To safeguard these groups from further distress, the government has instituted various schemes related to food, health, insurance, and more. Social protection measures encompass wage employment, subsidized or free food grains, old age pensions, and similar initiatives. The Food Security Act of 2013, along with the public distribution system in India, serves as a prominent example of social security.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div id=\"ez-toc-container\" class=\"ez-toc-v2_0_73 counter-hierarchy ez-toc-counter ez-toc-grey ez-toc-container-direction\">\n<label for=\"ez-toc-cssicon-toggle-item-69e20670d03ab\" class=\"ez-toc-cssicon-toggle-label\"><p class=\"ez-toc-title\" style=\"cursor:inherit\">Table of Contents<\/p>\n<span class=\"ez-toc-cssicon\"><span class=\"eztoc-hide\" style=\"display:none;\">Toggle<\/span><span class=\"ez-toc-icon-toggle-span\"><svg style=\"fill: #999;color:#999\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" class=\"list-377408\" width=\"20px\" height=\"20px\" viewBox=\"0 0 24 24\" fill=\"none\"><path d=\"M6 6H4v2h2V6zm14 0H8v2h12V6zM4 11h2v2H4v-2zm16 0H8v2h12v-2zM4 16h2v2H4v-2zm16 0H8v2h12v-2z\" fill=\"currentColor\"><\/path><\/svg><svg style=\"fill: #999;color:#999\" class=\"arrow-unsorted-368013\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" width=\"10px\" height=\"10px\" viewBox=\"0 0 24 24\" version=\"1.2\" baseProfile=\"tiny\"><path d=\"M18.2 9.3l-6.2-6.3-6.2 6.3c-.2.2-.3.4-.3.7s.1.5.3.7c.2.2.4.3.7.3h11c.3 0 .5-.1.7-.3.2-.2.3-.5.3-.7s-.1-.5-.3-.7zM5.8 14.7l6.2 6.3 6.2-6.3c.2-.2.3-.5.3-.7s-.1-.5-.3-.7c-.2-.2-.4-.3-.7-.3h-11c-.3 0-.5.1-.7.3-.2.2-.3.5-.3.7s.1.5.3.7z\"\/><\/svg><\/span><\/span><\/label><input type=\"checkbox\"  id=\"ez-toc-cssicon-toggle-item-69e20670d03ab\"  \/><nav><ul class='ez-toc-list ez-toc-list-level-1 ' ><ul class='ez-toc-list-level-3' ><li class='ez-toc-heading-level-3'><a class=\"ez-toc-link ez-toc-heading-1\" href=\"https:\/\/edukemy.com\/blog\/social-security-upsc-economy-notes\/#Government_Initiatives\" title=\"Government Initiatives:&nbsp;\">Government Initiatives:&nbsp;<\/a><\/li><li class='ez-toc-page-1 ez-toc-heading-level-3'><a class=\"ez-toc-link ez-toc-heading-2\" href=\"https:\/\/edukemy.com\/blog\/social-security-upsc-economy-notes\/#Social_Insurance\" title=\"Social Insurance:&nbsp;\">Social Insurance:&nbsp;<\/a><\/li><li class='ez-toc-page-1 ez-toc-heading-level-3'><a class=\"ez-toc-link ez-toc-heading-3\" href=\"https:\/\/edukemy.com\/blog\/social-security-upsc-economy-notes\/#Key_Aspects_of_Social_Security\" title=\"Key Aspects of Social Security:&nbsp;\">Key Aspects of Social Security:&nbsp;<\/a><\/li><\/ul><\/li><li class='ez-toc-page-1 ez-toc-heading-level-2'><a class=\"ez-toc-link ez-toc-heading-4\" href=\"https:\/\/edukemy.com\/blog\/social-security-upsc-economy-notes\/#Pradhan_Mantri_Shram_Yogi_Maan-Dhan_PM-SYM\" title=\"Pradhan Mantri Shram Yogi Maan-Dhan (PM-SYM):&nbsp;\">Pradhan Mantri Shram Yogi Maan-Dhan (PM-SYM):&nbsp;<\/a><ul class='ez-toc-list-level-3' ><li class='ez-toc-heading-level-3'><a class=\"ez-toc-link ez-toc-heading-5\" href=\"https:\/\/edukemy.com\/blog\/social-security-upsc-economy-notes\/#Scheme_Details\" title=\"Scheme Details:&nbsp;\">Scheme Details:&nbsp;<\/a><\/li><li class='ez-toc-page-1 ez-toc-heading-level-3'><a class=\"ez-toc-link ez-toc-heading-6\" href=\"https:\/\/edukemy.com\/blog\/social-security-upsc-economy-notes\/#Eligibility_Criteria\" title=\"Eligibility Criteria:\u00a0\">Eligibility Criteria:\u00a0<\/a><\/li><li class='ez-toc-page-1 ez-toc-heading-level-3'><a class=\"ez-toc-link ez-toc-heading-7\" href=\"https:\/\/edukemy.com\/blog\/social-security-upsc-economy-notes\/#Conclusion\" title=\"Conclusion:&nbsp;\">Conclusion:&nbsp;<\/a><\/li><\/ul><\/li><li class='ez-toc-page-1 ez-toc-heading-level-2'><a class=\"ez-toc-link ez-toc-heading-8\" href=\"https:\/\/edukemy.com\/blog\/social-security-upsc-economy-notes\/#FAQs\" title=\"FAQs\">FAQs<\/a><ul class='ez-toc-list-level-3' ><li class='ez-toc-heading-level-3'><a class=\"ez-toc-link ez-toc-heading-9\" href=\"https:\/\/edukemy.com\/blog\/social-security-upsc-economy-notes\/#1_What_is_Social_Security\" title=\"1.

