Is subsistence allowance and social security a card?

No, the difference between social security and subsistence allowance lies in the different scope of application, different duration and different application conditions. The minimum target is families who have lost their ability to work due to illness or other reasons and have a particularly difficult life. Social security is a social insurance system. Only by paying social security fees can you enjoy relevant social security benefits.

Minimum living security is the abbreviation of minimum living security for residents. The urban minimum living security system is established on the basis of the "three security lines" system, such as the basic living security for laid-off workers from state-owned enterprises, unemployment insurance and the minimum living security for urban residents.

Social security is social insurance, which refers to a non-profit social security system with income redistribution function, which is compulsory by the state to prevent and share social risks such as old age, unemployment, illness and death, including five types of insurance: endowment insurance, medical insurance, maternity insurance, unemployment insurance and industrial injury insurance.

1. What is the main difference between social security and subsistence allowances?

1, different ranges:

The main items of social insurance include endowment insurance, medical insurance, unemployment insurance, industrial injury insurance and maternity insurance.

The minimum living guarantee refers to families who have lost their labor force due to severe disability or illness of their family members and enjoy the minimum living guarantee.

2, the duration is different:

The subsistence allowance is not continuous, and may change with the changes of the parties.

Social security is continuous, such as endowment insurance. Those who meet the retirement conditions will receive a pension until their death, and their benefits will only increase.

3. Different conditions:

The minimum living allowance does not need to be insured, as long as it meets the conditions, you can enjoy the minimum living guarantee. The urban minimum living guarantee is a system to implement the minimum living guarantee on the basis of the "three guarantee lines" system such as the basic living guarantee for laid-off workers from state-owned enterprises, unemployment insurance and the minimum living guarantee for urban residents.

Social security needs to be insured and paid, and it can only be enjoyed after payment. The social insurance plan is organized by the government, forcing a certain group to use part of its income as social insurance tax (fee) to form a social insurance fund. Under certain conditions, the insured can get fixed income or loss compensation from the fund. It is a redistribution system, and its goal is to ensure the reproduction of material and labor and social stability.

Second, what are the relevant provisions of the minimum living guarantee?

Regulations on Minimum Living Security for Urban Residents

Article 8 Upon examination, the civil affairs department of the people's government at the county level shall, according to the following different situations, approve families that meet the conditions of enjoying the minimum living allowance for urban residents:

(a) for urban residents who have no source of income, no ability to work, and can't decide their dependents, dependents or dependents, they shall enjoy them in full according to the local minimum living guarantee standard for urban residents;

(two) for urban residents who still have a certain income, they are allowed to enjoy it according to the difference between the per capita income of the family and the local minimum living standard for urban residents.

Upon examination, the civil affairs department of the people's government at the county level shall notify the applicant in writing and explain the reasons if it does not meet the conditions for enjoying the minimum living guarantee for urban residents.

The administrative examination and approval authority shall complete the examination and approval procedures within 30 days from the date of receiving the applicant's application.

The minimum living guarantee for urban residents shall be paid monthly by the administrative examination and approval authority in the form of currency; When necessary, you can also pay in kind.

To sum up, social security and subsistence allowances are not comparable. If the parties are low-income households, the family is particularly difficult, but for low-income households, if they do not participate in social insurance, they naturally cannot enjoy social security benefits. Every year, the state gives low-income households a minimum living allowance, but the minimum living allowance is not eternal.
