Employer Information

We request employers registered with NSSF to complement our efforts by ensuring to:

  1. Submit your returns data electronically – No returns on portable media (Flash disks, CD’s) will be accepted.
  2. Pay contributions for each month before the 15th day of the ensuing month. Please remember that payment made after the 15th day of the ensuing month attracts interest.
  3. Ensure that all your employees are registered and contributions paid on their behalf. There should be no discrimination, on account of referring to some employees as casual or permanent.
  4. Do not use contributions deducted on behalf of employees as a new investment in your business.
