MANILA -Around 20 percent of the PHP55 billion arrears by employers and employees in the private sector are projected to be covered under the latest round of Social Security System (SSS) condonation program. "Total amount of delinquencies is about PHP55 billion and at least 20 percent of that PHP55 billion are penalties to be condoned," SSS senior vice president Mario Sibucao said in a virtual briefing on Thursday. He, however, pointed out that the final amount to be condoned would depend on whether the more than 700,000 employers are qualified under the condonation program. Employers who are qualified to apply for the condonation program are those whose businesses are affected by the pandemic and calamity. Employees whose livelihood are affected by the crisis are also qualified to apply for the program. The latest condonation program aims to help both the employers and employees who are affected by the pandemic, SSS president and chief executive officer Aurora Ignacio said.

+ March 05, 2021 THE Social Security System (SSS) adds more services to its online services portfolio as it steps up efforts to digitalize member and employer transactions.
SSS President and Chief Executive Officer Aurora C. Ignacio said the initiative aims to address the need to bring SSS services within reach of its members, pensioners, covered employers, and the public in view of social distancing and health requirements imposed by the government to stop the spread of the Covid-19.
“For the past years, we have been gradually shifting our stakeholders’ way of transacting with us from face-to-face to online. The pandemic motivated us further to fast track our digital transformation initiatives, not only to provide our stakeholders with faster, more convenient, and more efficient means of transacting with us but also to ensure their safety,” Ignacio said.
