Should employees be given social security during probation?

Legal analysis: It is illegal for a company not to buy social security for employees during the probation period, because as long as the labor contract is established, the company will pay social insurance for employees, and the probation period is included in the labor contract period. It is illegal not to pay social security during the probation period and pay it later.

Legal basis: Article 58 of People's Republic of China (PRC) Labor Contract 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.
