Does Hefei need to apply for social security now?

Yes, paying social security is a mandatory requirement of the labor bureau for enterprises at present. The reason why the Labor Bureau forces enterprises to pay employees is actually from the perspective of protecting workers. At present, for the five insurances in Hefei (maternity and work-related injuries are paid by the unit, but not by the individual), the individual only needs to pay 1 1%, and the unit needs to pay 27.66%. According to the lowest payment base in Hefei at present, individuals only need to withhold 223.63 yuan from their wages every month, while units need to pay more than 560 yuan. Therefore, it is easy to pay insurance. Don't worry that the salary just graduated is not high, and you don't want to pay insurance or anything. If you pay the insurance, you can still reimburse yourself in case of illness and hospitalization. There are also work-related injuries and the like, all of which are uncertain factors. Therefore, as an experienced person, I would advise you to pay insurance. I hope my answer is useful to you.
