Can the unit help employees pay social security?

Units can help employees pay social security.

Units can pay social security for employees, but they must meet the following conditions: in case the unit fails to declare, it can only pay old-age insurance. If the payment is interrupted after a period of time, it can be paid through the agency. If the unit fails to pay the old-age insurance premium for employees, it is necessary to bring relevant materials to the social security agency to handle the overdue matters. When paying back social security, if the employee's accumulated payment period reaches 15 and reaches retirement age, there is no need to pay back. If an individual is nominally insured and fails to pay, it can't be repaid. Only when the unit causes a missed payment can the five insurances be paid.

Payment rules of social security:

1. Payer: Generally, the employer and the individual * * * bear the social security expenses and pay them separately according to the prescribed proportion;

2. payment base: the social security payment base is generally linked to the salary income of employees and calculated according to a certain proportion;

3. Payment ratio: Different types of social security (pension, medical care, unemployment, work injury and maternity insurance) have different payment ratios;

4. Payment time: Social security payment is generally made on a monthly basis and needs to be completed within the specified time;

5. Repayment regulations: units and individuals can repay unpaid social security fees in accordance with relevant policies;

6. Policy differences: Social security policies are different in different regions, and specific payment rules need to be implemented with reference to local policies.

To sum up, the company can pay social security for employees. The conditions include that the old-age insurance can only be paid back, the interrupted payment can be paid through the agent, the materials must be brought to the social security agency to deal with the company's missed payment, and the five insurances can only be paid back if the company causes the missed payment, but the employees or individuals who meet the payment conditions of 15 and reach retirement age cannot pay back.
