SSNIT Urges Workers to Join Pension Scheme to Secure Their Future as Investments and Services Continue to Grow.
The Deputy Director-General in charge of Operations and Benefits at the Social Security and National Insurance Trust (SSNIT), Mr Adam Sulley, has encouraged all employees to join the pension scheme, describing SSNIT as a reliable and secure institution.
He explained that the Trust continues to invest heavily, with its assets showing steady growth. According to him, SSNIT’s total assets increased from GHC20 billion in 2024 to GHC25 billion in 2025. He further advised workers to ensure that their employers consistently remit their monthly contributions to safeguard their future benefits.
Mr Sulley shared these remarks during an interview with the media at a regional forum organised by SSNIT in partnership with the Trades Union Congress (TUC) in Sunyani. The forum was part of a broader national initiative aimed at improving understanding of pension systems and strengthening cooperation between SSNIT and organised labour.
The event was themed “Empowering Unions, Secure Futures: Deepening Pension Literacy across Ghana”, and it sought to educate workers and trade unions on pension matters while promoting transparency and engagement.
He also highlighted the availability of SSNIT’s digital services, noting that employees no longer need to visit physical offices to access services, as they can conveniently use online platforms from their homes or workplaces.
The Secretary-General of the TUC, Mr Joshua Ansah, expressed appreciation to SSNIT for the nationwide engagement, stating that it has helped workers and unions better understand the operations of the Trust while improving openness and accountability within the system.
