Research On The Problems And Countermeasures Of Social Pension Insurance Fraud Governance In Xuzhou District Of Yibin City

In his article “Promoting the high-quality and sustainable development of China’s social security” published on April 16,2022,General Secretary Xi Jinping pointed out that weaving a tight social security safety net is a prerequisite for a sustainable social security system.China’s pension insurance coverage exceeds 1billion people,making it the largest insured group in the country.However,as the number of participants expands and the level of benefits rises,the amount of pension insurance fund expenditures also increases.In recent years,there have been numerous cases of fraud driven by illegal interests,which severely hinder the development of the pension insurance development.Therefore,the governance of social pension insurance fraud is particularly important to curb the infringement of the fund and ensure its safety.Social pension insurance fraud governance refers to the prevention and investigation of social pension insurance fraud by social insurance administrative departments,social insurance agencies,and relevant administrative departments in accordance with the law,which plays a key role in measuring the pension insurance operation and fund supervision of a department of human resources and social security,a region and even a country.Xuzhou District of Yibin City has made achievements in social pension insurance fraud prevention,but there are also some problems.Firstly,starting from the status quo of fraud governance in Xuzhou District,the data on its practice of social pension insurance was collected by the methods of participatory observation,case analysis,and interviews.Then the relevant theories of information asymmetry,risk management,and government supervision were adopted to analyze these data.The analysis discovered five problems in fraud governance of social pension insurance in Xuzhou District,including insufficient risk prevention and control,poor information and data channels,inadequate team building,insufficient law enforcement,and insufficient social participation.Secondly,the analysis revealed that the specific causes of the problems mainly focused on the imperfect risk control system,insufficient information system construction,weak professional level of the team,inadequate supporting regulations,and lack of motivation for social participation.Finally,combing the research results with the characteristics and features of Xuzhou District,the thesis proposed the following five ways to further optimize the path of social pension insurance fraud governance: first,enhance the awareness of prevention and improve the risk control system;second,strengthen information sharing to maximize collaborative effectiveness;third,focus on team building to improve the performance;fourth,improve the institutional mechanism and intensify supervision;fifth,play the role of incentives to promote social supervision.Taking Xuzhou District of Yibin City as the research case,this thesis studied the social practice of social pension insurance fraud governance through the collection and analysis of grassroots data.It is hoped that its research findings could provide references for similar grassroots management departments in China on social pension insurance fraud governance.
