Is social security paid by yourself or by the company?

Social security is paid by the company. Companies pay social security, and once they are unemployed, they can also receive a certain amount of career insurance money from social security agencies within a certain period of time, and they can also be exempted from paying medical insurance money for two years. And this part of the money is divided, which is very different. Because some people don't want to work immediately after leaving their jobs, but want to take a break before going to work. And this unemployment benefit can help the parties to maintain their lives for a period of time. If individuals pay social security, there is no such thing as receiving unemployment insurance.

Legal basis: Article 41 of People's Republic of China (PRC) Social Insurance Law.

If the employer fails to pay the work-related injury insurance premium according to law and an industrial accident occurs, the employer shall pay the work-related injury insurance benefits. If the employer does not pay, it shall pay in advance from the industrial injury insurance fund.

The industrial injury insurance benefits paid in advance from the industrial injury insurance fund shall be repaid by the employer. If the employer fails to repay, the social insurance agency may recover the compensation in accordance with the provisions of Article 63 of this Law.
