Does the unit pay social security to temporary workers?

Temporary workers generally refer to workers who are employed informally in the workplace and directly take up their posts without probation standards. Whether the unit pays social security to temporary workers depends on the specific situation:

1. There is an employment relationship between the temporary workers and the company: that is, the temporary workers have signed a labor contract with the company and paid wages regularly on a monthly basis. At this time, the company needs to participate in social security for employees and bear part of the social security expenses.

2. No employment relationship: If the temporary workers have not signed a labor contract with the unit and have no actual employment relationship, and the wages are paid on a per-time basis, then the unit may not pay social security.

3. Labor dispatch: If the employee is a labor dispatch employee, the company needs to participate in social security for the employee and bear part of the social security expenses. As for which company is responsible, it depends on how the labor dispatch contract between the labor dispatch unit and the employer is signed.

4. Retirement and reemployment of employees: If retirees have not officially started to provide for the elderly, then the reemployment unit needs to participate in social security for employees. If retirees have already started to receive pensions, there is no need to consider paying social security for re-employed employees.

The steps for employers to pay social insurance for employees are as follows:

1, open an account. Enterprises need to open accounts for social security and provident fund at the Social Security Bureau and the Provident Fund Center within 30 days from the date of establishment. After opening a social security account, obtain a social security registration certificate, and after opening a provident fund account, obtain a unit provident fund registration number;

2. Increase personnel. The company will add new employees to the company's five insurance and one gold account every month;

3. Confirm the payment base. The unit needs to declare the correct payment base of five insurances and one gold for employees every month to ensure the normal payment of five insurances and one gold. The payment base of five insurances and one gold is based on the average salary of employees in the previous year or the salary in the first month of employment;

4. Pay the fee. Enterprises, banks, social security/provident fund management institutions sign bank payment agreements, and directly deduct five insurances and one gold fee from the enterprise bank account at a fixed time every month. Of course, enterprises can also choose cash or check to pay at the site of the five insurance and one gold management institution.

To sum up: there is no concept of temporary workers in law. As long as they are full-time, employers should buy social security for their employees. According to the law, the employer shall register social insurance for employees within 30 days from the date of employment.
