The GLIP should be a minimum of three times the annual total emolument of the employees. Similarly, Section 5.5 of the Revised Guidelines on GLIP for Employees provide that the employer shall display a copy of the GLIP certificate in a conspicuous place within its premises, for the information of the employees and as evidence of having taken such policy. 

Employers that have not displayed a copy of the GLIP certificate within their premises are advised to do so on or before 31 July, 2021. Failure to provide GLIP is a violation of Section 4(5) of the Pension Reform Act (PRA) 2014.
