It was considered that the employers definitely had the
responsibility of providing sickness benefit to the employees. About half
(43.1%) of the respondents considered that it was the employers' total
responsibility while about another half (47.2%) considered that it was part
of the employers' responsibility. Similarly, retirement benefit was
considered to be the employers' responsibility. Even more employees considered
it was the employers' total responsibility. Housing and life insurance
were considered to be mainly the responsibility of the employees.
