National Social Security Fund (NSSF), has made it easier for its members to access its services online and via USSD.

Registration for NSSF is mandatory for those in formal employment. Those in the informal sector can register for NSSF voluntarily. Employees contributions range from Ksh. 360 to a maximum of Ksh. 1080 per month and employers also contribute an equal amount. Voluntary contributors pay Ksh. 200 monthly.

Payments should be made on or before the 15th of every month. Payments made after the 15th day of the ensuing month will attract interest. Employers are advised to ensure that all employees are registered and contributions paid on their behalf.
