Social Security System
INTRODUCTION

The concept of social security evolved from an age-old search of man for protection against
poverty, which breeds grave social ills that not only threaten his survival but also erode his
sense of human dignity. It, therefore, becomes the duty of the State to operate a mechanism
that would provide such protection to its people.

Legislative History

On Jan. 26, 1948, Pres. Manuel A. Roxas proposed a bill seeking to establish a social security
system for wage earners and low-salaried employees. This was recommended to Congress in
his State of the Nation Address.

After the death of President Roxas, Pres. Elpidio Quirino created the Social Security Study
Commission on July 7, 1948. The creation of the commission was his first official act upon his
assumption to office. Based on the report of the Study Commission, a draft of the Social
Security Act was submitted to Congress.

In 1954, Rep. Floro Crisologo, Senators Cipriano Primicias and Manuel Briones introduced bills
based on the report of the Social Security Study Commission in the House of Representatives
and in the Senate. These bills were consolidated and enacted into Republic Act (RA) 1161,
better known as the Social Security Act of 1954.

However, business and labor groups objected to the Social Security Act resulting to a deferment
of its implementation.

In 1957, amendatory bills were presented in Congress. These bills were the bases of RA 1792,
which amended the original Social Security Act.

On Sept. 1, 1957, the Social Security Act of 1954 or the Social Security Law (SS Law) was
finally implemented, marking a significant milestone in the social security program.

Thus, with the implementation of the SS Law, the government also adopted the social insurance
approach to social security, covering the employed segment of the labor force in the private
sector. In 1993, household helpers earning at least P1,000 were included in the compulsory
coverage of employees.

In 1980, some groups of self-employed persons were also required to contribute to the social
security fund from which benefits are paid upon the occurrence of a contingency provided by
law. Self-employed farmers and fisherfolks were included in the program in 1992 while workers
in the informal sector earning at least P1,000 a month such as ambulant vendors and watch-
your-car boys, were covered in 1995.

The Social Security System (SSS) administers social security protection to workers in the
private sector. On the other hand, the Government Service Insurance System (GSIS) takes care
of workers in the public sector.
The SSS administers two programs namely:

1. The Social Security Program; and

2. The Employees’ Compensation Program (EC).

Social security provides replacement income for workers in times of death, disability, sickness,
maternity and old age.

On May 1, 1997, Pres. Fidel V. Ramos signed RA 8282, further strengthening the SSS. Also
known as the Social Security Act of 1997, it amended RA 1161, providing for better benefit
packages, expansion of coverage, flexibility of investments, stiffer penalties for violators of the
law, condonation of penalties of delinquent employers and the establishment of a voluntary
provident fund for members.

The EC program, started in 1975, provides double compensation effective June 1984 to the
worker when the illness, death or accident occurs during work-related activities. EC benefits are
granted only to members with employers other than themselves.

SSS used to administer the Medicare program for hospitalization and other medical needs of
the private sector workers; and the Government Service Insurance System (GSIS), for the
public sector workers. However, with the passage of Republic Act 7875 or the National Health
Insurance Act of 1995, the SSS and GSIS transferred the administration of the Medicare
program to the Philippine Health Insurance Corporation (PhilHealth) for an integrated and
comprehensive approach to health development -effective July 1999.

SSS retirement, death and total disability pensioners prior to the effectivity of RA 7875 on March
4, 1995 are entitled to hospitalization benefits under PhilHealth. Pensioners upon the effectivity
of RA 7875 on March 4, 1995 and thereafter, are no longer covered except when they meet the
qualification requirements set by PhilHealth.
