Is it paid by social security company or individual during maternity leave?

Social security for female employees during maternity leave, like during normal work, is paid by individuals and units. Because maternity leave is also a normal labor contract period, the employer must continue to pay social security during the labor contract period. The unit pays part according to the social security payment base of last month, and the individual pays part to the unit by himself, and the unit pays it uniformly. The employing unit shall not reduce the wages, dismiss or terminate the labor or employment contract of female employees because of pregnancy, childbirth and breastfeeding. During maternity leave, the unit has no right to deduct individual contributions, and employees should pay individual contributions to the unit at this time. However, workers do not have to bear the part of the unit payment. During maternity leave, the employee did not terminate the labor relationship with the unit, so the employer must continue to pay social insurance for the employee in accordance with the regulations, and the employee himself should continue to pay social insurance. Social security expenses during maternity leave shall be collected by the employer and handed over to the social security institution. During the period when working women receive maternity allowance, their units and individuals should still pay social insurance premiums according to regulations. The unit pays part according to the social security payment base of last month, and the individual pays part to the unit by himself, and the unit pays it uniformly. Of course, it can also be negotiated with the unit, which will withhold and remit it, or pay it in advance and then return it.

Legal basis:

Article 53 of the Social Insurance Law of People's Republic of China (PRC) * * * Employees shall participate in maternity insurance, and the employer shall pay maternity insurance premiums in accordance with state regulations, but employees shall not pay maternity insurance premiums.

Derivative problem:

What documents do I need to provide for maternity leave?

Identity card, marriage certificate, birth certificate, and one-child certificate (the one-child certificate is called the glorious certificate of the one-child parents, and couples who voluntarily have only one child for life).

Female workers who normally give birth in accordance with state regulations have the right to maternity leave and breastfeeding leave, which should be regarded as normal attendance. No unit or individual may unreasonably deduct their wages, benefits, subsidies and attendance bonuses, which will not affect their promotion and salary adjustment, and calculate their length of service. Otherwise, it violates the national labor law and infringes on the legitimate rights and interests of female employees. You can report to the relevant departments and apply for labor arbitration.
