Does the company need to pay social security as a legal person?

Legal analysis: Yes, as the legal representative of the company, employees show in the social security system that enterprises should bear 20% of the social security paid by employees. Therefore, employees cannot pay individual social insurance. The legal representative of the company is also a member of the company's employees and has to pay social security.

Legal basis: Article 58 of the Social Insurance Law of People's Republic of China (PRC), the employer shall apply to the social insurance agency for social insurance registration for its 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.
