Even if they don't pay EPF, you can always self contribute. As for SOCSO, the important thing is you need to have a job that has a few years which contribute it so you are eligible for benefits in the future. So just take the higher offer and has the discipline to self contribute the EPF amount. Unless your 1 year EPF > 60K because the max for self contribution is limited to 60K.
