Why public servants have less than a month to update pension records

The Kenyan government has instructed all public servants to update their pension records with the Public Service Superannuation Fund (PSSF) by August 14, 2026, as part of efforts to modernize pension administration. This directive applies to over half a million public sector workers, including teachers, disciplined services personnel, and county government employees. The initiative involves using a digital platform called the Pension Administration System (PAS) to streamline processes such as retirement benefit payments, data accuracy, and remote access to pension information. Employers are encouraged to submit payroll and contribution data electronically through a dedicated portal. Officials emphasize that this reform aims to enhance transparency, efficiency, and accessibility in pension services while restoring dignity to retirees.
