National Insurance adjustments to the insurable wage, pensions and grants ensures that workers can insure more of their income and that Benefits offered remain relevant and adequately meet the needs of Bahamians by staying in line with inflation. This adjustment (increase) in the insurable wage ceiling is based on the change in the retail price index over the two previous calendar years plus 2%. See the new NIB Rate Sheet, effective July 2024, which outlines the increases to pensions, grants and the increase in the insurable wage ceiling.

As of March 2, 2009, all claims submitted for short-term benefits by employed persons (i.e., persons who have bosses) must be accompanied by an Employers Certification form (Med 4). The new Med 4 form is a single- sheet addition to the Med 1, Med 1A and Med 2 forms. It requires the employer to certify that an employee is/was/will be off from work for the period stated.

The National Insurance Board’s (NIB) primary objective, as mandated in the National Insurance Act, continues to be providing income-replacement for workers when they are unable to work. To deliver on this income-replacement promise to workers of The Bahamas, NIB collects contributions from self-employed persons and from employers on behalf of employees.
