What we do
What is Social Security and National Insurance Trust?
Social Security and National Insurance Trust (SSNIT) or the Trust is the administrator of Ghana’s Basic National Social Security Scheme known as the First Tier Pension Scheme. The SSNIT Scheme provides income security for every worker in Ghana including the self-employed.
Just as insurance companies provide insurance cover for contingencies such as accidents, burglary and fire, the SSNIT Scheme provides cover for loss of income due to old age, invalidity and death.
