Employers not to ignore labour requirements despite relaxation plan

Employers should not ignore aspects related to labour standards eventhough relaxations are granted under the Foreign Worker Employment Relaxation Plan to expedite approval of quotas for foreign workers.

“Aspects related to labour standards should not be ignored even though the process will be monitored by the Department of Labour in Peninsular Malaysia and the Malaysian Immigration Department , which will be six to seven months after the quota approval date,“ he said in a statement today. Sivakumar also urged employers to apply for a quota for foreign workers under the plan to relax the employment of foreign workers based on actual need.

He also urged employers to ensure that the documents to support the quota application are authentic as there were instances of fraud and false document submissions.
