Do I have to sign a labor contract to pay social security?

Legal analysis: signing a labor contract has nothing to do with paying social security, which is an obligation clearly stipulated by law. Although the laborer and the unit have not signed a labor contract, they have formed a labor relationship. However, due to the short entry time, whether the specific unit has paid you social security needs to be verified to avoid being deceived.

Legal basis: Article 10 of the Labor Contract Law of People's Republic of China (PRC) establishes labor relations, and a written labor contract shall be concluded. If a labor relationship has been established and a written labor contract has not been concluded at the same time, a written labor contract shall be concluded within one month from the date of employment. If the employer and the employee conclude a labor contract before employment, the labor relationship shall be established from the date of employment.
