Open Meeting Planner →Sydney is a finance city and Johannesburg a mining city; the two economies buy from each other rather than compete. Sydney runs 9 hours ahead of Johannesburg.
The working week is Monday to Friday on both sides: roughly 09:00–17:30 in Sydney and 08:00–17:00 in Johannesburg. Watch for Australia Day (26 January) and Anzac Day (25 April) in Sydney and Heritage Day (24 September) and Freedom Day (27 April) in Johannesburg. Replies slow in Sydney during Christmas to the end of January, the summer holidays and in Johannesburg during mid-December to mid-January.
There is no hour when both offices are open, only the edges: an early start in Johannesburg meets a late finish in Sydney. Alternate who stretches, and keep those calls short. Only Sydney changes its clocks, so the gap shifts by an hour twice a year while Johannesburg stays put.
Sydney is 9 hours ahead of Johannesburg. The gap changes by an hour around the clock changes.
There is no hour when both offices are open. The closest is early morning in Johannesburg against the end of the day in Sydney; alternate which side takes the awkward slot.
Alternate. A standing call that is always 07:00 for Johannesburg or always 19:00 for Sydney is resented within a month; rotating it keeps both sides in the room.
For the working day, yes — the gap is not wide enough to push office hours across midnight.
