Social Security - General Organisation

Participation in social insurance gives the possibility of benefit cover for contingencies such as unemployment, sickness, maternity, occupational disease, disability and death etc. And, of course, it facilitates pensions for the self-employed, the old-age pension and the survivor’s pension.
