A proposal to allow Bahraini housewives to voluntarily join the national social insurance system is set for debate during Parliament session on Tuesday.
The amended draft law, spearheaded by Strategic Thinking Bloc member Dr Mariam Al Dhaen, would add a new chapter to the Social Insurance Law Decree-Law No 24 of 1976, enabling housewives to subscribe to social insurance on an optional basis by paying contributions according to a chosen income bracket .
