Wearing half‑pants (this may be Japanese English, I'm not sure simply shorts or short trousers is the correct word) is now allowed for Tokyo Metropolitan Government employees for the summertime dress code. I don't think it will actually reduce discomfort in their offices, though. The absurd indoor temperature is reportedly regulated at 28°C by so-called experts decades ago without legitimate health evidences and now hired in most of public places including schools in Japan.
A new dress code won’t improve the working environment, and frankly, I don't want to see public officers dressed in hairy legs. I'm also curious how public officers in New York, London, Sydney, Dublin, or Manila wear during mid‑summer, obviously they don’t rely on dress code to compensate for poorly regulated office temperatures.
The best solution for summer heat is simply to lower the office temperature, at least to around 26°C. Ultimately, a more effective approach would be to reform their working styles and reduce the number of active staffs by giving longer vacations, closer to the level seen in European countries.

Wearing half‑pants (this may be Japanese English, I'm not sure simply shorts or short trousers is the correct word) is now allowed for Tokyo Metropolitan Government employees for the summertime dress code.
Does the word 'capris' or 'cropped pants' capture what you mean to say? A few decades ago, here in the USA, culottes were popular.
I don't think it will actually reduce discomfort in their offices, though. I don't think it will actually reduce discomfort in their offices, though.
This sentence is just fine as is. In a way, though, it's a double negative. Try saying: "I don't think it will increase comfort in their offices though."

For tense agreement (is to was), and instead of regulated, do you mean the setting was manipulated or moved to a certain temperature?

This is okay! It's a creative use of 'dressed in'. You might more commonly see: "I don't want to see the hairy legs of public officers."

regulated sounds better here. I would not use 'set at' here.

Staff is plural. And one can assume 'active' in this senetence.

You were close! You were looking for "trouser shorts".
I think the verb "to permit" is better suited for this situation.

It's best to break this up into two sentences.
You need to rearrange the structure of your sentence so that events and assumptions flow better. For example, you called the indoor temperature absurd before the reader knew what the temperature was set to. You also tied "experts from decades ago" to the present tense for "is". Small adjustments like the ones I've provided will help clarify these points of confusion.

People just possess hairy legs in English, you can't really "dress in" them.
I'm also curious howwhat public officers in New York, London, Sydney, Dublin, or Manila wear during mid‑summer,. They obviously they don’t rely on dress code to compensate for poorly regulated office temperatures.

Just a small note: While it may be obvious to you that those other public offices don't rely on dress code, but to the reader it is not. It would be good to provide a line or two providing examples to back your POV, if you want to use the word "obvious".

"Tokyo Met Government" might be alright in casual writing, but for a title I'd probably avoid it in this case. In casual writing, you might even be able to write "Tokyo Met Gov", but I don't know if either way of shortening this is technically correct.
Wearing half‑pants (this may be Japanese English, I'm not sure simply shorts or short trousers is the correct word) (knee-length) shorts is now allowed for Tokyo Metropolitan Government employees for their summertime dress code.
Wearing (knee-length) shorts is now allowed for Tokyo Metropolitan Government employees for their summertime dress code.
You are correct, it is Japanese English! You can just write "shorts", but if you want to be more exact, you can add "knee-length".

"dressed in hairy legs" while not technically correct, does work given the context. It gives a more "playing with words" feel to point out how absurd it is to you, if that makes sense. The more literal version would be "public officers' hairy legs".

That's certainly an interesting way to address the heat lol, but I agree it seems to be a half-baked solution when more comprehensive change is needed.
