Is it reasonable for the Social Security Administration to charge private companies for training operations?

It is generally not legal for a start-up company to charge a training fee.

The Labor Contract Law stipulates, "Employers shall establish a system of vocational training, withdraw and use funds for vocational training in accordance with state regulations, and plan vocational training for workers according to the actual situation of the unit. Workers engaged in skilled trades must undergo training before taking up their jobs."

Article 9 of the Provisions on Vocational Training in Enterprises stipulates, "Enterprises shall include vocational training in the medium- and long-term planning and annual plan of the organization, and ensure training funds and other training conditions."

The Labor Contract Law also stipulates that employers may not recruit workers, withhold their resident's identity cards or other documents, or require them to provide guarantees or collect property from them on other pretexts.

According to the law, if an employer provides special training expenses for a worker to train him or her in a specialized field, the employer may enter into an agreement with the worker to stipulate a period of service, and the employer may not collect property from the worker in the form of a guarantee or otherwise.

Training for workers and bearing the normal costs is an obligation that the employer should fulfill, and the employer shall not transfer it to the workers.
