The GEPF is pleased to announce that a 25% increase in funeral benefits for members has been gazetted on 2 May 2024.
The increase is effective from 1 April 2024 and will be applied retrospectively. All deaths occurring from 1 April 2024 will be eligible for the enhanced benefits. Dependents whose loved ones passed away from this date onward and have already received a payment will also be eligible for a top up to the benefit previously paid.
