[摘要]农民工养老保险制度是完善我国社会保障体系的重要内容。由于现行社会养老保险制度设计与农民工特点相悖,出现了随意“退保”现象。可采取以下措施建立以商业保险为平台的新型农民工养老保险制度:全国统一政策、委托运作管理、基金统筹运用。商业保险参与运作有利于维护农民工养老保障权益、有利于满足农民工参保需求、有利于提高统筹层次、有利于保证基金运转安全、有利于降低运行成本、有利于控制运行风险、有利于开展“三农”保险。 [关键词]农民工;养老保险;委托管理 [中图分类号] F840.67 [文献标识码] A [文章编号]1004-3306(2006)07-0038-02 Abstract: The pension insurance program for rural workers is an important content of the social security system. However, the current social pension program runs contrary to rural workers’ actual situations in many aspects such as the contradiction between difficult policy transfer and rural worker’s high mobility, the contradiction between longtail contribution to relatively short years in employment of rural workers, and the contradiction between high contribution and weak affordability. The author proposes to build up a new rural worker pension scheme on the platform of commercial insurance. Principles to be followed to achieve this goal are: uniform national policy, thirdparty management, and centralized fund utilization. Involvement of commercial insurers will help to safeguard old age provision of rural workers, meet access needs of them, create a higherlevel and coordinated management of the pension business, guarantee safety of the pension funds, lower operation costs, control operation risks, and help to operate “insurance for rural areas, farmers and agriculture”.
