Somalia Social Security and Payroll Deduction Rates in 2024

In Somalia, the establishment of a formal social security system is part of the country's long-term development goals. Given the current rebuilding phase, the focus is on laying down the foundation for such a system that would include contributions from both employees and employers to fund various benefits. These efforts are geared towards providing social protection for the workforce and their families, fostering social cohesion, and contributing to economic stability.

Proposed Social Security Contributions

Social security contributions in Somalia are envisioned to fund a range of benefits, including retirement pensions, health care, unemployment benefits, and support in case of work-related injuries or disabilities. Both employers and employees are expected to contribute to this system, with rates and structures designed to ensure sustainability and adequate coverage for beneficiaries.

Retirement Pensions

Retirement pension contributions aim to provide a stable income for individuals upon retirement, ensuring they can maintain a decent standard of living. This is particularly important in supporting the elderly population, who may no longer be able to rely on income from work.

Health Care Benefits

Contributions towards health care are intended to fund medical services for employees and their dependents. This includes preventive care, treatment of illnesses, and access to hospitals and clinics, contributing to the overall health and well-being of the workforce.

Unemployment Benefits

Unemployment benefits, funded through social security contributions, would provide temporary financial support to individuals who are actively seeking employment but are unable to find work. This safety net is crucial for maintaining living standards during periods of joblessness.

Work-Related Injury and Disability Benefits

Contributions also aim to cover benefits for employees who suffer from work-related injuries or disabilities, providing them with compensation and support for rehabilitation. This aspect of social security is essential for protecting workers and their families from the financial impacts of work-related accidents and illnesses.

As Somalia continues to rebuild, the development of a comprehensive social security system remains a priority. The implementation of such a system will require collaboration between the government, the private sector, and international partners. While challenges exist, the establishment of social security and payroll deductions is a critical step towards ensuring economic stability and social protection for all Somalis.
