The social security base was adjusted in April, and the new base is your average salary in the previous year.

The general social security base will be adjusted in April.

Social insurance base, referred to as social insurance base, refers to the social insurance payment base of employees in a social security year. It is determined according to the average monthly wage income of employees from June 1 day to February 1 day in the previous year. The social insurance payment base is an important basis for calculating the social insurance premiums and social insurance benefits paid by employers and their employees. There are upper and lower limits, depending on the actual situation in each region.

From February to May every year, the insured unit shall report the social insurance payment base of the next settlement year to the municipal social insurance fee collection management center or the district social insurance agency (hereinafter referred to as the social insurance agency) that handles the insurance registration.

The payment base declared by the insured unit shall be signed or confirmed by the insured employee himself.

If the payer fails to declare according to the regulations, the social insurance agency may temporarily determine the monthly payment base at 1 10%.

The payment base is an important calculation basis for the insured to enjoy social insurance benefits. After workers participate in social insurance, social security agencies will establish personal accounts for basic old-age insurance and medical insurance for life. The higher the base of employees' contributions, the more personal accounts, the more disposable medical expenses and the higher the pension they receive when they retire. However, the concealed, omitted and underreported payment base of insured units and insured personnel will directly reduce the level of social insurance benefits enjoyed by insured personnel.

The monthly payment base of social insurance is generally determined according to the average monthly salary of employees in the previous year, which is determined once a year. Once determined, it may not be changed within one year.

The upper limit of the payment base refers to the fact that the wage income of employees exceeds 300% of the arithmetic average monthly wage of employees in provinces and cities in the previous year, which is not included in the payment base;

The lower limit of the payment base refers to the fact that the wage income of employees is lower than 60% of the arithmetic average of the monthly average wage of employees in provinces and cities in the previous year, and 60% of the arithmetic average of the monthly average wage of employees in provinces and cities in the previous year is the payment base.

There are upper and lower limits on the social insurance payment base, and the minimum can not be lower than 60% of the average monthly salary of employees in the whole city last year (employees in private enterprises, employees in individual industrial and commercial households and employees in non-local urban households shall not be lower than 50%, and shareholders and owners of private enterprises as legal persons and individual industrial and commercial households shall not be lower than100%); The maximum can not be higher than 300% of the average monthly salary of employees in the city last year. The average wage of employees in this Municipality is published annually by the Municipal Bureau of Statistics.

In the same payment year, the payment base is fixed for one year and will not be changed halfway. From April to June every year, the employer shall declare the social insurance payment base of its employees in the new year according to the notice of the local social insurance agency.
