Africa-Press – Mozambique. <\/strong><\/span>The National Institute of Social Security (INSS) is investing just over 175 million meticais (around US$2.7 million at current exchange rates) in the construction of the institution\u2019s new provincial branch in Maputo province.<\/p>\n

Minister of Labour and Social Security Margarida Adamugi Talapa laid the first stone for the new building in Matola on Monday morning, within the scope of expanding and improving INSS services to citizens.<\/p>\n

Work will last 15 months and consist of the construction of a modern building with a disabled access ramp, a 50-seat conference room and a 35,000-litre water tank, among other features.<\/p>\n

The infrastructure is part of a new plan being implemented by the INSS. The one-story building will guarantee dignified service to users, with meeting rooms, offices, a pantry, car park and guardhouse, plus a 250-kva power generator for emergencies.<\/p>\n

\u201cThis ceremony materializes one of the dreams of the population of this province, in general, of Social Security contributors and beneficiaries in this part of our province, specifically with regard to the creation of decent conditions for their assistance,\u201d Minister Talapa said on the occasion.<\/p>\n

The minister called on the contractor to prefer local labour and meet the 15-month deadline.<\/p>\n

The infrastructure is being built from scratch, occupying an area of 2,700 square metres, and will cost the INSS just over 175 million meticais.<\/p>\n

The minister urged INSS managers to focus on publicizing the benefits of registering with the INSS so that all social groups are incorporated.<\/p>\n

According to the minister, the benefits of registering with the INSS should reach everyone, especially the agricultural and livestock producers involved in the SUSTENTA program and the members of the associations of former miners and their dependents.<\/p>\n

These groups aside, Talapa exhorted self-employed workers to also join and pay contributions regularly, so that they too are eligible for INSS social protection benefits.<\/p>\n

As a way of ensuring that these benefits are actually implemented, Minister Talapa recommended that INSS managers \u201cimprove the criteria for disclosing the benefits of joining and regularly channelling contributions to the system, especially among self-employed workers, as a way of guaranteeing that they can benefit from social protection in the event of incapacity or reduced productivity\u201d.<\/p>\n

Talapa delivers various goods to pensioners and self-employed workers<\/b><\/p>\n

Also during the foundation stone ceremony, and coinciding with the start of the school year, Margarida Talapa took the opportunity to deliver to orphaned children and survivor pensioners, school material such as school bags, textbooks, notebooks, uniforms, equipment for physical education and pens, an initiative that falls within the scope of the INSS health programme.<\/p>\n

The minister also delivered kits of agricultural inputs, freezers, cooler boxes and sewing machines in support of self-employed entrepreneurship.<\/p>\n

The laying of the first stone for the construction of the INSS provincial delegation in Maputo was attended by Governor Ju\u0301lio Parruque and President of Matola Municipal Council Calisto Cossa.<\/p>\n
