Open Meeting Planner →Mexico City is a manufacturing city and Johannesburg a mining city; the two economies buy from each other rather than compete. The gap is 8 hours, with Johannesburg the one whose clock reads later — and whose date has often already turned.
The working week is Monday to Friday on both sides: roughly 09:00–18:00 in Mexico City and 08:00–17:00 in Johannesburg. On the Mexico City side the dates that break a schedule are Day of the Dead (1–2 November) and Independence Day (16 September); on the Johannesburg side, Heritage Day (24 September) and Freedom Day (27 April).
There is no hour when both offices are open, only the edges: an early start in Mexico City meets a late finish in Johannesburg. Alternate who stretches, and keep those calls short. Neither city observes daylight saving, so the gap holds all year.
Johannesburg is 8 hours ahead of Mexico City. The gap is the same all year.
There is no hour when both offices are open. The closest is early morning in Mexico City against the end of the day in Johannesburg; alternate which side takes the awkward slot.
Alternate. A standing call that is always 07:00 for Mexico City or always 19:00 for Johannesburg is resented within a month; rotating it keeps both sides in the room.
Not always. At 09:00 in Mexico City it is already the next calendar day in Johannesburg, so every invitation should carry the date in both cities.
