Is it legal for the company to require employees to bear half of the social security?

In violation of the law, China's social security consists of five insurances: pension, medical care, unemployment, work injury and maternity, which are called five insurances. Among them, employees need to pay part of the pension, medical care and unemployment insurance, but only a small part. If the employer requires its employees to bear half of the social security expenses, it is illegal to apply for labor arbitration according to the relevant provisions of the Labor Contract Law.
