Be basic terms and definition from the Social Security System Philippines (SSS) website, SSS sickness benefit is “a daily cash allowance paid for the number of days a member is unable to work due to sickness or injury”.

SSS Branches - Social Security System Philippines

With this benefit of a regular paying member who is currently employed, you will get paid via SSS check by which you can encash in any government bank. Before, it was PNB that allows this type of service. Please ask in your nearest SSS branch about this matter if you are to avail or apply for SSS sickness benefit.

Please do note that you can only enjoy this benefit if you are currently employed because it will be your employer who will pay for your daily cash allowance through the Social Security System office by check issuance.

    Dear Madam/ Sir,

    Greetings!

    I’m writing this letter to ask how much the minimum share for OFW? Last time I remember I paid 1500+ peso per month in 3 mos. but when I ask somebody who is also a OFW member they are just paying a minimum of 530 peso. and How I will change my previous share into minimum of 530 peso? also If my last share was last july 2011 how can I pay the succeeding mos. to update here in dubai.

    Looking forward to hear from you.

    With Kind Regards,
    Sarah

  • Nitche Rose Manacap says:

    Good day po.
    I am a cashier of a private company and it’s my first time to do the processing of the Sickness Reimbursement Application filed by my co-worker to our company. The application of my co-worker was being approved by SSS on May 2015 and granted to claim the 120 days sickness benefit at SSS. However, there is a new policy being published by SSS , that the employer should pay first the employee before the SSS will reimburse the company. Our verification and clarification at SSS is, if the company will pay the concerned employee of a certain amount, let’s say example: Php 27,000.00.
    Does the SSS will reimburse the employer of the same amount paid to the employee?
    If the said amount will be released by the company to the employee in August 2015 ,how many days/months does the SSS will reimburse the company for the said amount?
    Please send us your feedback on this matter soonest. Thank you so much!
