SSS finds six more delinquent employers in Taguig

The Social Security System (SSS) on Tuesday reported that President and Chief Executive Officer Rolando Ledesma Macasaet, along with other agency officials, personally served this week notices of violation to six employers in Taguig City who were found to be delinquent on their employees' contributions.

This was part of the agency's continuing Run After Contribution Evaders (RACE) campaign and operations to cite delinquent employers around the country.

Macasaet, while serving two of the six employers, urged the owners of a pharmacy and a household appliances retail store to settle their contribution delinquencies.

The two establishments, according to Macasaet, failed to remit the contributions of their workers and were found to have non-production of records. The two employers incurred P3.4 million in unpaid workers' contributions and penalties.

Macasaet said the employers cited have only 15 days to coordinate with the SSS Bicutan-Sun Valley Branch and settle their contribution delinquencies to avoid the filing of civil, criminal, and administrative cases against them for violating Republic Act No. 11199 or the Social Security Act of 2018.

Joining Macasaet at the said RACE operation were SSS Executive Vice President for Branch Operations Sector Voltaire P. Agas, Vice President for Operations Legal Services Division I Renato Jacinto S. Cuisia, and Social Security Commissioner representing the Employers' Group Robert Joseph M. De Claro.
