It is reported that relevant policies include:
--We will implement the policy of job stabilization and return of unemployment insurance. In order to effectively reduce the impact of the epidemic on the production and operation of enterprises, in 2020, Shanghai will continue to return 50% of the total amount of unemployment insurance premiums actually paid by the employer and its employees in the previous year to qualified employers who do not lay off staff, reduce staff and meet the conditions. After the implementation of the policy, it is expected that about 140000 employers will benefit and reduce the burden by about 2.6 billion yuan in 2020.
--Postpone the adjustment of social security payment base. Starting from this year, the start and end dates of Shanghai employees' social insurance payment year (including employees' medical insurance year) will be adjusted from July 1 of the current year to June 30 of the next year, delayed by 3 months (the employees' social insurance payment year in 2019 will be postponed to July 1, 2020). It is estimated that the social security payment burden of Shanghai enterprises will be reduced by 10.1 billion yuan in that year. Among them, the enterprise endowment insurance fund is about 6.4 billion yuan, and the medical insurance including maternity insurance fund is about 3.34 billion yuan.
--Extend the payment period of social insurance. Due to the impact of the epidemic, if the social insurance participating units, flexible employment personnel and urban and rural residents in Shanghai fail to handle the insurance registration, pay social insurance premiums and other businesses on time, they are allowed to make up after the end of the epidemic. If the insured unit fails to pay social insurance premiums within the time limit, it will not charge late fees after reporting to the Shanghai Social Security Agency, which will not affect the personal rights and interests records of insured employees. The relevant supplementary payment procedures can be completed within 3 months after the elimination of the epidemic situation.

For various enterprises in Shanghai affected by the epidemic, those who organize employees (including labor dispatch personnel working in the enterprise) to participate in various online vocational training during the shutdown period shall be included in the scope of enterprise employee training subsidized by local education additional special funds in each district, and enjoy 95% of the subsidy according to the actual training expenses.
