Do I have to change my job and social security myself?

When changing jobs, whether social security needs to be transferred by itself depends mainly on individual specific circumstances and local social security policies.

I. Understanding social security policies

Social security policies in different regions may be different, so it is recommended to know the local social security policies before job hopping. You can get accurate information by consulting the local social security bureau or consulting relevant policy documents. Understanding the social security policy helps to clarify the social security rights and responsibilities of individuals when changing jobs.

Second, the social security situation of the original unit

Before changing jobs, you need to confirm the social security payment with the original unit. If your old company has paid social security for you and you want to continue to enjoy social security benefits in your new work unit, then you need to transfer social security.

Third, the social security transfer process

Social security transfer generally includes the following steps:

1, apply to the original unit for social security transfer certificate. This usually requires the provision of personal identification and resignation certificates and other related materials.

2. Submit the social security transfer certificate to the personnel department of the new unit. The new unit will handle the social security transfer procedures for you in accordance with relevant policies and procedures.

3. After the new company starts to pay social security, the social security account of the original company will be automatically cancelled, and your social security records will continue to accumulate in the new company.

It should be noted that the specific social security transfer process may vary from region to region, so it is best to consult the local social security bureau or the personnel department of the new unit to ensure the accuracy and smoothness of the process.

Four. Handling of special circumstances

If an individual has special circumstances when changing jobs, such as cross-regional transfer and interruption of social security payment, etc. , may require special handling. In this case, it is recommended to consult the local social security bureau or a professional lawyer for more specific guidance and help.

To sum up: whether social security needs to be transferred by itself when changing jobs depends on the individual's specific situation and local social security policies. Before job-hopping, it is recommended to understand the relevant policies and processes, and keep in touch with the personnel departments of the original unit and the new unit to ensure the protection of social security rights and interests. At the same time, when dealing with special circumstances, we also need to seek the guidance and help of professionals.
