One of the sources of funding for the Pension Fund of Ukraine is revenue from the payment of the single social contribution (SSC) for mandatory state social insurance.
The Single Social Contribution (SSC) combines mandatory contributions for:
pension insurance;
unemployment insurance;
temporary disability insurance;
insurance against workplace accidents or occupational diseases.
Payers of the single social contribution are required to pay 22% of the assessment base (salary, remuneration for work performed, or services provided).
An employee’s right to social protection depends on the payment of the SSC and the acquired insurance record, including:
🔹 pension entitlement;
🔹 sick leave payments;
🔹 unemployment benefits;
🔹 compensation in case of workplace accidents or occupational diseases.
Check that your employment is properly formalized, that insurance contributions are paid in full and on time, and verify the length of your insurance record via the web portal of electronic services of the Pension Fund of Ukraine:
