Shimou is a technical safety officer of a large cement production and processing plant in this city. In the middle of last year, the company introduced new production equipment from Germany and entrusted German consultants to conduct a six-month closed safety training for 30 technical safety officers, including Shimou. In June 5438+10, safety training was finished and new mechanical equipment was put into production. However, during the training period, Shimou and others found that the factory did not pay the wages during this period to Shimou and others, and Shimou and others jointly reported the problems to the factory, demanding payment of wages and compensation for related expenses during the training period. Then, should the factory pay wages to employees such as Shimou during the training period?

In order to carry out production more safely and efficiently, production enterprises will provide employees with safety production training. During this period, workers have the right and should receive their own wages, because the purpose of training is to consider the long-term economic benefits of the production enterprise, and employees are also affiliated with the enterprise to complete the tasks stipulated by the enterprise, but the form of the tasks is different from normal workshop production. To sum up, workers pay their own labor in another form of brain power, so they should be paid by the factory. Article 23 of China's "Regulations on Safety Training of Production and Business Units" stipulates: "Production and business units shall pay the wages and necessary expenses during the period of arranging safety training for employees." In this case, Shimou and other safety technicians were trained by the factory in order to put new equipment into production and create benefits for the enterprise. Participating in the unified training of the factory is also a form of working for the factory. At the same time, according to the explicit provisions of Chinese laws, Shimou and others have the right to get their own salary during the training period, and the factory should bear the relevant expenses incurred during this period.

Employees should be paid during safety training, which shows that our country fully respects and recognizes the labor forms of employees, and at the same time, it can protect workers from getting the due labor remuneration while bringing safety benefits to enterprises.
