The Senate government corporation and public enterprises committee on Tuesday approved a bill authorizing President Duterte to defer or suspend the scheduled increase in Social Security System (SSS) contribution rate that starts this month.

This took place after the committee chaired by Senator Richard J. Gordon, committee chairman, conducted today a public hearing on bills seeking the deferment of the scheduled SSS contribution rate because of the current coronavirus disease pandemic.

The Office of the President is expected to assess the situation and initiate meetings with various concerned sectors such as employees and employers who can lobby and appeal for the suspension or deferment of the increase in the rate of contributions.
