Benefits of paying social insurance in a short period of time
Workers ask about the benefits they receive when participating in social insurance for a short time, and are old.
Within the framework of the Online Dialogue and Exchange program, policy communication, and dissemination of new points on labor law, social insurance and trade union activities in 2025, held on November 28, workers asked: With me is a protection company, there are 60-year-old workers who have just applied to work and do not want to pay social insurance. Workers wonder what benefits will they enjoy when paying social insurance in such a short period of time?
Ms. Duong Thi Minh Chau - Head of the Propaganda and Support Department of Participants, Hanoi Social Insurance said that at the age of 60, when the enterprise signs a contract, it still has to pay social insurance. For short-term employees, if they have paid social insurance for 10 years, they can pay once to receive a pension. Currently, social insurance has a new policy of receiving social pensions, but it is because we pay it ourselves.
If the employee finds it necessary, they will pay 1 installment to transfer to receive social benefits. If the government changes the social pension benefits, they will also receive them and will have 1 health insurance card. At the age of 62, they can still pay social insurance at one time, but they should not leave the social security net. Thus, according to the law, workers have many rights and choices.
If they do not receive social pension but receive 1 social insurance, they will not receive many benefits. The easiest way to see it is 10 months of basic salary if they unfortunately lose it. Social Insurance encourages reserving payment time because you will get more benefits.
