NATIONAL PENSION SCHEME

THE ADVANTAGES OF THE NEW CONTRIBUTORY PENSION SCHEME

d.) It has considerably reduced the hardship which pensioners usually experience before they collect their pension benefits.

e.) It affords the employees some protection and comfort (in their old age) after their retirement.
