"Today I will help you, tomorrow he will help me", Beijing Municipal Elderly Assistance Service also has a "time bank".
Volunteers with "time bank" personal accounts participate in pension volunteer services, and the "time coins" obtained can be used for their own use or gift, and a certain number of "time coins" can also be exchanged for public pension institutions in the future.
Volunteer to serve fog
Save enough 10,000 yuan to stay in a pension institution
This year, the Work Report of the Beijing Municipal Government for the first time clearly put forward the development of the "time bank" mutual assistance pension model as a task of the municipal government. At the press conference on the interpretation of the "Time Bank" policy held on January 19, the relevant person in charge of the Civil Affairs Bureau said that the Implementation Plan of the Beijing Pension Service Time Bank (Trial) (hereinafter referred to as the "Implementation Plan") will be implemented from June 1.
According to the newly released "Implementation Plan", after training, permanent residents of Beijing who have reached the age of 18, are enthusiastic about public welfare undertakings, and are physically and mentally healthy, or who are under the age of 18 in Beijing who participate in volunteer services for the elderly under the leadership of their guardians, can become volunteers and establish corresponding personal accounts in the "time bank"; each hour of service can receive 1 time coin and deposit into the account.
Volunteers with "Time Bank" personal accounts participate in volunteer services for the elderly, which can not only help others but also benefit their families. The "Implementation Plan" mentions that the time coin obtained by volunteers participating in the volunteer service for the elderly can be exchanged for the same length of service for their own use after the age of 60, or it can be given to their parents, grandparents and other immediate family members, so that their relatives can enjoy the service.
Time coins can be deposited and exchanged throughout the city of Beijing.
After volunteers have obtained and stored 10,000 time coins through participating in the "time bank" pension volunteer service, they can stay in public pension institutions in the jurisdiction according to the treatment of urban and rural special hardship personnel after they are old and weak or incapacitated. 10,000 time coins means 10,000 hours of service.
Li Hongbing, deputy director of the Civil Affairs Bureau and spokesman, said that this is not the only incentive mechanism, and government departments will also explore the establishment of incentive measures with clear echelons, such as points exchange awards, excellent volunteer service project selection, excellent volunteer service organization selection, star volunteers and so on.
Special groups of the elderly
Get a certain amount of time coins for free
Judging from the content of the "Implementation Plan", the service objects of the "Time Bank" pension volunteer service are the elderly who have reached the age of 60. As the elderly on the demand side, after completing the identity authentication on the login information management platform, as long as there is a time coin in the account, after review, they can release the pension service demand. As a volunteer who provides services, after registering and certifying on the information management platform, you can choose to make an appointment nearby, carry out relevant services, and obtain time coins.
It is worth mentioning that some special elderly groups can also enjoy some "special preferential treatment".
Specifically, for the basic old-age service objects such as economic difficulties, severe disabilities, dementia, special families with family planning, severely disabled elderly people, and other special elderly people in need of social assistance, the "Implementation Plan" makes it clear that the civil affairs of each district will give priority to giving a certain amount of time coins free of charge to the above-mentioned special elderly groups in combination with the actual situation of each district, which will be used to release the needs of old-age services, exchange various services provided by volunteers, and effectively solve the outstanding old-age needs of special elderly groups.
At the same time, volunteers are encouraged to donate time coins to special elderly groups in need with the help of public welfare accounts to achieve "secondary public welfare".
"'Time Bank' pension volunteer service has the self-service self-benefit characteristics of providing services first and then enjoying services, through the storage and exchange of time, to support and guide the young elderly, other personnel to help the elderly and special elderly groups such as disability and dementia; after the volunteers themselves go to old age, they can obtain services of the same duration, and the essence is still the concept of exchange." Li Hongbing said.
