The Public Authority for Social Insurance or PASI is the solitary
social insurance institute in Oman which covers up all Omanis who work in the
private segment. The social insurance law issuance was a measure of the
government's inventiveness to branch out the economy and also inspired the
young generations in Oman to make their careers within the private segment. The
role of PASI has been sturdy during the course of the preceding years and can
easily be seen commencing the expansion of the number of employees along with
the employers, who are protected by the improvement of benefits. PASI also has
modified the social insurance scheme as well. In the benefits part, the
benefits level provided by PASI witnessed a fantastic growth if compared with
other insurance company in Oman. That consist of growing the accumulation
aspect in the formulation designed for estimating pensions, and similarly, a
minimum pension was announced, and then augmented as a minimum three times to
touch an existing level of . Further benefits were also
enriched in the entire divisions of social insurance provided by PASI.
From here, we can take the
conclusion that the Public
Authority for Social Insurance has a different purpose with other insurance
company in Oman. PASI has the purpose of giving more benefits for the Omanis
and can be said that PASI has always been in the employees’ side. On the other
hand, some other insurance companies might not in either employees or
employers’ side. The reason is obvious; the insurance companies are the
companies who aim to get profits in the business, as all of the companies are.
Therefore, they will always pay attention to benefit their own companies rather
than their clients. Hence, even though these insurance companies might provide
interesting insurance packages for their clients, but still, the insurance
companies will establish some intricate procedures for the clients to get their
insurance, since the top priority is to get the profits for the company, not
for the clients (globallegalinsights.com, n.d.).
