Robinsons offers more rent-free spaces to SSS

MANILA, Philippines — State-run Social Security Service (SSS) said its members can soon access the state fund’s services through more Lingkod Pinoy Centers to be established in 12 future malls of Robinsons Land Corp.

SSS president and chief executive officer Emmanuel Dooc and Robinsons Land president Frederick Go signed recently a supplemental agreement, which provides the SSS additional rent-free spaces in malls to be constructed by RLC under its pipeline.

“We are grateful to RLC for their initiative to help SSS in providing a more convenient place where members can transact with SSS. Robinsons Malls is the first mall to offer rent-free spaces to front-line government agencies such as SSS through its Lingkod Pinoy Center,” Dooc said.

According to Dooc, the new agreement will be effective until 2020. He said the location and timeline of the new SSS offices would depend on the development plans of RLC.

Dooc said this agreement would provide SSS a dozen more satellite offices in Robinsons Malls. At present, there are 31 SSS satellite offices located at Robinsons Malls nationwide.

The partnership between Robinsons Malls and SSS started in April 2012.

“It is gratifying to know that we are in the radar screen. Whenever (RLC) puts up new commercial buildings, SSS is considered,” the SSS chief said.

Go, for his part, said the agreement represents the continuous commitment of the company to provide rent-free spaces for the SSS and help the pension fund cater to the growing needs of its members.