What is Social Security?<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>Social Security is a federal program designed to provide financial support to retired workers, disabled individuals, and survivors of deceased workers. It is funded through payroll taxes and provides benefits to eligible individuals and their families.<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"2_Who_is_eligible_for_Social_Security_benefits\"><\/span><strong>2. Who is eligible for Social Security benefits?<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>Eligibility for Social Security benefits is primarily based on a worker&#8217;s contributions to the Social Security system through payroll taxes. Generally, individuals who have worked and paid into the system for a certain number of years are eligible for retirement benefits. Disability benefits are available to individuals who have a qualifying medical condition that prevents them from working, while survivors&#8217; benefits are provided to spouses and dependents of deceased workers.<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"3_How_are_Social_Security_benefits_calculated\"><\/span><strong>3. How are Social Security benefits calculated?<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>Social Security benefits are calculated based on a worker&#8217;s lifetime earnings. The Social Security Administration uses a formula that takes into account a worker&#8217;s highest 35 years of earnings, adjusted for inflation. The age at which a person chooses to start receiving benefits also affects the amount they receive, with full retirement age typically between 66 and 67, depending on the year of birth.<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"4_Can_I_work_while_receiving_Social_Security_benefits\"><\/span><strong>4. Can I work while receiving Social Security benefits?<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>Yes, it is possible to work while receiving Social Security benefits, but your earnings may affect the amount of benefits you receive. If you are below full retirement age, there is an earnings limit beyond which your benefits may be reduced. However, once you reach full retirement age, you can work and earn any amount without it affecting your Social Security benefits.<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"5_Is_Social_Security_financially_stable_for_the_future\"><\/span><strong>5. Is Social Security financially stable for the future?<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>Social Security faces long-term financial challenges due to factors such as demographic shifts, including the aging population and declining birth rates. While the program is currently able to pay full benefits, projections indicate that the trust funds may be depleted in the coming decades if no changes are made. Policymakers are considering various reforms to ensure the long-term sustainability of Social Security, such as adjusting payroll taxes, raising the retirement age, or modifying benefit formulas.<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full is-resized\"><a href=\"https:\/\/edukemy.com\/upsc\/upsc-essay?utm_source=Blog&amp;utm_medium=Banner&amp;utm_campaign=Essay\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\"><img decoding=\"async\" data-src=\"https:\/\/edukemy.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/UPSC-Essay-Course-1280\u00d7300-1-3.svg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-42688 lazyload\" width=\"781\" height=\"182\" src=\"data:image\/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAAAAACH5BAEKAAEALAAAAAABAAEAAAICTAEAOw==\" style=\"--smush-placeholder-width: 781px; --smush-placeholder-aspect-ratio: 781\/182;\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"block-c6ab63ae-7083-4831-b519-cb89dacafb18\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"In_case_you_still_have_your_doubts_contact_us_on_9811333901\"><\/span><strong>In case you still have your doubts, contact us on 9811333901.<\/strong>&nbsp;<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p id=\"block-52c5a91b-6ed6-46e3-b781-7cc0c63a0b76\">For UPSC Prelims Resources,&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/edukemy.com\/upsc-cse-prelims-resource-centre\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Click here<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p id=\"block-d014fe86-d628-49d8-82ce-6c60dc6e7a73\">For Daily Updates and Study Material:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p id=\"block-38177954-e668-4d8d-b250-d0fbd5a09390\">Join our Telegram Channel &#8211;&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/t.me\/WithEdukemy4IAS\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Edukemy for IAS<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\" id=\"block-49ca2fe3-109f-4a88-b72e-9df49c3d328e\"><li>1.
