It's always very difficult to predict how long visa applications will take as it depends on a number of factors. I think the best thing to do would go to the nearest embassy of your home country and ask them to advise you on what to do if the work visa doesn't come on time. I think it's important to prepare for this possibility in advance because visas can sometimes take weeks to come through.
Best of luck.
