环卫工人工作环境极端、工作报酬低

A street cleaner who was sacked in China for warming himself over a fire in freezing conditions has been reinstated after a public outcry.

因烤火取暖而被辞退的环卫工人丁权近日被复职。

Ding Quan, 59, was re-employed by his cleaning company after it admitted its response last week was unfair, Chinese media report.

单位承认解雇丁权的决定是不公平的，并决定撤销此决定。

Mr Ding said he was trying to dry his gloves and coat when his supervisor drove past and took a photo of him.

丁权称，在他试图烘干手套和上衣的时候他的上司恰好开车经过并且拍下照片。

He was later told he had been fired for breaching anti-smog and safety rules.

之后，他接到单位的解职通知，称他的行为违反相关的环保法规和公共安全法规。

Mr Ding told China's Metro News he had started cleaning on a street in the northern province of Shaanxi at 06:00 and after three hours' work he had spotted a group of men around a fire.

He had joined them for 20 minutes when he was ordered by his supervisor to put the fire out, he said.

丁权称，他从六点就开始工作，几个小时后看到一群人围在火堆周围取暖便加入他们，大约二十分钟后他被上司发现并被命令将火扑灭。

The Xian company that employed Mr Ding, Golden Medal, said in a statement its decision had been "made with a lack of humanity and was inappropriate".

丁权所在单位西安金牌清洁家政绿化物业管理有限公司称，解雇丁权的决定缺乏人性而且是错误的。

The case sparked discussion on China's social media about the poor work conditions of the country's street cleaners.

丁权的事件在中国社交媒体中引起了热议，大家纷纷讨论中国环卫清洁工恶劣的工作环境。
