In tight spot after big pay cut Pix for representational purpose only.
PETALING JAYA: Under the Code of Conduct for Industrial Harmony, salary cut is a strategy with the objective to create a win-win situation for employer and employee.
But to the employees, that is an irony, especially for those whose income has dropped so low that it is no longer possible to see their family through the month.
To be fair, businesses are not swimming in excess cash either. By adopting pay cuts, they will be able to carry on a little longer, hopefully to a point where the economy recovers and full operations can resume, Malaysian Employers Federation (MEF) president Datuk Dr Syed Hussain Husman told
PETALING JAYA: Unions say workers are ready to return if more economic sectors gradually reopen, provided that the herd immunity among workers has been achieved and tight standard operating procedures are practised at workplaces.
Malaysian Trades Union Congress deputy president Mohd Effendy Abdul Ghani said as workers wanted to keep their jobs, there was the worry that some employers might not follow the SOP once given the green light to operate.
“The government has announced the National Recovery Plan, which is to partially open once the number of cases has gone down. We want industries to reopen but what we want more is for the government to completely focus and intensify the vaccination of workers from all sectors.
