The OASDI Program
With every paycheck, we contribute to Social Security. To be used in case of a disability or when we retire, the Social Security’s Old-Age, Survivors, and Disability Insurance (OASDI) program takes a percentage of our earnings every pay period. The OASDI program taxes our incomes at a rate of 6.2%. Employers meet this percentage, paying 6.2% of our paycheck to prepare us for the future. For those who work for themselves, the OASDI tax rate is 12.4% to meet the needs of the individual and supplement what would have been an employer’s contribution.
