Why should social security be enforced?

Social security is compulsory for employers, not for individuals. As long as the laborer forms a labor relationship with the employer and signs a labor contract, the employer must pay social insurance premiums for the laborer in full and on time. If the employer fails to pay social insurance in accordance with the regulations, the laborer has the right to claim compensation. However, social security can also be paid in the name of individuals. If there is no work unit, whether to pay social security is freely chosen by individuals.
