Why should the company pay social security according to the minimum standard?

Legal analysis: there may be several reasons: first, the minimum living allowance is cheap; Second, employees have more surplus wages; Third, the employee's salary itself is not high. The minimum social security standard is very cheap. Simply put, enterprises can meet national standards and pay social security for employees without paying too much money. On the surface, paying less social security will also make employees feel that their wages are higher. The annual output value of small and medium-sized enterprises in China is not much, the wages provided to employees are limited, and the social security payment is less.
