The Eastern Regional Manager, Mr. Joseph Kitonyi, accompanied by Kitui Branch Manager Mr. Edward Mugalla, Marsabit Branch Manager Mr. Nicholas Mutinda, and staff conducted an employer sensitization forum on March 9, 2026, at Parkside Villa Hotel in Kitui.
The engagement aimed to educate and update employers on their obligations, recent developments, and best practices under the National Social Security Fund (NSSF) framework. This initiative forms part of the Fund’s ongoing efforts to enhance compliance and expand social security coverage across the country. Adding valuable perspectives, the forum was attended and addressed by leaders from key workers’ unions, including representatives from the Kenya Union of Commercial, Food and Allied Workers (KUCFAW) and KUDHEIHA (Kenya Union of Domestic, Hotels, Educational Institutions, Hospitals and Allied Workers).
Their participation underscored the importance of collaboration between employers, employees, and regulatory institutions in promoting fair labour practices and securing retirement benefits for workers. The successful engagement reflects NSSF Kitui Branch’s commitment to proactive stakeholder engagement and strengthening social security awareness in the region.
