What if I haven't paid social security for a month?

Legal analysis: as long as you are in the same city, you will automatically pay social security with the same account. The new company can continue to pay your social security, and the interruption period will not be affected. Social security is accumulated monthly, so you don't have to pay back the interrupted months, as long as you can accumulate 15 years on a monthly basis when you retire. Payment is voluntary. If you can afford it, you can do it yourself.

Legal basis: People's Republic of China (PRC) Social Insurance Law.

Article 2 The state establishes social insurance systems such as basic old-age insurance, basic medical insurance, industrial injury insurance, unemployment insurance and maternity insurance, so as to guarantee citizens' right to receive material assistance from the state and society in accordance with the law in case of old age, illness, industrial injury, unemployment and maternity.

Article 3 The social insurance system adheres to the principles of wide coverage, basic protection, multi-level and sustainability, and the level of social insurance should be compatible with the level of economic and social development.

Article 4 Employers and individuals in People's Republic of China (PRC) shall pay social insurance premiums according to law, and have the right to inquire about payment records and personal rights and interests records, and ask social insurance agencies to provide social insurance consultation and other related services.

Individuals enjoy social insurance benefits according to law and have the right to supervise the payment of their own units.
