Employers with 1,000+ staff reporting the least monthly overtime
Employers with 1,000+ staff, listed and unlisted. Average monthly overtime per employee as each reports it. Averages under one hour are left out, as they are unlikely to be measured on the same basis. These are self-reported, and the lowest figures often reflect how a company counts overtime or a workforce with many part-time staff, so read each with the company's page.
1,957 employers qualify, with a median of 14.2 hrs. Schoen Corporation leads at 1.0 hrs; the top 50 run to 3.0 hrs. 16 of the top 50 are in Healthcare & welfare, none is a listed company and one is the Japan subsidiary of a foreign group.
