In order to provide an overview of issues relating to the application of ratified social security Conventions, the Committee considers it appropriate to examine Conventions Nos 102 and 121 together.
Part XIII (common provisions). Article 71(2) of Convention No. 102. Total of insurance contributions borne by employees. The Committee takes note of the information that benefits from pension insurance scheme concerning old age, disability and survivors’ benefits, including benefits for occupational injury or occupational disease, are financed (under the pay-as-you-go and individual capitalization schemes) by the insurance contributions borne by employees protected. These contributions constituted, in 2022, 61.1 per cent of the total of the financial resources in the pension insurance. The Committee also takes note that no contribution shall be borne by employees as to unemployment benefits. The Committee wishes to recall once more that financial resources constituted by the insurance contributions of employees protected should not exceed 50 per cent of the total resources allocated to finance benefits to the protection of employees and their wives and children, under all the social security branches accepted. In this context, the Committee once again requests the Government to indicate in a detailed and clear manner the percentage of the financial resources borne by contributions of employees allocated to social security benefits provided under each branch of the Convention accepted by Croatia, as well as the overall share of employees’ contributions considering the entirety of all accepted branches.
Article 16 of Convention No. 121. Benefit for the constant help of another person. The Committee takes note of the information that, within the framework of the social welfare system, rights to benefits related to the assistance and care of another person may be provided to persons with disabilities under the following schemes: (i) full (third degree of severity) or partial (second degree of severity) allowance for assistance and care for persons who need help and care from another person in organising their daily life due to their disability; (ii) personal disability benefits, paid to a person with high degree of disability (fourth degree of severity); and (iii) compensation paid directly to the caregiver of persons that are completely dependent or have several types of impairments of the fourth degree of severity. The Committee also takes note that the Personal Assistance Act that entered into force in July 2023, established a normative framework to guarantee personal assistance services to persons with different types of disabilities. The Committee takes due note of this information and requests the Government to provide a copy of the new legislation.
