A study by Second Labo Co., Ltd. reveals that while nurses' annual holidays average 117.7 days—surpassing the national average—56.1% of staff suffer from a 'Single-off Loop' with two or fewer consecutive days off per month. Many nurses report that single holidays following night shifts are spent solely on recovery, leaving no time for personal quality of life. The report emphasizes that healthcare work-style reform must shift from increasing holiday quantity to ensuring holiday quality.
