DEVELOPMENT OF AN INFORMATION & COMMUNICATION TECHNOLOGY (ICT) PLAN FOR THE OPERATION OF A NEW NOTIONAL DEFINED CONTRIBUTION PENSION SCHEME
Through the adoption of a new Code on Social Security in 2007, the Government of Turkmenistan intends to implement reform of the public sector pension scheme to ensure the introduction of a mandatory pay-as-you-go pension scheme with a tight link between contribution and benefits, the introduction of a financially stable pension scheme and good coverage of the working-age population. The Code provides for the introduction of a new Notional Defined Contribution (NDC) pension scheme and establishment of a Pension Fund in 2012. The Ministry of Labour and Social Protection of Population (MLSPP), being responsible for effective implementation of public policy in the social security field, is undertaking preparatory work for the transfer to NDC pension scheme. The change accompanying the NDC pension reform will be characterized by: a new administrative process for pension; an increase in the dimension and character of contribution collection; the establishment of rights earned prior to 2012; and a new IT environment. As a part of this work, MLSPP together with its ongoing United Nations Development Programme (UNDP) Project “Support to Social Protection System Development” seeks a short-term international expert to help in the analysis and design of the infrastructure of the information systems for the operation of a new NDC pension scheme. It is expected that International Expert will work in close collaboration with the MLSPP Implementation Team, International Business Administration Expert, and national experts in pension system administration and ICT management. The National Project Coordinator and UNDP Project Technical Advisor will provide overall strategic guidance.
