【TOPIC】
Some people say that people in Japan spend too much time at work.
Do you agree with this opinion?
【My Opinion】
No, I disagree with the statement that people in Japan spend too
much time at work.
I have two reasons.
First of all, these days Japanese workers are able to use a paid vacation easily.
Also, Japanese company have to give paid vacation for employee at least 5days per year.(←本当は、日本の企業は従業員に最低でも5日間有給休暇を使わせる義務がある。と書きたいです。)
Secondly, Japanese workers can work at home.
They do not have to spend a lot of time to commute to the office.
This is also leads to work life balance.
For the reasons that I mentioned that I believe Japan does not spend a lot of time at work.

【My Opinion】
I disagree with the statement that people in Japan spend too
much time at work/are workaholics.
I have two reasons.
First of all, these days Japanese workers are able to get paid leave. By law companies have to provide at least five days of paid leave a year.
(←本当は、日本の企業は従業員に最低でも5日間有給休暇を使わせる義務がある。と書きたいです。)
Secondly, Japanese workers can work from home now. They do not have to spend a lot of time commuting to the office. This is leads to a better work life balance.
The two facts above have improved working conditions for Japanese employees and nowadays working is a lot less stressful than it was before.
