WHY SHOULD YOU ATTEND
Because previously not all of the provisions of the Employment Act 1955 apply directly to
Sabah and Sarawak, these ordinances apply broadly similar provisions to these States of
Malaysia. The ordinances cover many manual workers (including domestic servants)
employed under a contract of service and allow the Minister to make rules regarding their
employment and repatriation.
Failure to comply the Labour Ordinance Sabah may result organization to suffer heavy
penalty leading to heavy fine or imprisonment or both, which could be totally unnecessary
and can be avoided. This program will benefit participants to understand and apply the
labour law, manage discipline better leading to higher productivity, understanding the
mutual benefit of the rights of employer /employee, and be able to motivate employees.
