national insurance
Government-backed protection plan
National insurance is a system of mandatory contributions by employees and employers in the United Kingdom, funding state benefits including pensions, unemployment support, and healthcare.
The contributions are deducted from wages like a tax: How much national insurance do you pay?
The term sometimes refers to the contributions themselves rather than the system.
