Breaking a work agreement

Hi. I have got a government job which is with high pay and I have signed for a 3 year contract but unfortunately my health is not supproting with the climate conditions here. Is there any chance to cancel my agreement?? What are the consequences, if I break the contract?? Please let me know, your answer will be very helpful for me,
thanks in advance.

if you want to quit your job, you can do it. in this case, you are not healthy, you just say that you go home to your country to heal it.

This should be discussed with your work, since you have a contract, which may be stated the way of canceling your work. If you do not understand your contract you need to talk with your boss or human resource department.

Yes please discuss it with your employer – standard contract might have 1 month notice period for terminating your contract (by law if you give notice you can leave in 2 weeks I believe). They might ask you to stay a bit until they find a replacement, but thatfs up to them and your discussions with them.

Consequences: you say your health and the climate here donft agree, so I assume you will be leaving Japan soon. So you wonft have any issue with the employer notifying the immigration authorities (as they must, just like yourself) and the immigration authorities gpossiblyh voiding your resident status. The company gmighth ask you to reimburse certain expenses theyfve incurred for bringing you onboard, but thatfs also up to your discussions with them.

Certainly you can terminate a contract for health reason – best wishes.

Other factor is if the company you work for in Japan paid for your move to the country e.g. rent, travel, food etc for relocation check what the terms are for repayment. Most companies have a 12 month period of if you leave within the first 12 months you have to pay back what they spent.
