Do I still need to buy social security after buying five insurances?

Legal analysis: No need. Social security itself already includes five insurances, namely, endowment insurance, medical insurance, maternity insurance, unemployment insurance and industrial injury insurance, so paying five insurances means paying social security. Among them, basic old-age insurance, medical insurance and unemployment insurance are jointly paid by employers and employees. Work injury insurance and maternity insurance are paid by the employer, and employees do not need to pay insurance premiums.

Legal basis: Article 2 of People's Republic of China (PRC) Social Insurance Law The state establishes social insurance systems such as basic old-age insurance, basic medical insurance, industrial injury insurance, unemployment insurance and maternity insurance. To ensure citizens' right to receive material assistance from the state and society in accordance with the law in cases of old age, illness, work injury, unemployment and maternity.
