Social Insurance system in Japan
We have four kinds of social insurance, namely health insurance, pension, nursing insurance, and unemployment insurance.
Two Type of the system
There are also two types of social insurance systems. One of them is the National Health Insurance and pension system at your municipal office. The system basically covers proprietors. The other is employee insurance.
Employee Insurance
The company is responsible to its employees in the appropriate employees’ health insurance and pension system. In addition, the company needs to bear the cost of unemployment insurance and nursing insurance. The company must bear almost half the amount and withhold the rest from the salaries of its employees including board members and pay them instead of employees.
