The Republic of Moldova is one of the major source countries of migrant workers in Europe. It is estimated that over 1 million Moldovans are migrant workers working all over Europe and beyond. In these circumstances, ensuring the equality of treatment in social security for migrant workers is of critical importance. To protect the rights of Moldovan migrants, the authorities of the Republic of Moldova have taken steps to conclude bilateral agreements on social security with the main destination states of Moldovan citizens working abroad.

In 2011, during a period when unemployment increased by over 300%, delivery of employment and welfare services was fragmented across three organizations.

Unemployed customers dealt separately with each organization. As a result customer service processes were inefficient and employment outcomes for clients were poor. Intreo was the response to this challenge, involving:

Worldwide, evidence shows that acute common health problems can progress to a state of chronic disability, job loss and dependence on costly long-term illness benefits. In Ireland, this has contributed to a significant increase since 2000 in the number of illness benefit recipients.

The automated information system "E-Reporting" was elaborated and implemented in order to provide an effective instrument for operationalize reporting to the state social insurance budget, under the conditions of maximum efficiency and effectiveness. This system is used by economic agents (e.g.

This submission outlines the delivery of a Claim, Payment and Entitlement Web Service to Student Universal Support Ireland (SUSI) from the Department of Social Protection (DSP).

The good practice is mainly about promoting the registered employment of women by facilitating the integration into the labour market of women with small children who are at risk of withdrawal from the labour market and by supporting the formal work of women who provide home-based child-care services.

The medical devices list included in the Health Application Notification (SUT) are the basis for reimbursing medical devices. In the medical devices list, all the medical devices to be reimbursed are presented. On the other hand, since health service providers define their own medical devices, there is no application standard.  

According to Law No. 5510 (Social insurance and Universal Health Insurance Law) some short- and long-term ınsurance benefits and similar payments, called 'Personal payments’ are paid through the beneficiaries' ID number on the 8th-14th days of a month. If someone who has payments sent to the bank misses these pre-determined days, the benefits are sent back to the SSI’s accounts. This process is repeated every month until the individual receives the payment.

Temporary Incapacity Allowance Programme (e-Payment) is a software which the Turkish Social Security Institution put into operation in July 2012 especially for insured persons who have a service contract with one or more employers. In August 2015, it was upgraded to also include the self-employed.

This programme:

In 2012, the Swedish government allotted resources for early intervention for a restricted amount of new job-seekers. The requirement was that the Public Employment Service (PES) used a profiling instrument which could objectively select individuals with a high risk of long-term unemployment. Not everyone could come into question and resources should be targeted to those with the highest risk, independent of geographical location. The independence of geographical location entails an important difficulty in allocation of interventions at the local level.

The integration of student certificates to the Health Benefits Rights Programme (SPAS) involves the electronic flow of data between the Turkish Social Security Institution (SSI) and both the Higher Education Institution (YÖK) and the National Education Ministry (MEB) on up-to-date student certificates.

The groundwork to develop the software started at the beginning of 2013, and finished at the end of 2013, but the entire project was completed in February 2014 and the flow of data on student certificates began electronically.

Provision 18 of the Social Insurance and Universal Health Insurance Law (Code Number 5510) states that temporary incapacity allowances may be paid by employers by deducting the amount from their premium (contribution) payments.

The programme implements the deduction between the Turkish Social Security Institution and employers who signed a specific protocol with the SSI on the acceptance of the automatic deduction via e-payment (for the Temporary Incapacity Allowances) programme.

The general public in Sweden has little interest in the social security system and many times incorrect expectations of how much they will receive in benefits. But at the same time most people are positive about having a general social welfare system. The Swedish Social Insurance Agency’s communication strategy was created to remind the general public of just that and to connect the Agency with those positive feelings by showing how the agency embodies that idea of social security in a modern way.

The premium pension system has one of the world's most powerful discount models, giving pension savers the opportunity to save in UCITS-funds with substantially lower fund fees. This gives our pension savers an average 15-20% higher premium pension.

In 2015, the fund companies took out approximately 6.2 billion SEK in fees from our funds' shares. 4.2 billion SEK (67%) was paid back to the Swedish Pensions Agency and will be distributed back to the pension savers.

To enable the freedom of movement on the unified labour market of the EU, the Croatian Pension Insurance Institution (CPII) allows users to request and receive through the website (www.mirovinsko.hr) an electronic record (ERPS) of the data recorded in the CPII electronic database (information on the insuree's employment status).

Spinal injuries (paraplegic/tetraplegic patients) and/or traumatic brain injuries (cranial/brain trauma) confront not only the injured individual but also the family members, the service providers involved and the SUVA with great challenges.

The Croatian Pension Insurance Institute (CPII) receives the death data for Croatian pension beneficiaries residing abroad on the principle of delivered Life Certificates and letters received from the competent foreign pension institutions. That way, CPII receives the beneficiaries' death data after a certain delay thereby causing possible undue payments of pension amounts.
