Rail firm withheld ¥43 (28p) on ‘no work, no pay’ principle, but driver says delay was not his fault
A train driver in Japan is suing his employer after it docked ¥43 (28p) from his wages over a one-minute delay that he claims was not his fault.
West Japan Railway Company (JR West) said it withheld the tiny sum by applying its strict “no work, no pay” principle over the incident, which occurred in June last year.
