“Please note that the Commission shall take appropriate regulatory actions against employers who fail to comply with the directive by December 31st 2023 in line with the provisions of the PRA 2014,” PenCom had said.
However, the only employer published on the website of the National Pension Commission is Stanbic IBTC as seen by this Newspaper.
