This figure is particularly worrying just announced yesterday by the National Statistics Office (NSO): Half of employees Algerians are not affiliated with a social security fund. Figures revealed by the NSO are bad: half of the employed population of Algeria was not affiliated to social security, the 4th quarter of 2009, a rate of 50.4% & s # 39; all occupied. According to a 2009 survey by the Office, it's almost 4,778,000 persons employed on 9,472,000 recorded in Q4 last year that are not affiliated with the security system social, a busy two. The survey was conducted on a sample of 15,104 households. " The proportion of employed in rural areas that are not affiliated to social security (60.1%) is much higher than in urban areas occupied (46.3), the NSO noted. On the other hand, 69.1% of non-permanent employees and 80.1% of self employed were not affiliated to social security during the same period. These figures are thus confirming the social reality of many Algerians, unable, because of their low incomes, ensure social security coverage to their families and dependents.
Yazid Alila, Quotidien d'Oran (July 27, 2010) - At 1 January 2010, the Algerian population was officially 35.6 million. The age distribution indicates that the population under 15 years constitute 28.2% of the total population and those under 5 years 10%. As the population of working age (15-59 years), it continues to represent the largest proportion in the population, stabilizing at around 64.4%, and the third age (60 years and over ) is 7.4%. Overall, they are almost 10 million people, if based on the survey of the NSO, which are neither insured nor covered by any social security scheme.
And what is even more dramatic for the proponents of social protection is at the same time, the costs of medicines, including those of chronic diseases, have become out of reach of scholarships modest.
On another note, the ONS figures show any extreme social disadvantage in which many millions of Algerians, forgotten by the official channels of coverage. As for the employed population is not affiliated to social security by sector of activity, the ONS survey showed a 89% of workers in agriculture and 79.8% in the construction industry.
is in the private sector that the greatest number of workers not covered by social security coverage is most important. In the private sector, 77.1% of workers reported not being covered by social insurance, a proportion of occupied three out of four. And what is worse, according to the ONS survey is that virtually all sectors are affected by this situation. Thus, the phenomenon affects nearly 91.5% of private agricultural employment, 85% of employment in construction, 72.7% commerce, 65.3% of industrial employment and 63.5% of employment in the services sector. The phenomenon is thus structural and affect many private businesses, both in primary and secondary and tertiary.
The ONS survey, which does not explain the reasons for this phenomenon is, however bare the access system social security coverage in Algeria. As she reveals serious deficiencies in private companies, many of whom do not insure their employees, most hired as seasonal agricultural or over the term of life of construction sites.
In the private service sector, catering, transport or public houses (pubs), it is a different story. Although 80% of Algerians live in social security, pensions and pensions between, as was stated there that almost five years as the Minister of Labour and Social Security, Mr. Tayeb Louh, the picture of the sector "is chilling," when we know that millions of Algerians do not enjoy all their social rights.
