Is it necessary to deduct the social security that individuals should pay when granting maternity allowance?

No need.

According to the Special Provisions on Labor Protection of Female Employees, the maternity allowance for female employees during maternity leave is paid by the maternity insurance fund according to the average monthly salary of employees in the previous year. Those who have not participated in maternity insurance shall be paid by the employer according to the wage standard of female employees before maternity leave. Maternity allowance is issued to support the family and has no direct relationship with personal social security, so maternity allowance does not need to be deducted from personal social security.
