Can I not buy social security in the company?

Legal analysis: No, even if the employee himself asks not to pay social insurance, the company will not do so, because the law forces employees to buy social insurance, and it is illegal and invalid for the employee to ask the employer not to pay social insurance. It is legal for employers to pay social insurance for workers, and it must be compulsory. It is illegal for both parties to agree not to pay.

Legal basis: Article 58 of the Social Insurance Law of People's Republic of China (PRC) stipulates that the employer shall apply to the social insurance agency for social insurance registration for employees within 30 days from the date of employment. If the social insurance has not been registered, the social insurance agency shall verify the social insurance premium it should pay. Employees-free individual industrial and commercial households who voluntarily participate in social insurance, part-time employees who do not participate in social insurance in the employing unit and other flexible employees shall apply to the social insurance agency for social insurance registration. The state establishes a national unified personal social security number. Personal social security number is a citizen's identity number.
