Connecting with our customers is the only real way to measure their satisfaction. One of the most common methods of measuring customer satisfaction is through surveys. Respondents record their feedback via multiple-choice, rating and open-ended questions.

 

Surveys have played a major role in extracting timely information and public opinion on some of GPSSA’s services. In parallel, it offers an opportunity for members of the public to engage and learn more about the UAE's Pension and Social Security Law.

The results gathered are a major enabler towards continuous development, since they not only serve GPSSA’s purpose in including users in its decision-making process, they also enhance public participation and awareness.

· If they become entitled to a gratuity for their subsequent service period, the gratuity shall be disbursed to them, and the suspended pension shall be reinstated for disbursement

If an employer paid excess amounts to the GPSSA, is there a specific period within which they have the right to claim them back?

Yes, the employer may reclaim any amounts they paid to the GPSSA that exceed the required contributions, but under condition that they claim them within two years from the date of payment.

Is there a mechanism that the Insured, Pensioner, Beneficiary, or any interested party must follow to claim their rights and have reconsidered before resorting to litigation?

Before a rights holder can go to court, they must first appeal the pension or gratuity decision to the Insurance Appeals Committee formed by the Board of Directors, and this must be done within five years of becoming entitled to the pension or end-of-service payment. This means the committee must be petitioned before taking legal action against the employer, and the appeal has a five-year deadline.
