KUALA LUMPUR: The government is considering improving the Self-Employment Social Security Scheme Act 2017, particularly by broadening the coverage for self-employed individuals in unforeseen circumstances to provide more comprehensive protection.
Deputy Human Resources Minister Datuk Mustapha Sakmud said the matter is being studied with the Social Security Organisation (Socso) under the Employees’ Social Security Act 1969 and Employment Insurance System Act 2017, as well as other relevant regulations.
