Bosses seek ‘Off’ switch

PETALING JAYA: Following the implementation of the amendments to the Occupational Safety and Health Act , employers suggest establishing a Stop Work Policy to ensure only competent personnel perform tasks as stipulated in relevant schedules.

“If validated, necessary action should be taken to mitigate the risks to an acceptable level before resuming work,” he said. “Employers should formulate an Occupational Safety and Health policy and disseminate it to all stakeholders,” he said, adding the establishment of safety and health committees is important for a company with 40 or more employees.

Meanwhile, the Small and Medium Enterprises Association of Malaysia advocated for a transition to a “educate and correct” approach, rather than a strict enforcement strategy, in relation to OSHA. “The ministry should adopt a method that guides companies to rectify their actions instead of resorting to immediate punitive measures,” Ng said.“Safety and health incidents in employees’ homes during remote work arrangements could hold employers accountable.

“Some SMEs have yet to adopt the latest safety and health measures, so government support is critical.
