Is this joke funny that employees will be compensated for not working overtime?

This is not a joke, but a fact, but this fact must be enclosed in double quotes. Although overtime is outside the provisions of the Labor Law, and overtime must be paid, under certain circumstances, if the company needs it and it is specified in the contract, then employees are obliged to cooperate with the company in working overtime. In addition to overtime compensation, companies must also compensate employees in the form of "paid holidays."

Although this is the most ideal state, these conditions cannot be seen in the actual management process. Employees who do not work overtime must compensate the company for losses. It depends on the situation and cannot be generalized. Article 32 of the Labor Law also had relevant provisions, but the boundaries were relatively vague.

1. When natural disasters, accidents or other reasons occur that seriously threaten the safety and health of the people and national assets and require emergency treatment;

2. Production equipment, transportation Transportation lines and transportation facilities failed. Affecting production and public interests, it must be repaired in time;

3. It is necessary to use legal holidays or public holidays to carry out equipment inspection and maintenance during the shutdown period;

4. Failure to complete the national defense Taboo tasks, or completing other emergency production tasks arranged by superiors outside the national plan, and commercial and supply and marketing enterprises completing urgent tasks of purchasing, transporting, and processing agricultural and sideline products during peak seasons.

In other words, if the above conditions are met, employees who refuse to work overtime will be held responsible and compensate the company for losses. And this is also based on the law and is not fabricated out of thin air.

However, in daily work, ordinary private companies will not encounter these situations. That is to say, if these special circumstances are not included, because employees refuse to work overtime and cause losses to the company, then the company There is no right to ask for compensation from employees. If an employee's salary is deducted privately to replace the company's losses, this is also suspected of being illegal, and similar time can be resolved through labor arbitration.

In addition, everyone should note that if an employee refuses to work overtime, the company has the right to ask the employee to compensate for the loss, but the company cannot ask the employee to compensate for the corresponding loss. If a company believes that employees' failure to work overtime has caused the company to suffer losses, it can sue the employees to court. This is the company's right. It is another matter for the court to support the company's request or reject the company's request based on the actual situation.
