SLV/16/02/RBS Americas El Salvador Completed This project is part of the Global Flagship Programme on Building Social Protection Floors for All

Description

This project aims at developing a social protection floor. In 2009, El Salvador adopted the Universal Social Protection System (SPSU) in order to organize its social protection programmes, both contributory and non-contributory. The SPSU is based on a social protection rights approach and conceptually incorporates the vision of the social protection floor through the combination of universal and focused interventions. The country faces important challenges in terms of the implementation of the system. ILO’s technical support focuses on an actuarial valuation of the Health Insurance and Occupational Health Insurance Schemes at the Salvadoran Institute of Social Security (ISSS), as well as on the improvement of the institutional management to ensure that the extension of contributory coverage functions as a formalization strategy. TILO will provide assistance to strengthen the design of El Salvador's social protection floor and contribute to the formulation of sound implementation strategies.