Speaking of the implementation plan of the "time bank" that landed this time, Li Hongbing said that the "time bank" of the old-age service is an innovation in the public welfare mutual assistance pension model in Beijing, the purpose of which is to encourage and support the whole society to provide volunteer services for the elderly, and to promote the resources generated by this service to form a sustainable cycle among individuals, families and society.
Service good or bad
Seniors can be scored instantly
The reporter learned that the service content of the "time bank" of the old-age service mainly includes: emotional comfort, assistance services, travel accompaniment, cultural and sports activities, health science, legal aid, training lectures, guidance and prevention of financial and network risks and other eight categories of services. Each district will optimize the service content of the time bank according to the actual situation of the elderly in the district and the professional characteristics and distribution of volunteers, and launch service projects that meet the needs of personalized services and are grounded.
In order to ensure that the volunteer service for the elderly is true and effective, volunteers should check in and check out through the information management platform and record the length of service. Li Hongbing said that in the near future, the Civil Affairs Bureau will release the platform WeChat Mini Program or APP to facilitate the masses to complete various operations such as login, authentication, release information, and record time.
According to the introduction, operations such as login, authentication, posting information, and recording time can be done at hand through devices such as smartphones and tablets. If the elderly or volunteers do not or are inconvenient to use smartphones and other devices due to their own or other reasons, they can contact the professional institutions confirmed by the street (township) and operate them through offline means.
The ability of the elderly to make instant comments on volunteer services is a highlight of the "Time Bank" information management platform that will be launched. According to the "Implementation Plan", after the completion of the relevant customized services, the elderly can evaluate the satisfaction of the old-age volunteer service by logging on to the information management platform or contacting the professional institutions confirmed by the street (township), whether the service is good or not, the experience is not good, and the feedback can be given by moving their fingers and making a phone call.
The reporter also learned that the time bank launched this time will achieve data sharing and interconnection with "Volunteer Beijing", so that the old and the old and the old" pension volunteer service will be included in the city's unified and standardized volunteer service sequence.
It is reported that under the premise of information sharing between the time bank information management platform and "volunteer Beijing", time bank volunteers will participate in the old-age volunteer service released by the time bank information management platform after obtaining the insured qualification of "volunteer beijing", and the service items, locations, and periods are recorded, such as accidental injury accidents that occur in the service process, they will apply for claims in accordance with the claim process stipulated by "Volunteer Beijing".
Fraud
Pulled into the list of untrustworthy
The new policy has landed, and relevant regulatory measures have also been determined. It is understood that the "time bank" information management platform will adopt Internet +, big data, artificial intelligence and other means to accurately dock supply and demand information and adopt "intelligent" supervision of services.
For example, for the same volunteer to participate in multiple old-age volunteer services in the same time period, it will be restricted, and then it will be handled according to the return visit investigation; for example, for abnormal situations such as high-frequency two-way services, abnormal late-night services, and frequent gifts of time coins, early warning prompts will be carried out, and relevant subjects and accounts will be tracked. For fraudulent acts, once verified, certain measures will be taken, including canceling the qualifications for the identification and recording of old-age volunteer service information, and including them in the list of untrustworthiness of Beijing municipal old-age service institutions.
In addition, for the operator of the information management platform and its staff that undertakes the operation of the city's pension service time bank, it is required to keep the personal information collected and used in the process of providing the service strictly confidential, and must not leak, tamper with or destroy it, and must not sell it to others or illegally provide it.
"The 'time bank' public welfare mutual aid pension model featuring mutual assistance for the elderly has quietly risen in various parts of the mainland in recent years. In accordance with the idea of 'saving time today, changing services tomorrow', the "Implementation Plan" released by Beijing municipality this time may drive more volunteers to invest in public welfare mutual assistance for the elderly, which is conducive to forming a good social trend of mutual assistance. In the view of Yan Yuejin, research director of E-House Think Tank, the "time bank" public welfare mutual assistance pension model will also reduce the financial burden of the government to a certain extent, and reduce the pressure on the community and the children of the elderly in the community and at home.
