The ISSA is developing an Administrative Database designed to complement the International Social Security Association’s unique online Country Profiles on social security. It will provide key institutional data on social security administrations around the world, including data such as the number of staff, offices, and administrative system highlights.
Unique global data source
The database will cover administrative information in four main areas of importance to our members: Governance and Organizational Structure, Operations, Information and Communication Technology and Communication.
The Administrative Database will be built and updated through surveys, and made accessible for ISSA Members.
