Our employees participating in the Annual Staff Conference
Overall employee wellness remains a key focus for us. This encompasses physical, social, emotional and financial well-being. Throughout the Covid-19 pandemic, we took measures to ensure our employees could continue to work safely and feel supported. We continue to implement remedial wellness interventions, arising from the outcomes of our wellness baseline survey done in the last financial year.
The Fund is committed to providing a healthy and safe working environment for our employees. We do so by complying with all applicable legislation and regulatory and supervisory requirements.
The Fund has established an occupational, health and safety section in the Human Resources Department to enhance employee health and wellness. This has been pivotal in establishing and maintaining Covid-19 Standard Operating Procedures (SOPs).
We strongly believe a safe and healthy work place is crucial for employees to productively deliver desired services to valued customers. Our offices are designed to provide a healthy ambience characterised by a secure and hygienic environment.

The Fund has a wellness and fitness programme to enhance our commitment to our employees’ physical well-being and complement our medical insurance benefits. We believe that a healthy lifestyle, including regular exercise, translates into increased productivity at the work place. During the Covid-19 pandemic where all gyms were closed and most employees worked from home, the Fund encouraged employees through their wellness champions to devise other ways of exercising to stay healthy.
Socioeconomic factors generally trigger different categories of stress, which affect individuals at different life stages. Our employees’ well-being is supported by our constructive relationships with well-being service partners, both internally and externally. These include access to free counselling services for employees and their immediate families through our independent services provider M/S Healing Talk Counselling Services.
Counsellors follow a strict, professional code of ethics to protect personal privacy. All Fund employees and their immediate dependents can use the counselling services at no cost to the employee.

We strive for a harmonious and productive working environment based on trust and cooperation.
We believe employee engagement should be a two-way exercise with equal weight placed on listening to our employees and on keeping them informed. We want to be able to consider our employees’ perspectives when we make decisions, including at the most senior level.
We conduct an annual employee engagement survey that enables employees to provide feedback, and in the last two years employee engagement has been above 90%.
Our management team is equally assessed through a 360-degree review that enables employees to give feedback to their leaders, peers or direct reports. This feedback helps management identify areas of leadership strength as well as areas for development improvement.

Maintaining various channels of communication among members of staff is an ingrained part of the NSSF culture.
Several initiatives took place to engage with employees:
Several online communication platforms have been established to encourage employees to “speak”. The intranet is the focal point of our communications with daily updates across NSSF in Uganda and in the region.
