Socso grace period for employers

KUALA LUMPUR: A two-month grace period will be given for employers to register their companies and employees with the Social Security Organisation (Socso) before the start of the 14th Ops Kesan in July.

Those who register from May 2 to June 30 will be exempted from needing to pay any compounds, interest on late payment of contributions or legal action even if they had exceeded the previously set period to register and contribute, said Socso chief executive Datuk Seri Dr Mohammed Azman Aziz Mohammed.
