Provident Scheme

This is a fixed-contribution system used to cover the end-of-service incentive for non-Omani personnel. The savings program can also be used as a supplement to pension plans that have received additional coverage to obtain additional amounts upon retirement or separation in the form of a one-time or multi-year scheduled monthly benefit that increases the value of the pension or allows the insured person to retire early. The initiatives are also regarded as an investment vehicle for additional payments over the wage ceiling for the elderly, as well as a disability and death insurance policy.
