INTRODUCTION
Malaysia’s HR compliance landscape is undergoing major changes, driven by the Sabah Labour Ordinance (SLO) amendments (effective May 1, 2025) and stricter enforcement of employment contract stamping under the Stamp Act 1949 from January 2025.
These developments signal stronger regulatory enforcement, enhanced employee protection, and greater employer accountability. Non-compliance now carries significant risks, including penalties of up to RM50,000 per offence and legal issues from improperly executed contracts.
This 2-day program equips HR professionals and business leaders with a complete compliance framework— covering both labour law requirements and contract enforceability—ensuring operational compliance and organizational protection.
