The Social Security System (SSS) said Friday all its branch offices nationwide will remain open and operate on regular business hours to accommodate its members, pensioners and claimants as it implements a flexible work arrangement on June 3, 2024 to help mitigate traffic congestion especially in Metro Manila.
SSS president and chief executive Rolando Ledesma Macasaet said that under the flexible work arrangement, the SSS headquarters in Quezon City and its corporate office in Makati would have a one-day work from home and four-day work in office schedule, while all SSS branch offices nationwide including SSS Diliman Branch would continue to be opened daily.
Macasaet said the employees reporting in the SSS main office in Quezon City would be working from home on Mondays and in the office from Tuesdays to Fridays.
“Meanwhile, SSS employees reporting in our corporate office in Makati will be working in the office every Mondays to Thursdays and will be working from home on Fridays,” Macasaet said.
Macasaet said the business operations of 254 SSS branch offices nationwide would not be hampered by the modified work schedule.
“We want to notify everyone that SSS branch offices nationwide including our SSS Diliman Branch in Quezon City will continue to be open every day and they will follow their normal operations, ensuring the seamless delivery of services to our members, pensioners and their beneficiaries,” Macasaet said.
SSS executive vice president Voltaire Agas said all branch offices would be open from 8 a.m. until 5.m. from Monday to Friday, while selected SSS offices in the malls would start their operations from 9 a.m. until 6 p.m., from Monday to Saturday.
“All our branch offices will continue to accept various SSS transactions, including tellering services in SSS offices with tellering facility,” Agas said.
