Can social security be paid by myself during job-hopping in Shanghai?

Yes, there are only two ways to pay social security after leaving the company. The first way is to pay through the unit, and the second way is to pay social security as a freelancer or flexible employee.

1. company payment: users can make social security loans in payment institutions, and generally they can pay five insurances when paying social security. Users only need to bear the expenses paid by individuals and companies themselves, and general payment institutions will charge a certain payment service fee, so the comprehensive monthly payment fee is still relatively high, and users can choose according to their actual situation.

2. Individual payment: individuals can only pay three insurances at most (unemployment, medical care and pension). Users can go directly to the local social security payment place with relevant certificates, then choose the grade they want to pay at the counter and pay according to the requirements of the staff.
