Bench Warrant For Ssnit Contribution Defaulters

BENCH WARRANTS have been issued by two courts in Accra for the arrest of some personalities for the non-payment of Social Security and National Insurance Trust (SSNIT) contributions of their employees.

The 15 personalities, who are the Directors of some companies in Accra, owe the SNNIT amounts ranging from GHc490.00 to GHc249, 925.35 and all efforts to retrieve the monies or arraign the defaulters before the courts by the Osu Branch of the SSNIT proved futile, and hence, the bench warrant.

The Osu Branch Manager of the SSNIT, Frank Molbilla told this paper that his outfit would do all it could to ensure that the monies are retrieved. He therefore, urged employees to invariably check on their SSNIT contributions to see if their employers are living up to expectation.

Mr. Molbilla also appealed to the general public to report companies that are defaulting in paying, stressing that the non-payment of contributions seriously affected the performance of the Trust.

Below are the names of the companies and Directors that have been issued with the bench warrant:
