Is it legal for employers to require new employees to pay training fees? This is illegal. The company must bear the training expenses by itself. Article 68 of the Labor Law stipulates: "The employing unit shall establish a vocational training system, draw and use vocational training funds in accordance with state regulations, and carry out vocational training for workers in a planned way according to the actual situation of the unit." Article 28 of the Vocational Education Law stipulates: "An enterprise shall bear the vocational education expenses of its employees and employees. The specific measures shall be formulated by the relevant departments of the State Council in conjunction with the financial department of the State Council or by the people's governments of provinces, autonomous regions and municipalities directly under the Central Government according to law. " That is to say, it is the legal obligation of the company to carry out necessary vocational training and education, and it must bear the relevant expenses unconditionally. More importantly, after acquiring relevant skills through training, they can work better and create more and better benefits for the company. The company is undoubtedly the ultimate beneficiary of the training, and we can't think that this is only the employee's own business and has nothing to do with the company. It can be seen that it is illegal for companies to charge training fees and other fees. It is the obligation of the employer to train employees and bear the normal expenses, and the employer shall not pass it on to employees. These are Bian Xiao's answers to related questions.
