Social insurance refers to a social and economic system that provides income or compensation for people who lose their ability to work, are temporarily unemployed or suffer losses due to health reasons. The main items of social insurance include endowment insurance, medical insurance, unemployment insurance, industrial injury insurance and maternity insurance.

The social insurance plan is organized by the government, forcing a certain group to use part of its income as social insurance tax (fee) to form a social insurance fund. Under certain conditions, the insured can get fixed income or loss compensation from the fund, which is a redistribution system with the goal of ensuring material and labor reproduction and social stability.

The company paid social security, why not issue social security cards?

For the employees of the company, we usually don't have to worry too much about social security, because our social security contributions are paid by the company, and the company has also applied for social security cards for employees after participating in social security. However, in some areas, it takes a long time to process social security cards, for example, it may take about 3 months. If you haven't received your social security card after participating in social security, it may be that our social security card is still being processed. Please be patient for a while. After the social security card is completed, the company will accept it and issue it.

Of course, it is also possible that the unit did not apply for social security cards for employees. In this case, we can also communicate with the unit and apply for a social security card ourselves. You can go to the social security cooperative bank outlets to apply for social security cards, and you can usually get them on the same day. It is recommended to consult the relevant information required for handling the social security card in advance, and then go to the bank to handle it after you have prepared the relevant information.

Does it matter if there is no social security card?

If you don't have a social security card after paying social security, it will be more troublesome to use.

For example, if the insured is ill and hospitalized, it is impossible to directly settle the account without a social security card. Usually, the insured person needs to prepare hospitalization certificate, payment list and other related materials to go to the local social security center for reimbursement. Specific local regulations shall prevail.

In addition, since the second generation of social security cards, our social security cards have not only social security accounts, but also financial accounts. The financial account of social security card is a bank debit card account. The cardholder can use the social security card as a debit card after activating at the cooperative bank outlet. At present, pensions, unemployment benefits and other benefits in many areas are paid directly to the financial account of the social security card, so if there is no social security card and the financial account is not activated, then the social security card cannot be used to receive relevant benefits.
