Welfare

Presentations | English

Welfare is the state of good health, happiness and comfort or financial assistance from the government. Social security may either be synonymous with welfare, or refer specifically to social insurance programs which provide support only to those who have previously contributed (e.g. most pension systems), as opposed to social assistance programs which provide support on the basis of need alone (e.g. most disability benefits). The International Labour Organization defines social security as covering support for those in old age, support for the maintenance of children, medical treatment, parental and sick leave, unemployment and disability benefits, and support for sufferers of occupational injury. A right to social security and an adequate standard of living is asserted in Articles 22 and 25 of the Universal Declaration of Human Right.
