My dear friends,

Here is most of what you need to know about the الصندوق الوطني للضمان الاجتماعي in Arabic (National Social Security Fund  or Caisse Nationale de Sécurité Sociale) in Lebanon.

These are the applicable laws. Whenever you have doubts, always ask. No one will care for your rights more than you do.

Best regards!

Place: Dik El Mehdi
Situation: Eye-witnessed roadworks that closed the road without notice. What a surprise!
Action: Got out of the car, angry, looking around if there was anyone. Found a group of workers. Told them I needed to cross. One of them came, apologizing for the mess, asked me to go back inside the car because it was going to get dusty and started clearing the road by taking the broken fragment to the sides. Dusty, but better than nothing!
Conclusion: During roadworks, it would be nice to notice that roads need to stay cleared for cars and to put a sign especially when there is no other way out.

Eyewitness has a new story for you today!

Place: Badaro 43, next to the NSSF Center
Situation: While I was working, I heard a lot of honking from a six wheels truck. The sound was horrible, a non-stop honk for 15 minutes. The truck was trying to get to the construction site nearby but there was a police car double parked obstructing the way. This created a huge traffic.
Action: I took few pictures of the vehicle and went downstairs to double-check the plate number. Then dialed 1744 (specialized in police complaints) and told them the situation. They took my name. Called me back after 15 minutes saying that they sent somebody over but the guy apparently had already left. They were very nice to me, and respectful. In the end, I told them that they had the car plate number with the time and some pictures. They promised that he will be punished.
Conclusion: Make sure to contact the person who will fix the situation. You will find in our public services departments people who want the major problems such as corruption, disrespect to the law we are facing everyday fixed…and they need us as citizens to help them and push in the right direction.

Thank you for your contribution!
