There is a conscious effort to increase coverage of programs particularly in the social insurance and social welfare pillars. The SSS now has programs that extend membership to those that work in the public sector. The Kaltas-Collect program allows job-orders, who doesn’t have employee-employer relationship with the LGU, access to social security services, pensions, and other employment benefits. They also have the AlkanSSSya program which recognizes the informal sector as an economic contributor and employment generator, deeming it necessary to extend social security coverage to this sector. DSWD is also considering extending its services beyond targeted programs and to move to universal coverage.125 They have extended the 4Ps beyond just the indigent and poor targeted under the NHTS-PR. They now have the MCCT which is a program specifically made for Indigenous Peoples, Homeless Street Families, and Families in Need of Special Protection. 126 This move by the DSWD is affirmed by General Comment 19127 and the principle of universal social protection. Despite good availability of programs, the discussions revealed that issues on accessibility hinder the full realization of the right to social security. The implementation of national government initiatives happens at the local level and this is where issues take place as the initiatives are not integrated in the local process. 128 There is inconsistency among LGUs in the implementation of programs as some provinces and municipalities execute social protection programs, while some do not.129 125 Annex 4.
