Does all social security include housing fund?

The housing fund is not part of social insurance.

The main items of social insurance include old-age insurance, medical insurance, unemployment insurance, industrial injury insurance, and maternity insurance.

2. Housing provident fund refers to the long-term housing reserve deposited by state organs, state-owned enterprises, urban collective enterprises, foreign-invested enterprises, urban private enterprises, and other urban enterprises, institutions, private non-enterprise units, and social organizations (hereinafter collectively referred to as "units") and their active employees.
