The labor law stipulates that the employer shall provide laborers with labor hygiene conditions and necessary labor protection articles that meet the state regulations. However, a media reporter recently learned from an interview that many employers, especially some construction sites, are now "popular" to issue subsidies and subsidies for labor insurance products, allowing workers to purchase them by themselves.

As we all know, labor protective equipment refers to personal protective equipment equipped by production and operation units for employees to prevent or reduce accident injuries and occupational hazards in the process of labor. Labor protection equipment is an important line of defense to ensure the safety and health of employees.

As early as September 1, 2005, Article 15 of the "Regulations on the Supervision and Administration of Labor Protection Articles", which was officially implemented as early as September 1, 2005, stipulated that "production and business units should arrange special funds for the provision of labor protection articles", it clearly requires "Production and business units shall not substitute currency or other items for labor protection articles that should be provided as required."
