How much is the high temperature subsidy in Wenzhou?
In 2020, the high-temperature subsidy will continue to be implemented in accordance with the relevant provisions of the Notice of Zhejiang Provincial Department of Human Resources and Social Security on Relevant Issues Concerning the Adjustment of the Summer High-temperature Allowance Standard for Enterprises (Zhejiang People's Social Development [2018] No.65).
High temperature allowance standard
The summer high temperature allowance standard for enterprise employees is 300 yuan per person per month for outdoor workers; 200 yuan for indoor staff per person per month.
Release time
The distribution time is 4 months (June, July, August and September).
Matters needing attention
If the nature of work flows back and forth between outdoor and indoor, or the main working time is outdoors, or in front of a high-temperature furnace, it is regarded as outdoor work.
Summer high temperature allowance is not included in the minimum wage. Enterprises shall not reduce the wages of workers due to the increase of high temperature allowance. Enterprises that stop work and shorten working hours due to hot weather shall not deduct or reduce the wages of workers.
In addition, enterprises should continue to provide cool drinks in the workplace while granting summer high temperature allowance.
