PETALING JAYA: A hybrid model of on-site and remote working should be continued in light of the fast-spreading Omicron variant of Covid-19, says the Malaysian Employers Federation (MEF).

The MEF is urging employers not to rush in asking their employees to return to the workplace full-time as it may increase the risk of infection.“However feasible it is , we advise employers to implement the hybrid approach so as to reduce risks of infection.

As for organisations that are unable to implement WFH, he said employers should look into rearranging the workplace to allow sufficient physical distancing between workers.Noting that it can be a challenge for small and medium enterprises to implement WFH arrangements with their limited workforce and resources, SME Association of Malaysia national president Ding Hong Sing said they will continue to assess the situation and plan accordingly.

Covid-19 Omicron variant cases have increased since it was first detected in the country, and was at 62 cases as of Dec 25, 2021. About 93.6% of the 203 respondent companies implemented a combination of WFH together with work from office arrangements in response to the pandemic.
