Hello. I am looking for eligiblity for the Federal Skilled Worker Program. Does "1 year of continuous work" means I have to work in the same company for 1 year, or is a reasonable time between jobs (in the same NOC) allowed? I worked 1,476 hours in a company, took 1 week of vacation and then worked some months in another company.

No, it doesn't have to be for the same company. However it needs to be under the same NOC and without breaks. If you had time between jobs and it wasn't a paid vacation then the 1 year clock resets.
