If the employer fails to declare the amount of social insurance premiums that should be paid according to the regulations, the amount that should be paid shall be determined according to 1 10% of the amount paid by the unit last month; After the payment unit completes the declaration procedures, the social insurance fee collection agency shall make settlement in accordance with the provisions.
