Khaberni - Social insurance expert Musa Al-Subaihi stated that social security should not be a way of enriching oneself or remain only at subsistence level.
He pointed out that the appearance of hefty retirement salaries indicates a structural flaw in the insurance system that necessitates a thorough review of the salary calculation mechanisms.
He confirmed that the current data from the Social Security Corporation reveals a stark disparity that touches the core of social justice, with an irrational scene where there are 275 retirees, alive, whose retirement salaries exceed 5,000 dinars per month.
Here is what Al-Subaihi wrote:
I have repeatedly affirmed that the essence of social security is to achieve social sufficiency, and it should neither be a way to become wealthy nor remain at mere subsistence level.
From this perspective, the emergence of hefty retirement salaries is considered a structural flaw in the insurance system, demanding a radical review of the mechanisms for calculating these salaries, as the reality of the data from the Social Security Corporation reveals a stark disparity affecting the essence of social justice. We are faced with an illogical scene where there are 275 retirees (may God prolong their lives) with salaries exceeding five thousand dinars, and their average reaches seven thousand dinars, imposing an enormous annual cost on the Social Security treasury amounting to 25 million dinars.
On the other hand, 32 thousand retirees cumulatively suffer from low salaries that fall below 200 dinars.
This data presents us with a moral and national question: What kind of logic allows the luxuries of some at the expense of the living security of thousands of families?
I am convinced that addressing this flaw cannot be considered a reduction of rights, but rather a necessary re-establishment of social justice, which compels us to support the proposed legislative amendment in this aspect as a national duty, which can be accomplished in one of two ways:
The first approach: either through the actuarial recalculation of these exorbitant salaries based on a fair actuarial cost and establishing a reasonable cap to prevent unjustified salary inflation.
The second approach: or through social solidarity deductions from them by imposing a solidarity deduction on these high salaries, as an immediate mechanism to restore balance and allocate these funds to support the lower salary categories.
Justice in the social security system requires us to begin correcting this structural flaw that affects the distribution of rights by demanding an insurance system that protects everyone and achieves the purpose it was established for, away from favoring the interest of a few at the expense of a majority deserving of sufficiency.
Social necessity and national interest require the appropriate legislative decision to resolve this flaw whether people agree or not.
