Skim i-SURI: Pelaksanaan Di kalangan Suri Rumah Menurut Perspektif Undang-undang (i-SURI Scheme: Its Implementation Among Housewives from Legal Perspective)

Nor Anita Abdullah, Harlida Abdul Wahab, Asmar Abdul Rahim

Abstract


i-SURI Scheme was introduced by the government on 15th August 2018 as a special government incentive for the housewives and women who registered in the National Poverty Database (eKasih). However, the implementation of i-SURI Scheme has not yet fully implemented due to some constraints in the provisions in the Employees Provident Fund Act 1991. The question arises is with respect to the implementation of the scheme, whether it is similar as to the existing Employees Provident Fund (EPF) scheme or different. From the implementational aspect of EPF scheme, contributions made by employees who are also contributors can only be fully withdrawn when reached the age of retirement. Therefore, this article aims to see the implementation of the concept of i-SURI Scheme if still can apply the existing contribution scheme in the EPF itself

 

Abstrak

Skim i-SURI diperkenalkan oleh kerajaan pada 15 Ogos 2018 sebagai insentif khas Kerajaan untuk Suri Rumah dan wanita yang berdaftar dalam Pangkalan Data Kemiskinan Nasional (eKasih). Walau bagaimanapun, pelaksanaan Skim i-SURI ini masih belum dapat dilaksanakan sepenuhnya lantaran terdapat kekangan yang melibatkan beberapa peruntukan penting dalam Akta Kumpulan Wang Simpanan Pekerja 1991 (Akta KWSP 1991). Persoalan yang timbul ialah berkenaan dengan pelaksanaan skim ini, adakah sama sepertimana pelaksanaan skim Kumpulan Wang Simpanan Pekerja (KWSP) sedia ada atau berbeza. Jika dilihat dari aspek pelaksanaan skim KWSP, caruman yang dibuat oleh pekerja yang juga merupakan pencarum hanya boleh dikeluarkan secara sepenuhnya apabila telah sampai tempoh umur persaraan sahaja. Oleh itu, makalah ini bertujuan untuk melihat pelaksanaan konsep Skim i-SURI sekiranya boleh menggunapakai skim caruman sedia ada dalam KWSP itu sendiri.
