GPSSA updates the data of customers on the Ma’ashi platform to ensure accuracy

Abu Dhabi, 9th January 2025 – The General Pension and Social Security Authority (GPSSA) announced at the end of last October that its services have been transformed to the Ma’ashi digital platform to provide the best services to customers across all categories with transparency, whether the customer is an insured, pensioner, beneficiary or employer.

 

Ma’ashi is not an experimental platform, rather an official platform through which the GPSSA aspires to provide various benefits, the most important of which is the automation of services for employers, insured individuals, pensioners and beneficiaries, and enabling the customer to follow-up on requests via the platform.

 

It should be noted that the platform has been designed so that customers can review and verify their data and ensure its accuracy.

 

Customers can view their personal files, insurance data and registration details in a detailed and direct manner for the first time. They can view monthly contribution payments deducted from their monthly salary by their employers, in addition to years of service and other details that may be incomplete due to the employer’s failure to continuously update their employee’s data, especially during the transitioning process from the previous platform to the new one.

 

Since the launch of the Ma’ashi platform on 28th October 2024, a total of 26,639 invoices have been issued for 144,452 insured individuals, with up to 17,990 registration requests and 5741 end-of-service transactions. A total of 265 merge request (adding employment years from the previous entity to the subsequent one) has been reported, with up to 25 services related to purchasing employment years.

 

Based on the above, the GPSSA issued a press release on 18th November 2024 to customers, in which it indicated that the work teams would review data on the Ma’ashi platform to ensure that it matches the data maintained by the Authority, immediately after receiving a support request from customers on the platform and reviewing it according to the previous system, as well as communicating with employers, insured individuals and pensioners in order to ensure data accuracy.

 

 

 

While the GPSSA reassures customers of their insurance rights without prejudice, it is vital that they report any discrepancy they discover in their data once detected. This can be done by entering the Ma’ashi platform using their Emirates ID and updating their personal file, family book file, financial and employment data and the rest of the documents required until the customer file is shown to be 100% complete. If there are any inaccurate details in their data, customers may submit a support request through the system or send their comments through GPSSA’s call center on 80010.

 

It is worth noting that GPSSA’s call center receives more than 2,500 calls daily. Alternatively, customers can revert to the website and GPSSA’s chatbot service, or to the unified account on Instagram, X, and Facebook (GPSSAAE), or visit the service center in Abu Dhabi, Al Twar in Dubai, or in Ras Al Khaimah in the Sheikh Zayed Housing Program.

If a pensioner from the GPSSA returns to work, and their pension disbursement was suspended because their salary was greater than the pension amount, and they contribute again under the provisions of the law, how will their service be settled in the future if they leave work?

· If they become entitled to a pension for their subsequent service period, they shall be disbursed the larger of the two pensions, whether it's the one they are entitled to for their previous service period or for their subsequent service period

· If they become entitled to a gratuity for their subsequent service period, the gratuity shall be disbursed to them, and the suspended pension shall be reinstated for disbursement

If an employer paid excess amounts to the GPSSA, is there a specific period within which they have the right to claim them back?

Yes, the employer may reclaim any amounts they paid to the GPSSA that exceed the required contributions, but under condition that they claim them within two years from the date of payment.

Is there a mechanism that the Insured, Pensioner, Beneficiary, or any interested party must follow to claim their rights and have reconsidered before resorting to litigation?

Before a rights holder can go to court, they must first appeal the pension or gratuity decision to the Insurance Appeals Committee formed by the Board of Directors, and this must be done within five years of becoming entitled to the pension or end-of-service payment. This means the committee must be petitioned before taking legal action against the employer, and the appeal has a five-year deadline.
