Al-Sybahi urges social security coverage for national service after Sahrawi incident
Insurance and Social Protection Expert Musa Al-Subaihyi has called for conscripts in military service to be subject to the provisions of the Social Security Law. This comes in the wake of a road accident on the desert highway that resulted in the deaths of five people, including four conscripts, and injuries to 18 others. He clarified that providing them with comprehensive insurance coverage has become a necessity and a human responsibility. This should include work-related injuries, traffic accidents during service, as well as insurance for old age, disability, and death. Al-Subaihyi proposed that insurance contributions be calculated based on the minimum wage (290 dinars), with contribution rates distributed so that the government bears 6.5%, and the employer contributes 13%. He emphasized the importance of considering previous contributions made by the conscripts to ensure their insurance and retirement rights. The goal is to protect their families and provide fair pensions and compensations in cases of death or injury.
