View Post in Vietnamese: >> Người lao động chết, trợ cấp mai táng thuộc về người lo mai táng?

My uncle worked in the enterprise for 14 years and participated in social insurance for 10 years. He has now passed away. Am I entitled to the funeral allowance? My uncle has no relatives, and I am the person taking care of the funeral arrangements.

Based on Clause 1, Article 80 of the Law on Social Insurance 2014, the regulation on funeral allowance is as follows:

- The following individuals, when they pass away, will entitle the person responsible for arranging the funeral to receive a funeral allowance:

+ Workers who have paid social insurance for at least 60 months;

+ Individuals who are receiving pensions.

Therefore, in your case, when the worker dies, meaning your uncle who has paid social insurance for 10 years, you, as the person responsible for arranging the funeral, will be entitled to receive this funeral allowance.

Sincerely!
