Can you still collect unemployment benefits if you pay flexible employment social security?

You can't collect unemployment benefits by paying flexible employment social security.

Flexible employment can only pay basic pension insurance and basic medical insurance, can not pay unemployment insurance. So they cannot collect unemployment benefits.

According to the law, the conditions for receiving unemployment benefits are as follows:

1. The employer and the person himself have paid unemployment insurance premiums for one year before becoming unemployed.

2. If the employment is interrupted not because of one's own will.

Specifically, it includes the following cases:

(1) The termination of labor contract.

(2) The employer proposes and terminates the labor contract by consensus with the worker.

(3) The termination of the employment contract is initiated by the employer or the worker is dismissed, removed or expelled by the employer.

(4) The termination of the labor contract by the employer.

(5) The termination of the labor contract by the worker himself/herself in accordance with the provisions of Article 38 of the Labor Contract Law.

(6) Other cases stipulated by laws, regulations and rules.

3. Those who have registered as unemployed and have a request to seek employment.

The standard of unemployment insurance benefits shall be determined by the people's governments of provinces, autonomous regions and municipalities directly under the central government, and shall not be lower than the standard of minimum subsistence guarantee for urban residents.

Application materials:

(2) copy of my ID card;

(3) the original of my Employment and Unemployment Certificate;
