INTRODUCTION
There have been loud demands from the public to make changes to the current Employment Act 1955 (“Act”) due to concerns that the current law is not comprehensive to provide sufficient protection to employees. As of October 2018, the Ministry of Human Resources has finally released a list of proposed amendments to the current law. According to Human Resource Minister, YB Kulasegaran, the law is expected to pass in the first quarter of 2019. This is part of the ministry effort to increase the standard of labour practices in Malaysia. He is also warning employers that there will be stiffer penalties for employers that clout the law. More importantly, is that once the amendments passed; it will have a significant bearing on employers.
