Can I get maternity allowance if I pay social security?

Individuals who pay social security can receive maternity allowance. However, during maternity leave, the salary paid by the company and the maternity allowance paid by the Social Security Bureau cannot be enjoyed at the same time; If the company has paid social security, the company does not need to pay wages to employees during maternity leave, but the company will apply for maternity allowance for female employees at the maternity insurance fund with the birth certificate, and the maternity allowance will be regarded as the salary of female employees during maternity leave. However, if the maternity insurance premium paid by enterprises for employees is lower than the average wage income of female employees in the previous year, it will lead to the maternity allowance received by female employees being lower than their wages during normal attendance, and enterprises need to make up the difference;
