It’s the desire of every contributor of the Social Security and National Insurance Trust (SSNIT), that he or she will retire one day with something that can take care of old age.
The reality here as to the size of benefit a contributor takes home is not determined on the final day. There are factors that give an impression of what the future will be for you.
It is worth mentioning that:
1. SSNIT scheme is earnings related
2. Generally members with higher salaries receive higher pensions or benefits for the dependants in the event of death of a deceased member.
3. It is also important to note that a pension is a replacement of part of an income and therefore cannot be more than an income a member earned prior to retirement.
4. Finally, the SSNIT scheme has an inherent mechanism for reviewing pensions every year.
Additionally, The Pension Right is 2.5% for each year of contribution for the first 15 years and 1.125% for every additional year up to maximum of 60.0%. To qualify for Reduced Pension, You must be 55 years and above but below 60 years of age.
