Nepal Social Security Fund, explained.
The Social Security Fund contribution is 31% of the employee's Basic salary - 11% deducted from the employee and 20% contributed by the employer on top of the salary. The combined 31% is deposited to the SSF each month.
On Basic salary. Nepali salary structures split gross pay into Basic and Allowance, and the 11% + 20% SSF contribution is assessed on the Basic component, not the full gross.
No. The employer's 20% is paid in addition to the salary and does not come out of the employee's pay. Only the employee's own 11% is deducted from their salary; the take-home is reduced by that 11% (plus any TDS).
The Social Security Fund provides schemes covering medical treatment, health and maternity, accident and disability, dependant/family protection, and old-age pension for enrolled contributors, per the Contribution Based Social Security Act.
