Wee: Transport drivers, delivery riders must contribute to Socso scheme


Nominal sum: The contribution under the scheme could amount to RM157 a year or RM13.10 per month, says Dr Wee.

IT will be mandatory for p-hailing riders and self-employed transportation providers to register for the Self Employment Social Security Scheme (SKSPS), says Transport Minister Datuk Seri Dr Wee Ka Siong.

He said the registration for the scheme under the Social Security Organisation (Socso) would be a prerequisite for vocational licence application for ehailing, taxi, bus and p-hailing drivers and riders.
