4. 4 If I become physically or mentally unwell or get injured at my company, what should I do? Can I take time off work?

• You can also take time off work. Your company will have enrolled in something called Industrial Accident Compensation Insurance for times when you become sick or injured in connection with your work. If your company applies for and is approved for this insurance, the costs for your hospital visits will be covered, so you don’t need to worry about money. You can also take time off work. Even if you become unable to work due to severe illness or injury, you will not be forced to quit your company immediately.
• You can also take time off work if you become injured or ill outside of work. The number of days you are able to take off will vary by company, so first ask your company. You will not be forced to quit your company during that number of days.
• If the company has enrolled you in health insurance, you will be able to receive the money needed for treatment and a portion of your wages for the period you are unable to work for up to one and a half years. Please check with your employer about whether or not you are enrolled in its industrial accident insurance and health insurance. If you are a technical intern, seek advice from your supervising organization or from the Native Language Consultation Center of the Organization for Technical Intern Training (OTIT). (See 4-12.)

  1. Thanks for your tips on this blog. A single thing I would choose to say is that purchasing consumer electronics items in the Internet is nothing new. Actually, in the past 10 years alone, the marketplace for online electronic devices has grown noticeably. Today, you will discover practically any specific electronic system and product on the Internet, which include cameras as well as camcorders to computer components and gambling consoles.
