IP Contribution in EOBI:
The contribution rate for IPs in EOBI is 6% of the lower
of basic salary/wages or Rs. 32,000. The maximum contribution is Rs. 1920 per
insured person per month.
The following are the steps on how to calculate the IP
contribution in EOBI:
Find the lower of the basic salary/wages or Rs. 32,000.
Multiply the amount by 6%.
The maximum contribution is Rs. 1920 per insured person
per month.
For example, if the basic salary of an IP is Rs. 32,000,
then the IP contribution will be 6% of Rs. 1920.
If the basic salary of an IP is Rs. 32,000, then the IP
contribution will be 6% of Rs. 1920. The IP contribution is payable by the
employer on behalf of the IP. The employer must deposit the contribution to the
EOBI within 15 days of the end of the month in which the contribution is due.
If the employer fails to deposit the contribution on
time, they will be liable to pay a penalty. The penalty is 1% of the amount of
the contribution per day of delay, up to a maximum of 12%.
The IP contribution is used to provide a number of
benefits to IPs, including:
Old-age pension
Survivor pension
Invalidity pension
Medical benefits
Maternity benefits
Funeral benefits
The IP contribution is an important part of the social
security system in Pakistan. It helps to ensure that IPs have a secure
retirement and that they are protected in the event of disability or death.
Statutory Increase in EOBI:
The statutory increase in EOBI is a provision in the
Employees' Old-Age Benefits Act, 1976 that allows the government to increase
the contribution rates payable by employers and employees. The increase is
calculated as a percentage of the minimum wage prescribed by the government.
The last statutory increase in EOBI was made in 2018. The
contribution rates were increased by 2% for both employers and employees. The
new contribution rates are as follows:
Employer: 5% of the minimum wages
Employee: 1% of the minimum wages
The statutory increase in EOBI is intended to ensure that the fund has sufficient resources to meet its obligations to beneficiaries. The fund is currently facing a financial crisis due to a number of factors, including the rising cost of living and the declining number of contributors.
