Do I need to buy social security for a long-term part-time job

Whether it is necessary to buy social security for long-term part-time jobs depends on the relationship between employers and part-time employees.

Whether long-term part-time employees need to pay social security depends on the specific relationship between employers and part-time employees. If there is a labor relationship, the employer may need to pay a certain social security fee for part-time employees; If it is a labor relationship, there is usually no need to pay social security. For part-time employees, employers generally only need to pay work-related injury insurance premiums, but do not have to pay pension, medical care, maternity and unemployment insurance. The social insurance expenses of the dispatched employees shall be paid by the dispatching unit, and the employer does not need to pay them again.

Basic concepts of social security:

5. The social security system has different implementation rules and welfare levels in different countries and regions.

To sum up, whether long-term part-time employees need to buy social security depends on the relationship between employers and part-time employees. If there is a labor relationship, the employer may need to pay a certain social security fee for part-time employees; However, in labor relations, there is usually no need to pay social insurance. For part-time employees, employers generally only need to pay work-related injury insurance premiums, and do not need to pay pension, medical care, maternity and unemployment insurance. The social insurance premium of the dispatched employees shall be paid by the dispatching unit, and the employer does not need to pay it again. Therefore, whether it is necessary to purchase social security should be determined according to the relationship between specific employers and part-time employees.
