STAFF REPORTER
The Government Institutions Pension Fund (GIPF) is excited to participate in the upcoming Ongwediva Annual Trade Fair (OATF) taking place from 23 to 31 August.



The fund will offer a wide range of services to its active members, pensioners, spousal and children beneficiaries, such as biometric enrolment and verification, updates on membership status, pension benefits, claim procedures, submission, and claim status.

Members may acquire benefit and income statement printouts and receive advice on preparing for retirement and other general queries.



The fund is partnering with the Ondangwa Private Hospital and will provide wellness screenings to GIPF pensioners and visitors to the GIPF stand. The wellness screening services shall include general medical screenings for vitals such as blood pressure readings, body mass index calculations, cholesterol testing, prostate screening (rapid tests), chronic medication compliance, glucose testing and more.



Closer to members



The fund will be joined by other partners such as Kuleni Financial Services, the Public Service Medical Aid Scheme (PSEMAS), and the Namibia Revenue Agency (NamRA). These partners will provide pension-related services pertaining to benefits, medical aid and issues related to taxes.



In addition to the additional services to be provided during the OATF, the fund is pleased to inform its members that it will be hosting pre-retirement workshops in Omuthiya on 21 August, Oshakati and in Ongwediva on the 28 and 29 August, respectively. These pre-retirement workshops are aimed at members between the ages of 50 and 59.



Members wishing to visit the GIPF at the OATF can find the fund and its trade fair partners in a clearly branded marquee tent outside the Queens Hall. “The GIPF’s values of service excellence and care drive the fund to ensure that we bring our services closer to our members," said Edwin Tjiramba, general manager for marketing and stakeholder engagement.
