Economic History

Thailand

Thailand's "social safety net" is considered inadequate by industrialized-country standards . The social security system consists of two systems . The Workmen's Compensation Act of 1994 requires employers with ten or more employees to contribute yearly 0.2-1.0 percent of the employee's earnings to the Workmen's Compensation Fund . The Fund provides benefits to employees who are injured, sick, disabled or die from work-related injury . The Social Security Act has been in effect since 1990 . This Act covers enterprises with ten or more employees . Contributions to the Social Security Fund from the government, the employer, and the employee are mandated . The Social Security Fund provides compensation to insured workers under six categories: injury or sickness, child delivery, crippling injury, death, child welfare, and old age . In the first four categories, each party contributes 1.5 percent of the wages of the insured . For child welfare and old age cases, three percent is contributed. (references)
