The National Social Security Fund (NSSF) is a statutory government agency in Uganda that manages social security contributions for employees in the country. Under the current NSSF Act cap 222, it is a requirement for employers to register their companies/businesses for the NSSF voluntary membership plan. This applies to all employers, including those who may be the only employees of their businesses. The enrollment process falls under the Voluntary Employers category. Once membership enrollment is complete, individuals or employers will have to make monthly contributions to the selected membership plan.
