Both employee and employer contribute according to the SSS contribution schedule, either monthly or quarterly. The employee s contribution is deducted from the wage remittance to El Greco. The employer s contribution, presently at USD20.00 a month for each seafarer, is sent to El Greco, which then remits the amounts to SSS and sends receipts to the employer. The employer may send SSS contributions together with family allotment each month 7. Performance Monitoring As part of our service, we ask the master of a vessel to send El Greco regular reports on each seafarer we provide.
Evaluation is on performance, competence and behavior.
Reports, which should be sent each quarter, aid us in assessing each seafarer and selecting your crews. El Greco ensures the handling of these claims are treated with great sensitivity and efficiency. A minor crew incident can be prevented from becoming a major one by dealing with it immediately. El Greco may coordinate with the local government agencies concerned and their foreign counterparts and immediately advise the principal. For this service to be of mutual benefit, it is imperative to keep El Greco informed before a master or principals take any drastic action.
