FAQ

Would it be compulsory for me to contribute to SOCSO?

Yes, under Act 789, two (2) sectors are Compulsory to be registered, namely the Passenger Transport sector and the Goods or Food Transport sector. Any Self-Employed Person (OBS) who is self-employed or involved in earning a living in both sectors is required to register with SOCSO.
