I have often wondered if they do. They receive alot of 'benefit in kind' BIK. Company Car+Fuel, Official accomadation inc all bills paid for. Fed and Watered inc the wife most days.
then i think if they have not paid enough NI or Tax, and they have to give up circuit work for health or old age will they receive a state pension?

are you in the UK Bromac? (are we related --ha ha )
if they are employed by the watchtower society---how many hours do they work?----are their employers exempted from then minimum hourly rate LAWS ?
if they dont pay NI contributions--they could fall back on social security---or pension credit if over--62 (?) now----( all UK residents qualify--regardless of NI contributions )
----which means this evil system which they await the destruction thereof---will keep them.
