Det er en forutsetning at man er på jobb i kjernetiden og at avspasering av fleksitid i kjernetiden skal varsles minst tre dager i forveien.

time away for flexitime
Time off in lieu should not really be related to flexitime (see reference), but this company seems to be happy using it.
I would translate the sentence as follows, as the rule is describing how flexitime can be taken in the standard core hours, providing you apply for it in good time. It is not really compensation (like overtime payments) but the adjustment of flexitime hours.

Example sentence:
It is a requirement that employees are at work during core hours and that time away for flexitime during core hours is to be applied for at least three days in advance.

compensatory time off from flexi-time
avspasering can take a number of forms, but I find compensatory time covers most of the categories.
avspasering is often termed
"Time off with pay in lieu of overtime pay (irregular or occasional overtime work)"
but it not always...
flextime, flexi-time versus core time: see the wiki link below
