If you think the employer's regulations are unreasonable, you can choose to change companies or communicate with them directly to see why you have to pay them. I can understand if it is put in my own locker and is not allowed to be taken in the workplace, otherwise I think it is a bit illegal to occupy other people's property. Generally, many high-tech electronics companies are not allowed to bring their own mobile phones in the workplace, but no managers have handed them in. If it's lost, whose is it? Who's to blame for an emergency at home and no one to find? Generally, they have their own lockers, which can be used outside the company during meals or private breaks. How can you just hand it in?
