The Old-Age, Survivors, and Disability Insurance (OASDI) program is a program of the Social Security Administration funded primarily through payroll taxes. It was signed into law in 1935 by then-President Franklin D. Roosevelt.
The OASDI program aims to supplement a worker’s lost wages due to retirement, disability or death of a spouse.
