Social Security System Mindanao North legal counsel Jhon Edgar Ipan files charges against a car spare parts importer at the Prosecutor’s Office in Cagayan de Oro City for non-remittance of SSS contributions as a part of the nationwide Run After Contribution Evaders campaign.The Social Security System said Wednesday it filed criminal charges against four business establishments for P15 million in unremitted employees’ contributions plus penalties.
Macasaet said in a statement a restaurant under the name Juanito Galvez, fire extinguisher’s retail-refilling supplier Chedda General Merchandise, BPO service provider e-Telecare and car spare parts importer Cinwha Trading Corp. deprived their 140 employees of availing SSS benefits or applying for loans because of non-remittance of their contributions.
Macasaet said the legal actions taken by SSS against the employers proved that SSS was serious and determined to penalize business establishments who failed to deduct and remit the monthly contributions of their workers. Cuisia said it issued notices of violation and show cause orders to erring employers compelling them to settle their contribution delinquencies and comply with their obligations under Republic Act No. 11199.
