Do retirees have cooling and heating fees?

Legal analysis: No, the general cooling fee is paid to people who are still working under certain high temperature conditions. Retirees have left their jobs, and there is no high-temperature operation, which is not within the scope of payment. As for the heating fee, it is also a kind of welfare treatment for employees of affiliated enterprises between enterprises. Retirees are very concerned. Under normal circumstances, the retired employees of the unit carry the heating bill every year and submit it to the original unit for reimbursement of their annual heating bill. It's not illegal to give it.
