There is also a question about Who is the Social Security Committee (SSO)? In which “Bangkok Online Business” See (May 9) on the Social Security Office website. www.sso.go.th has the following names

It is interesting that after the meeting there was a comment from “Committee” of the private part of industrial work Looking at the meeting to confirm the board’s resolution on March 24 in consideration of unemployment benefits. The Covid-19 story. To provide a 60-day replacement benefit period of 50% for the affected insured person.But in this matter He returned a cabinet resolution Pay up to 62%, making it a disagreement AND not to mention the 75% increase, since will affect the unemployment insurance fund
Additionally, the resolution proposed a reduction of just 1% of employer contributions, with 4% of contributions paid, and this was done differently than the board’s resolution.
“Committee” for another employee Explain that the meeting had a unanimous resolution not to take Including raising the limit for insured persons affected by 62% of wages and 75% because unemployment fund funds of more than 100 billion baht are owned by Si used until money runs out Next-generation unemployed insurer What to do Will the government pay for it? Quoting at a meeting of government representatives such as the Ministry of Finance, the Budget Office agrees.
“If the Minister still persists using power, he believed that the leaders of the workforce would not give up and would have to move. As for the effort to pressure insurers to receive 75% assistance from government measures. In fact, do that the employee receives less help than he should because the maximum limit of the salary paid to Social Security is only 15,000 baht, regardless of whether that employee has a salary of ten thousand or a few hundred thousand baht. But if they are used labor protection measures under article 75 specifying that employers pay 75% of wages during the period of temporary closure. It is calculated from the actual wage rate “
But The question is “unemployed insurer”. Due to force majeure in the case of Covid-19 That is known to be in trouble AND refunds are considered deductions from income. But the time to request a refund is even more difficult and delayed 5,000 baht corrective measures “We don’t leave each other”
Previously, the administrators of the Social Security Office Mrs. Phitsamai Niphaibun Inspector General Social Security Office As a spokesperson for the Social Security Office, clarifying the concerns of policyholders and the media on the issue of the total social security fund of over 2 trillion baht, where has the fund been sufficient to pay for “unemployment” and other benefits? I would like to inform you that the unemployment fund There are currently more than 160,000 million in unemployment funds, which is enough to pay benefits to insurers.
The Social Security Office has preliminary estimates found that based on the number of people applying for unemployment benefits of 1.2 million, it is estimated that the total amount of 20,000 to 30,000 million baht, that the Office will have sufficient capital funds that will be used to pay those benefits No problem at all In addition to being prepared to set up liquidity for payment Ask the insurer to trust that the fund has sufficient funds. Furthermore, the 2 trillion baht investment is still complete. Never go away
“Social Security Investment Fund” As of March 31, 2020, in the amount of 2,032,841 million baht, invest in highly stable securities such as government bonds Bank of Thailand bonds Government-owned bonds guaranteed by the Ministry of Finance Corporate obligations with credit rating AND investment units in 1,671,176 million baht foreign bonds, representing 82 percent of the capital fund.
And invest in securities such as ordinary shares, investment units in foreign shares Real estate investment units Gold infrastructure of 361.665 million baht, representing 18 percent of the capital fund This is in accordance with the regulation of the Social Security Committee, requiring a security of at least 60 percent, which is invested in government bonds that are higher than other types of securities.
In summary, the “SSO spokesperson” says that when the “unemployment funds” are 160 billion baht for the unemployed, 1.2 million people will pay 62% each, which is expected to be 20,000 to 30,000 million baht, over one hundred billion left
Including if “SSO Board” Investment management From the investments of the social security fund with 2,032,841 million baht for efficiency Probably growing more, right?
Do not forget that the comments of “Chirayu concerned about property” President of the Commission of Judicial Affairs, Independent Organizations, Prosecutors, Organizations and Public Funds. From the House of Representatives A lot of money is invested in various ways, including investing in government bonds up to 1.5 trillion baht, which looks like asthma, up to 68 percent. The rest is used to buy private bonds, about a billion baht to invest in instruments. Nationwide, over 200 billion baht to invest in property and approximately 80 billion baht gold market
The rest of the Social Security Office has deposited in banks and invested in national and international instruments, including high-risk state company bonds. About one hundred billion baht
“There are approximately 1.2 million insurers unemployed. If only 7,000 baht is given to help, only 8 billion baht will be spent. The government pays 3 months, spending around 24 billion baht, just 2% of the total fund.”
While MR Jatumongkol Sonakul Labor Minister I would like to propose the matter to the Cabinet (Cabinet) to increase the insured funds affected by the Covidious virus outbreak from 62% to 75% and reduce the employers contribution from 4% to 1%
This is to help “Work buddies” That is in trouble, which is difficult “SSO Board” Have you ever sat in an ivory tower?
Resonance for “Insured, both working and unemployed” is the job of the “SSO Board” that oversees how well the “Fund” helps insurers in the age of crisis. Don’t let the tragic event be the first!
