National Campaign Launched to Encourage Worker Registration for Social Security
Listen to the story
Algeria's social security fund, known as CNAS, has launched a national awareness campaign. The campaign explains why it is important to register workers with social security.
The campaign encourages employers to declare their workers officially. Declaring a worker means informing social security authorities that the person is employed.
When workers are declared, they gain access to important benefits. These can include healthcare coverage, financial support during illness, and pensions after retirement.
Many workers in Algeria are not officially declared. This leaves them without protection if they become sick, injured, or unable to work.
The new campaign aims to raise public awareness about this problem. It also hopes to persuade more companies to follow the law correctly.
The campaign has reached several regions across the country. One example is the city of Mila, where local events were held to explain the campaign's goals.
Social security officials have stressed that declaring workers is not only a legal duty but also a way to protect employees' rights and futures.
The campaign is expected to continue reaching more cities, with the aim of improving worker protection nationwide. Officials hope this effort will reduce the number of undeclared workers across different sectors of the economy.
