# Working from there

Can I actually do my job from there?

Timezone overlap, shared working days, working hours and leave, measured connection quality, digital government and the nearest cloud region.

### [Team Timezone Friction Scorer](https://geo-parity.com/meeting-planner/)

Score a distributed team's timezone overlap (0–100), find the golden-hour everyone shares, and flag the isolated 'lone wolf'.

GET /api/meeting.json

### [Cloud Region Selector](https://geo-parity.com/cloud-region-selector/)

Pick the cloud region that minimizes latency for your real user base — and see whether a multi-region split pays off.

GET /api/region.json

### [Shared Working Days](https://geo-parity.com/work/?tab=holidays)

Weekdays a distributed team is genuinely all at work — public holidays joined across countries — plus countries ranked by holidays.

### [Internet Quality Ranking](https://geo-parity.com/work/?tab=connectivity)

Measured latency, jitter and speed by country from Cloudflare Radar — whether you can actually take the call.

GET /api/connectivity.json

### [Team Calendar](https://geo-parity.com/work/?tab=calendar)

When a multi-country team can actually all work: shared working days joined to daily timezone overlap, as hours per year.

GET /api/team-calendar.json

### [Working Hours & Parental Leave](https://geo-parity.com/work/?tab=hours)

Hours actually worked per week and per year, and the paid leave the law gives mothers and fathers — measured, by country.

## Every figure here is computed, not collected

Nothing on this site is a crowdsourced estimate or an editorial top ten. Each tool runs a published dataset — World Bank, IMF, OECD, Eurostat, WHO, HUD — through an engine you can call yourself, and every JSON response carries a citation naming the source and the year it refers to. Where a figure is modelled rather than measured, the page says so.

Each tool above has a free JSON API and an MCP tool, listed on the card. See [how it works](https://geo-parity.com/about/) or the [ranked answers](https://geo-parity.com/best/) if you would rather start from a shortlist than a calculator.

Not sure which tool to start with? [Ask the adviser](https://geo-parity.com/adviser/) what matters to you (Pro), and it will work through these figures for you.

## Days you are both actually working

Timezone overlap tells you which hours you share. This tells you which *days* — weekdays when neither side is on a public holiday. Holidays falling at a weekend are ignored, because they cost nobody a working day.

**241** shared working days in 2026, out of 261 weekdays.

20 weekdays lost because one side is off: United Kingdom 5, Japan 16 .

Nationwide public holidays only — regional days (Germany's Länder, Spain's comunidades) are excluded, since they are not observed countrywide. Source: Nager.Date, updated 2026-09-07. No calendar published for Azerbaijan, Bhutan, Brunei, Fiji, India, Iran, Israel, Jordan, Kuwait, Kyrgyzstan, Laos, Lebanon, Malaysia, Maldives, Mauritius, Myanmar, Nepal, Oman, Pakistan, Qatar, Saudi Arabia, Sri Lanka, Tajikistan, Thailand, United Arab Emirates, Uzbekistan.
