ISSA-ILO Guidelines on Actuarial Work for Social Security
The ISSA-ILO Guidelines on Actuarial Work for Social Security are written for actuaries and other social security professionals undertaking actuarial work for social security schemes, as well as social security institutions, policy-makers and other stakeholders overseeing or reviewing actuarial work. The objectives of these Guidelines are to provide guidance to these different stakeholders in their work as it relates to the planning, management, financing and provision of social security benefits. The guidelines are structured to provide a list of issues to consider and recommendations in the carrying out of these duties. These duties will vary according to the stakeholder concerned and may include performing actuarial calculations, providing or formulating policy advice, supervision, reporting, management and communication.
