When I submitted a Formal Complaint for harassment at work, the treatment got worse.
They made a PIP^(Performance Improvement Plan ) and they listed all kinds of unreasonable things.
One of them is that I used to wait at work for an hour or two after work until the traffic calmed down before leaving, but now I'm being told to leave as soon as I finish work. I'm not applying for overtime pay, and if I have any work left to do, I just do it while I'm waiting. I understand that HR is the enemy.
What is the best place to get help with retaliation at work ??

Are you an exempt employee ? or a non-exempt ?
If the latter, it would be bad for labor law if you stay in the workplace.
Even if you are not claiming overtime pay, it could put you at a disadvantage as an employer.
I think they are raising their guard now that you have complained, rather than retaliation.

Going to the gym near your office is a great idea.

A quick workout, shower and go home is good for your health and may save you a little on utility bills ?

24, LA Fitness, 19, or Gold are not expensive, and depending on your membership, you can go to a gym near your house! I guess.

In any case, I think it's a waste of time to stay at the office for an hour or two after work. Why don't you start work 2 hours later?

Sai

Company HR is more concerned about protecting the company than the employees, so they are picky about one minute more from working hours.
That's a defense to not lose in a court of law if you are doing it according to the rules.

Japanese companies are weak against harassment and will not deal with power harassment by saying it will help their work, or they try to make it go away with the facts on paper.
I think it is necessary to determine whether what you perceive as harassment is really harassment ( or harassment by a bullying ) person with a mental illness.
If it is too severe, you may want to consider changing jobs.

If the person is bullying you, you may want to threaten HR a little, such as by consulting your own lawyer, but in the small Japanese society, it may be known that you have caused a mess, which may hinder your job change.
You could file a claim with the Ministry of Labor after you change jobs, but you would need proof and a record of what happened each time.

2 - You might consider taking 3 days off to calm down and change your mind ?.

It's kind of a waste if you've been working there for over 10 years.
Maybe you were just verbally warned at first, but I don't know if you overreacted or were offended by the way they said it, but the company is probably treating HR as a so-called difficult employee. is PIP due in 30 days or so ?

The only thing you can do is to either change jobs, or if you want to stay with the company, you have to be recognized for doing your job well and following the company's policies.
Otherwise, the next step is likely to be termination ↓.

What is PIP ?
PIP stands for Performance Improvement Plan. It is also called a business improvement plan. It is an initiative to encourage employees with low performance ratings to improve their performance. The employee and improvement goals are set and progress is regularly monitored, and efforts are also made to improve skills.

In other words, it's a backhanded way of not admitting you're wrong.

If you hire a lawyer or file an application with the Department of Labor, with the HR department treating you like a nuisance, you'll feel even more uncomfortable at the company. You can't change the company or the harasser. You should think about applying to another department or some other way to get away from the jerks. I feel like you should consider changing jobs when the company doesn't think of you as a valuable asset to the company.

Maybe the harassment in the workplace is not something that is against the law and the harasser is in a better position than the harasser. Personnel also don't act unreasonably because they are usually backed by a permanent lawyer. If I used my workplace all the time for personal reasons until the traffic stops, I'd want to be careful. There are security issues.

When you put out the official compaines, you had a problem with staying in the company after working. Originally, it sounds like the company didn't want you to stay or see it as a problem, it hasn't been a problem for 10 years. Perhaps they are taking precautions in case of a court case, etc.

You don't know that until you ask. Maybe they didn't like it? Maybe you've always seen it as a problem? People will interpret what is convenient for them and not look at what is inconvenient. The Lord hasn't responded to posts that seem inconvenient, and I'm sure that's what you mean.

I'm talking about both sides.

I wasn't speculating or actually writing.

>2 My colleagues other than me are fine and remain at work as before
did you write earlier? If you wrote it now for the first time, it seems to be much later.
I feel uncomfortable that you wrote about not being a talking point, but you didn't mention your coworkers' overtime work, which I think is important. In any case, if the company doesn't want me to stay after working hours, I would normally leave.
It seems strange that they don't like to leave when they don't even pay overtime, and they might even warn you that you are making up a reason to sue them.
Remember, it is not your home.
It would be a little easier to understand if you think that you are trying to stay on the company's premises for your own convenience.
