What are the payment methods of social security?

Legal analysis: There are two main ways to pay social security: 1. Individuals can handle it themselves: if there is no work unit, individuals, freelancers and individual industrial and commercial households can handle it themselves as flexible employees, but individuals can only pay pension and medical insurance. 2. Payment through the company: For employees who sign labor contracts with the employer, the employer will withhold and remit them, and employees need not worry.

Legal basis: Article 4 of the Social Insurance Law of People's Republic of China (PRC) * * * Employers and individuals in People's Republic of China (PRC) pay social insurance premiums according to law, and have the right to inquire about payment records and personal rights and interests records, and ask social insurance agencies to provide social insurance consultation and other related services.
