There is the number "13.00" written behind this term. Could it mean "overtime worked during holidays"?

remains of given paid vacation


Explanation:
In Japan comanies usually give certain numbers of paid vacation for a year to their employees (for example, 20 days/year).
And the number of "有休残" indicates how many days you still have for that year out of the given vacations.
For example, "有休残" are 15 days, and your given vacation days are 20, this means you already took 5 days off.
I hope you find this helpful.
