Pikom's Woon Thai Hai says some disparity is expected, but the gap should not be widening. pikom woonthaihai

PETALING JAYA: An expert today raised concerns over the wages of entry-level graduates in the ICT or information and communications technology industry, warning of a possible brain drain to countries with higher salaries if the matter is not addressed.

He warned that if entry-level graduates are not adequately compensated, this could result in a brain drain to countries such as Singapore and Australia. He suggested that companies provide increments for workers once they are no longer at the entry level, in terms of money, training and support. Nonetheless, 2019 is set to be an encouraging year for the ICT industry, according to Pikom’s annual report.

During his presentation, Woon, who is also the organising chair of the research and publication committee, said salaries in the ICT industry grew at its slowest pace this decade. He also attributed the drop in growth of both salaries and job openings last year to the recalibration of the economy following the change of government, which he said had made employers more cautious.
