In Vietnam, in recent years, the situation of employees stopping participating in social insurance and withdrawing one- time social insurance before retirement age tends to increase. The article uses the literature review method and the in-depth interview method to determine the factors related to receiving one-time social insurance for employees in Vietnam. The research results are used as a basis for building a research model, adjusting and supplementing the scale of factors affecting the intention to receive one- time social insurance of employees in Vietnam based on inheriting previous studies previously saved.
