(Dan Tri) - Over the past year, the number of people withdrawing social insurance has decreased significantly. This is a positive sign when the Social Insurance Law 2024 was passed, with more policies to encourage workers to stay in the system.
Mr. Pham Truong Giang, Director of the Department of Social Insurance (Ministry of Labor - Invalids and Social Affairs) recalled that in previous years, the situation of withdrawing social insurance at one time increased. There were people waiting in line to withdraw from 4am in Ho Chi Minh City, Dong Nai, Binh Duong...
However, in 2024, the number of people seeking one-time social insurance benefits will decrease. Statistics from the Ministry of Labor, War Invalids and Social Affairs in the past 6 months show that the number of people receiving one-time social insurance benefits decreased by 17,000 people compared to December 2023.
"This is a very encouraging sign. Although the revised Law on Social Insurance will officially take effect on July 1, since it was passed by the National Assembly, workers have been aware of new policies that encourage workers to stay in the system," said Mr. Giang.
Therefore, workers decide to stay in the system to have the opportunity to receive pensions, instead of receiving social insurance in one lump sum. This shows that the Social Insurance Law 2024 has created peace of mind and attachment to the social security system for workers.
Regarding the new points of the Social Insurance Law 2024, Mr. Giang said that the Law consists of 11 chapters and 141 articles, taking effect from July 1, with many major changes and additional benefits for participants.
The highlight of the Law is to increase the protection of the legitimate rights of employees, by adding regulations that social insurance agencies are responsible for urging and guiding the preparation of registration dossiers for compulsory insurance participation; adding measures to handle acts of late payment and evasion of social insurance payment to enhance compliance with the law on social insurance...
Regarding one-time social insurance, Mr. Giang said that the Social Insurance Law 2024 supplements regulations in the direction of increasing benefits, encouraging workers to stay in the system.
Accordingly, employees who terminate their labor contracts in one of six cases will receive a one-time social insurance payment.
Those who are participating in the system and quit their jobs can still withdraw their social insurance at one time if they wish. In addition, those who participate in social insurance from July 1 onwards can still receive a one-time social insurance payment upon request in 5 cases.
Including people who are old enough to receive pension but have not paid social insurance for 15 years; people who have settled abroad; people who are suffering from one of the following diseases: cancer, paralysis, decompensated cirrhosis, severe tuberculosis, AIDS; people with a working capacity reduction of 81% or more and people with extremely severe disabilities; people in the armed forces who are demobilized, discharged, or quit their jobs are not subject to compulsory social insurance but also do not participate in voluntary social insurance and are not eligible for pension.
