Mandatory regular leave also low discretionary status
The benefits packages talked about in NTT retirement entries "eh...that's not common in the IT industry..." are increasing, so it's time for a turnaround move opportunity from HR PR.
I'm an outsider to NTT, but I feel that the degree to which the regular leave day is enforced is quite high. We've been doing this for more than 10 years now, and it's well established.
When I saw this exchange, I was shocked and said, "What, you think it's positive that people are forced to leave work on time? (Maybe it's an antonymic joke.)
My understanding is that a state in which each individual is able to self-determination how to use his/her life is a good state, and a state in which "uniformly forcing everyone to act in a certain way" is a bad state. Therefore, forced overtime work and forced leaving work on time are equally bad.
- Some people consider C to be a [white company](/en/white%20company) based on the amount of overtime work y whether [business that exploits its employees (e.g. unpaid overtime, etc.)](/en/business%20that%20exploits%20its%20employees%20(e.g.%20unpaid%20overtime%2C%20etc.)) or not.
- On the other hand, from a perspective that emphasizes individual self-determination x, both C and A are bad.
- It is not written here, but it is out of bounds to violate the laws and regulations.
- [forced closing of a business or office (e.g. due to taxation)](/en/forced%20closing%20of%20a%20business%20or%20office%20(e.g.%20due%20to%20taxation)) also [discretion](/en/discretion) is low
