Case study: Zambia
Why developing a new legislative framework?
On-going reforms on C-SP (Pensions, EI, Health etc.)
Absence of legislative framework for NC-SP
Fragmented laws and gaps in the legislative and regulatory framework
Why developing a singular legislative framework? Enhanced coherence in policy and financing
Strengthened coordination across schemes (critical for extension of coverage)
Reduced administrative costs
Reduced transaction costs for both workers and employers
Overall objective => creating enabling environment for effective delivery of social protection

Challenges
• Fragmented social protection/security legislation
• Gaps in legislation and/or over-lapping
• Finding the right balance between Laws and Regulations to guarantee rights but leaving flexibility for ease of future adjustments
• Alignment of Government and Social Partners objectives
– Divergent views within Government, Social Security institutions, social partners
• => Highlight importance of effective social dialogue and evidence to inform reforms
