Should I bear the social security during my leave?

Legal analysis: Social insurance is paid by both units and individuals during personal leave. Paying social insurance premiums is a compulsory obligation of employers. The employee left his job and took a long vacation, and the labor relationship was not terminated. As long as labor relations exist, employers should continue to pay social insurance for workers. When a worker asks for personal leave, the employer may not pay wages, but there is no relevant provision exempting the employer from paying social insurance premiums. Therefore, during this period, the employer should still pay social insurance premiums.

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.
