PETALING JAYA: Besides reducing the recruitment fees for Indonesian domestic workers, the Malaysian government should also improve the procurement process and tackle the issue of illegal agents, say employment agencies.
They argue that the prominence of illegal agents as well as a sub-par online recruitment means that desperate employers have had to look for faster ways to get their helpers.
The current procurement process for Indonesian domestic workers also see desperate employers paying more than RM15,000 to get their helpers as soon as possible. A seamless and efficient digital procurement system, said Zarina, could act as a solution to the matter as well as benefit employers. “The sourcing and processing costs for the workers, among others, should not cost more than RM10,000,” he said.
