Do temporary workers also need to buy social security?

Legal analysis: the first case: there is an actual employment relationship between the two parties. The so-called employment or employment relationship generally refers to all continuous service relationships, and the main income or a large part of the income of the incumbent or employee who provides services comes from the enterprise where he works. Temporary workers who have actual employment relationship with the enterprise have signed labor contracts, participated in the attendance of the unit and obeyed the management of the rules and regulations of the unit. Then temporary workers should enjoy the same treatment as regular employees. Enterprises need to pay compensation to temporary workers according to "wages and salaries", and at the same time, they need to help temporary workers withhold social security and individual taxes. The second case: temporary workers provide labor services, and there is no actual employment relationship. If there is no actual employment relationship between temporary workers and enterprises, and there is no labor contract with the unit with a time limit, and services are only provided occasionally or on a per-time basis, this situation should be treated as labor expenses. For example, in the renovation of houses temporarily hired to carry goods, such as corporate offices, painters and porters, enterprises generally do not set up these positions permanently, and employees do not provide continuous services. Enterprises that accept labor services do not need to provide social security for labor providers. The third situation: labor dispatch employees. Who should pay the social security of the dispatched employees? The key depends on how the labor dispatch unit and the employer sign the labor dispatch contract. If the contract stipulates that the employer directly pays the labor remuneration to the labor dispatch unit.

Legal basis: Article 72 of People's Republic of China (PRC) Labor Law determines the source of social insurance funds according to the types of insurance, and gradually implements social overall planning. Employers and workers must participate in social insurance and pay social insurance premiums according to law.

Article 60 of the Social Insurance Law of People's Republic of China (PRC), the employing unit shall declare on its own and pay social insurance premiums in full and on time. Except for legal reasons such as force majeure, the payment shall not be postponed or reduced. 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.

Individual industrial and commercial households without employees, part-time employees who have not participated in social insurance in the employing units and other flexible employees can pay social insurance premiums directly to the social insurance premium collection agencies.
