What is the personal social security number?

The social security number is everyone's social security search number. According to the provisions of Article 58 of the Social Insurance Law, the individual social security number is the citizen identity number. [ 1]? At present, although ID numbers are widely used as search numbers in various places, there are still some search numbers in computer numbers, artificial numbers and other places.

Hu Xiaoyi, Vice Minister of Ministry of Human Resources and Social Security, said in 2009 that it is a long-term goal to implement a unified national social security number and social security card.

Unifying the national social security number and social security card is a long-term goal.

On June 1 1, 2009, Hu Xiaoyi, Vice Minister of Ministry of Human Resources and Social Security, accepted an exclusive interview with the Chinese government website and exchanged views with netizens on "accelerating the improvement of the social security system and focusing on safeguarding and improving people's livelihood".

[Moderator] Netizens have an imagination that pension insurance, medical insurance, unemployment insurance, industrial injury insurance and maternity insurance are now managed by departments. Can you manage all the information under one name and follow the citizens?

[Hu Xiaoyi] This is our goal, and so are we. Endowment insurance, medical insurance, unemployment insurance, industrial injury insurance and maternity insurance are all managed by human resources and social security departments. However, due to different starting times, different progress and different coverage areas, it is our long-term goal to implement a unified national social security number and social security card. I can tell you a piece of news. Now there is a card design. This card is very open and inclusive. It can contain not only five risks, but also other information. At present, more than 80 million cards are allowed. Now we should speed up the speed of issuing cards and spread them to the whole people as soon as possible.

But I also want to say that this matter is not as simple as everyone seems. The support behind it is: first, all information and data standards should be unified nationwide, and second, they can be networked nationwide and used everywhere, otherwise the card will be invalid. There is a lot of work behind. Why has 80 million cards been issued now, and those who can meet these two conditions are approved to issue cards? Some areas are working hard and have not yet reached this standard. You can only use these cards locally, but not all over the country. We should speed up this process.
