Social security is a new concept relating to the economic
insecurity. Social security system responds to new demographic
challenges, such as ageing and changing family structures, with
important implications for the financing of social protection. Social
security for employees is a concept which over time has gained
importance in the industrialized countries. Broadly, it can be defined
as measures providing protection to working class against
contingencies like retirement, resignation, retrenchment, maternity,
old age, unemployment, death, disablement and other similar
conditions. Social security is one of the pillars on which the structure
of a welfare State rests, and it constitutes the hard core of social
policy in most countries. It is through social security measures that
the State attempts to maintain every citizen at a certain prescribed
level below which no one is allowed to fall. It is the security that
society furnishes through appropriate organization, against certain
risks to which its members are exposed.1
Social security system comprises health and unemployment
insurance, family allowances, provident funds, pensions and gratuity
schemes, and widow‘s and survivor‘s allowances. The social insurance
schemes include their compulsory and contributory nature; the
members must first subscribe to a fund from which benefits could be
drawn later. On the other hand, social assistance is a method
according to which benefits are given to the needy persons, fulfilling
the prescribed conditions, by the government out of its own
resources.2
