The National Union of Flight Attendants Malaysia has reportedly urged the Department of Islamic Development Malaysia to look into the handling of alcohol by Muslim cabin crew. — AFP picKUALA LUMPUR, March 10 — The National Union of Flight Attendants Malaysia has reportedly urged the Department of Islamic Development Malaysia to also look into the handling of alcohol by Muslim cabin crew.
“There may be a need for a new policy to be implemented to find ways to address how Muslim workers handle alcohol because it is part of their duties.“Previously, an employee was reprimanded for refusing to serve drinks to customers,” Nufam was quoted saying. Responding to a question from Parti Amanah Negara’s Pulai MP Suhaizan Kayat, Zulkifli said Jakim welcomes public suggestions to address the issue of Muslims handling alcoholic beverages in the workplace.Zulkifli also said that Jakim wishes to help Muslim workers intending to exit workplaces that sell alcohol, such as by providing these workers temporary financial assistance through zakat centres and state religious councils until they could be employed elsewhere.
“Therefore, we believe that if Jakim wants to focus on overseeing these new regulations or simplifying policies and making new changes, let it be seen as fair to all Muslim workers, not just focused on specific industries,” it said.
