President William Ruto's administration has warned employers that they risk facing penalties should they fail to remit their monthly Social Health Authority (SHA) deductions by September 9, 2025.
In a notice dated Friday, September 5, SHA Chief Executive Officer Mercy Mwangangi underscored the significance of timely payment, stating that it was to ensure uninterrupted health coverage.
According to Mwangangi, employers who fail to remit their premiums by September 9 would face a penalty of 2 per cent on all unpaid SHA charges.
While calling for compliance, the SHA boss revealed that the 2 per cent penalty would be automatically imposed upon the expiry of the four-day deadline.
