BEAUFORT: Lumadan Assemblyman Datuk Ruslan Muharam is targeting to register 100 self-employed people with the Social Security Organisation .
“I am targeting 100 people this year to ensure they benefit from protection under the SKSPS whose contributions are fully funded by the government and myself. “Thus, many people are still not aware of this scheme and its benefits, especially if there is an accident while working,” he said at the Lumadan Assemblyman’s Visit Program here.Ruslan said he would work with Socso by holding a joint programme to give awareness to the community about the benefits of SKSPS.
Through the 2024 Budget, the government allocated RM100 million for the SKSPS Contribution Matching Grants which benefit 500,000 self-employed individuals, with the contribution incentive, as much as 90 per cent, borne by the government.
