Interpretation of the Standing Committee of Shenzhen Municipal People's Congress on Article 58 of the Regulations of Shenzhen Special Economic Zone on Promoting Harmonious Labor Relations

The fourth meeting of the Standing Committee of the Sixth Shenzhen Municipal People's Congress considered the proposal submitted by the Shenzhen Intermediate People's Court on the interpretation of Article 58 of the Regulations of Shenzhen Special Economic Zone on Promoting the Harmony of Labor Relations, and the explanation is as follows:

If the laborer claims that the employer shall bear the lawyer's agency fee, it shall be put forward together in the labor dispute arbitration or litigation. However, as the respondent or defendant of arbitration, the appellee or the respondent of retrial, the employee cannot make arbitration request or litigation request.

The maximum amount is not more than 5,000 yuan, which refers to the upper limit of the total amount of lawyer's agency fees paid to the employer by the labor dispute arbitration institution or the people's court in the whole process of handling a labor dispute (including arbitration, litigation, execution and other stages).
