Oooh I dont know what you're referring to but I would like to
Japanese working culture is ... different.
https://metropolisjapan.com/resignation-agencies/
Tl:dr;
In Japan companies even do their best to not fire people and just bully them into quitting. So they don’t have to pay severance and also maintain their image. They will basically isolate employees from their colleagues and give them jobs that they weren’t even hired to do, like cleaning even though they have a cleaning crew. Like at Konami employees they wanted to let go of were forced to clean the Konami gyms.
Being isolated from your colleagues doesn’t sound that bad to us, but in Japan many people don’t have many friends outside of their coworkers. Not to mention everyone knows what is about to happen if they isolate you. It’s a way to shame you.
Basically they do shit that is straight up illegal in most western countries.
What prevents them for doing the same? Not doing their job until they are fired so they don't have to quit. I would guess that would be even more shameful
Easy to get blacklisted
Japanese principles of honorable work, fear of retribution in future jobs. They’re brought up to expect a very different relationship with their company, and end up with a self-abusive mentality that they must deserve the mistreatment.
