KUALA LUMPUR: The Social Security Organization (Socso) has reminded employers to meet the conditions and be honest when submitting applications for the Salary Subsidy Program (PSU) and the Employment Retention Program (ERP).

Its chief executive, Datuk Sri, Dr. Mohammed Azman Aziz Mohammed, said in a statement yesterday that employers are urged not to include workers who were not registered with Socso before April 1, 2020 or names that do not exist.

“The list of employers requesting the PSU with workers who are not registered and who contributed to Socso before April 1, 2020, even if they were working before that date, will be submitted to the organization’s compliance division to take more measures, “the statement issued yesterday said in reference to the weekly status of requests.

Mohammed Azman said Thursday that Socso has received 278,505 PSU applications from employers representing 2.24 million workers since it opened its applications on April 1 this year.

Regarding the ERP, he said that Socso received 33,264 applications from employers representing 296,718 workers.

As announced by the Minister of Human Resources, employers can still request the additional ERP allocation of RM120 million.
