PUTRAJAYA: The Human Resources Ministry will be looking into a new method to implement the minimum wage to ensure the welfare of all workers in the country is protected, said its Minister V. Sivakumar.
In describing the monthly minimum wage of RM1,500 as relatively low, he said employers must ensure the wages of employees match their skills and knowledge.
The minimum wage order came into effect on May 1, 2022, with a monthly minimum wage of RM1,500 for all sectors, regardless of region, for employers with five or more employees. Sivakumar said the RM1mil allocation for MTUC and Cuepacs will help both bodies to fight for workers' rights in this country.
