The Ministry of Human Resources and Social Security and the Ministry of Finance recently jointly issued the "Interim Measures for the Sickness and Disability Allowance of the Basic Pension Insurance for Enterprise Employees" (hereinafter referred to as the "Interim Measures"), clarifying that from January 1, 2025, before the basic pension insurance of enterprise employees reaches the statutory retirement age, if they are completely incapacitated due to illness or non-work-related disability after being identified, they can apply for receiving the disability allowance on a monthly basis, and the required funds will be paid by the basic pension insurance fund.

According to the Interim Measures, the monthly standard and payment period of the disability allowance shall be determined according to the age and cumulative payment period of the insured person when applying for the disability allowance. The monthly standard of sickness and disability allowance will be adjusted simultaneously when the state uniformly adjusts the basic pension level.

The "Interim Measures" stipulate that the insured persons shall receive sickness and disability allowances in accordance with the relevant provisions of the transfer and continuation of the national basic pension insurance relationship. During the period of receiving sickness and disability allowance, the basic pension insurance premium is no longer paid. Those who continue to be employed and make contributions in accordance with the provisions of the state shall have their sickness and disability allowance suspended from the month following the resumption of contributions.

The Interim Measures require that a person applying for sickness and disability allowance shall hold a total loss of working capacity appraisal conclusion made by a labor ability appraisal agency at or above the prefecture level (districted city) in the place where the benefits are received or the last place where the insurance is last enrolled. Provincial-level human resources and social security departments shall establish a system for the review and appraisal of the working capacity of persons receiving sickness and disability allowances, and if the persons who do not meet the requirements for complete loss of working capacity after the review and appraisal are not satisfied, the sickness and disability allowance shall be suspended from the month following the conclusion of the review and appraisal. If the sickness and disability allowance is obtained by fraud, falsification of supporting materials or other means, the administrative department of human resources and social security shall order it to be returned, and the relevant personnel shall be held accountable in accordance with the relevant laws and regulations.
