The Malta Social Security System as we know it nowadays was formed in 1998. The Malta Commissioner of Inland Revenue is responsible for the collection and enforcement of the social security contributions. The Maltese Social Security System covers residents aged 18 or more, employees and employers in Malta, and students in certain work-study programs. Both employers and employees contribute 10% of their gross salary to the social security system. Moreover, sick leave benefits are paid to employees and 13 weeks of fully paid maternity leave are granted by employers to their employees.
