Hi! Im new here in upwork. I would like to ask if clients are allowed to request security fee to their employees? They said it is reimbursable and it is an assurance that i will not quit half way.

Hi Ann Gellie,
I'm glad you came here to ask. Preston and Peter are correct. Asking freelancers to pay for work violates the Upwork Terms of Service.
If you haven't already, please report the client by following the steps here. Since you are new, I highly recommend that you read up on the "Safety First!" section of the freelancer resources we have compiled and these tips for avoiding questionable jobs for more information about working safely through Upwork
