The average days that claims were processed and paid during the year under review was 1.8 days, which was actually an improvement when compared with the number of days in the prior year, where the Fund took an average of 2.47 days.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>According to the report, ENPF has divulged that when it comes to compliance they are lagging behind their own benchmark.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cRegarding compliance rate, the Fund continues to lag behind its set benchmark of 92%. During the year under review, the Fund achieved an average compliance rate of 86.96% which was an increase from last year\u2019s rate of 84.67%. This year\u2019s compliance rate though lower than the prior year compares favourably to other pension and provident funds worldwide.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>In terms of contributions for the financial year under review, ENPF realized an 8% increase.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cContributions received for the year ended 30 June 2022 amounted to E421.9 million (2021: E387.5 million) and represented a year-on-year increase of 8% (2020:2.4% increase). The year-on-year increase as compared to 2021 is largely due to the annual increase in contributions of 6.45% as well as the economic impact of the uplifting of Covid-19 lockdown restrictions on employment as reflected in the year-on-year increase in membership from 137 903 in 2021 to 138 021 in 2022.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cBenefits paid by the Fund for the 2021\/22 financial year was E233,2 million (2020\/21: E202,8 million). This represents a year-on-year increase of 13%,\u201d added the Fund.<\/p>\n<p><strong>For More News And Analysis About <a href=\"https:\/\/www.africa-press.net\/eswatini\">Eswatini<\/a> Follow <a href=\"https:\/\/www.africa-press.net\/\">Africa-Press<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Africa-Press &#8211; Eswatini.
