I have a family issue that needs to be taken care of back in my home country so I asked for 5 day leave. But my company’s rule is when a person takes one day leave, that person has to 残業 for a total of 8 hours on another day(s) within the leave month. So in my case, I need to 残業 for a total of 40h within a 3 weeks. Is it legal for my company to have this rule?
Additional info : This rule wasn’t stated in my contract. Also, my company does フレックスタイム制度(not sure whether this has any impact on enforcing this rule)
