TLDR : Answer Summary

The validity of a Non-B Visa extension is influenced by both the length of the employment contract and the work permit. If a foreigner stops working, they must cancel their work permit, which also affects the validity of their visa extension based on employment.

Kind of both. If you stop working then you have to cancel your work permit and your extension of stay based on working
