Key developments in FY 2025
As we celebrate 40 years of NSSF’s journey, we recognise that our people have always been the heartbeat of the Fund. Every milestone achieved has been made possible by their creativity, dedication, and integrity. Guided by our human capital strategy, we are committed to nurturing talent, cultivating a culture of excellence, and supporting the holistic well-being of our employees and their families.
From attracting and retaining top talent to empowering meaningful contributions through our total rewards programme, we continue to build a workplace where our people feel valued, engaged, and inspired, ensuring that the legacy of NSSF thrives for generations to come.
Occupational safety and health
As part of NSSF’s commitment to safe and healthy workplaces, several initiatives were implemented during the financial year to safeguard employees and visitors across all offices.
Through these initiatives, the Fund continues to invest in creating a safe, supportive, and resilient workplace, one that protects employees while reflecting our broader mission of building a Fund that will endure for generations to come.
Key initiatives
Road safety sensitisation
Staff received virtual training from the Uganda Police Traffic Department on new traffic regulations, fines, speed limits, and vehicle inspection requirements, enhancing awareness of road safety practices.
Personal Protective Equipment (PPEs)
All Fund pool cars were equipped with gumboots and overall coats to protect Logistics Assistants during vehicle breakdowns or emergency checks, ensuring their safety during operations.
No Smoking Policy
The Fund institutionalised a smoke-free workplace by installing “No Smoking” signage across all branches and departments, enabling staff and security to enforce compliance effectively.
Basic mechanics training
All Logistics assistants received training in basic vehicle diagnostics and repair, equipping them with practical skills to handle minor breakdowns safely and efficiently.
OSH Champions training
A network of 48 OSH Champions received annual training facilitated by the Uganda Police, covering areas such threat identification, counterterrorism, fire safety, and emergency preparedness. Practical drills were also conducted to reinforce safety awareness and strengthen workplace resilience.
Employee health and well-being
“A Healthy Lifestyle for a Better Life”
As the Fund marks 40 years of service, the wellness of our people remains central to our human capital strategy. We recognise that employee well-being, physical, mental, social, and financial, is critical to sustaining productivity, strengthening engagement, and nurturing a thriving workplace culture. Over the years we have scaled up our wellness agenda, ensuring that staff feel supported to live healthier, more balanced, and more fulfilling lives.
