What should I do if the payment base of social security units is low?

Employers need to pay social insurance for workers, but some employers may not pay social insurance according to the statutory payment standard in order to save money, and some workers may think that the payment base of employers is too low. Then, in this case, what should I do if the unit payment base is low? Below, I will give you a detailed introduction to the specific content.

If the wages of employees are lower than 60% of the average social wage, the payment base shall be 60% of the average social wage.
