About this Seminar
This Seminar is being organised by skillsmalta.
The Social Security Act (Cap 318) provides for a two-thirds Contributory Scheme, for a Retirement Pension Scheme, and for a Non-Contributory Age Pension. Eligibility for a two-thirds pension and retirement pension rests on pension age, contribution record, and pensionable income. For a non-contributory age pension, eligibility depends on age and on specific conditions of a means test.
This seminar is a comprehensive exploration of the intricacies surrounding social security benefits and retirement planning. In this two-hour session, we aim to equip you with a deep understanding of the key concepts, regulations, and strategies related to social security pensions.
This training will be delivered by Mr. George Cremona.
