Can employees sign labor contracts without buying social security?

Legal analysis: labor contracts can be exempted from social security. Labor contracts are generally temporary and similar in nature, so they are labor contracts. The labor contract signed by both parties does not belong to labor relations, and the employer may not pay social security for employees. However, in the labor contract relationship, the employer must pay social security, otherwise it will be held accountable. According to the relevant laws and regulations, the employer shall declare and pay social insurance premiums in full and on time, and shall not postpone or reduce the payment except for legal reasons such as force majeure. The social insurance premiums that employees should pay shall be withheld and remitted by the employer, and the employer shall inform me of the details of paying social insurance premiums on a monthly basis. Social insurance refers to a non-profit social security system with the function of income redistribution. It is a system that forces most members of society to participate in order to prevent and share social risks such as old age, unemployment, illness and death and realize social security. It is a social and economic system that provides income or compensation for people who are unable to work, temporarily unemployed or suffer losses due to health reasons. The social insurance plan is organized by the government, forcing a certain group to use part of its income as social insurance tax (fee) to form a social insurance fund. Under certain conditions, the insured can get fixed income or loss compensation from the fund. It is a redistribution system, and its goal is to ensure the reproduction of material and labor and social stability. The main items of social insurance include endowment insurance, medical insurance, unemployment insurance, industrial injury insurance and maternity insurance.

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.
