On September 3, a netizen posted a video pointing out that their employees' monthly salary is 4,000 yuan, but the social security contribution base is far higher than the actual wage, resulting in an extra deduction of over 130 yuan per month from employees. The netizen believes this exacerbates cash flow pressure on low-income earners, with some job seekers even actively requesting to waive social security in exchange for cash. Netizens in the comment section discussed this, pointing out the excessive gap between the minimum wage and the contribution base, and calling for an increase in the minimum wage and protection of working hours.
