Good practice in contribution collection system: The case of the Public Servants Social Security Agency of Ethiopia

According to the Public Servants’ Pension proclamation No. 345/2003, the pension contribution was to be collected from every employer on a monthly basis and transferred to the pension fund account within a month time after the payment of monthly salaries. Even though this is clearly stipulated in the pension proclamation, it is very difficult to collect the contribution efficiently (both in terms of time and the right amount). One of the major challenges the agency faced in collecting the pension contribution was related to the system.
