Honduran Institute of Social Security Sample Clauses

Honduran Institute of Social Security. (IHSS) The Honduran Institute of Social Security is an autonomous entity, with legal personality and its own assets, independent of the national tax authority. Since its creation, it has been responsible for guiding, directing, providing and administering social security services to the working population of Honduras. Under the Constitution of the Republic, the Government, employers and workers are obliged to contribute to the funding, improvement and expansion of the social security system. Social security for the working class in Honduras primarily rests on the coverage offered by the IHSS, hence its major influence on governance in health and social security matters. Outside the country’s main cities (Tegucigalpa, San Xxxxx Sula, Ceiba and Puerto Xxxxxx) where the largest forest operators are located, the IHSS is not represented in the other population centres of the country, and even less so in rural areas, where most forest operators work.
