Is the social security of the self-employed the same as that of the company?

1, the two kinds of social insurance are different: self-employed individuals pay social insurance as long as they pay endowment insurance and medical insurance. The company needs to pay five items for employees: endowment insurance, medical insurance, unemployment insurance, work injury insurance and maternity insurance.

2. The social security expenses they need to bear are different: self-employed individuals pay social security by themselves, and all the expenses are borne by individuals. Individuals can choose the social security payment base according to their own conditions. The company pays social security for employees, and the expenses are borne by the company and employees themselves. Employees only need to bear a small part. The social security expenses of ordinary employees are paid by the company first, and then the corresponding social security expenses are deducted from the employees' wages.

Legal basis: Article 58 of People's Republic of China (PRC) Social Insurance Law. The employing unit shall handle social insurance registration for employees within 30 days from the date of employment. If the social insurance has not been registered, the social insurance agency shall verify the social insurance premium it should pay. Employees-free individual industrial and commercial households who voluntarily participate in social insurance, part-time employees who do not participate in social insurance in the employing unit and other flexible employees shall apply to the social insurance agency for social insurance registration. The state establishes a national unified personal social security number. Personal social security number is a citizen's identity number.
