An employee of a tourism attraction who wished to be known only as Chew, said she had just been informed by her management executive that she would have to take unpaid leave."I believe this is unfair as I don't want to be off and am not quarantined.
"It's unfair as we did not expect this and it will definitely cause friction and loss of faith in our employer," she said. Its director Warren Tan said he would be paying them, but they would have to work from home during the period of the movement control order."I do understand that some companies are looking into that option as the whole company will suffer eventually and there needs to be give and take.
Complain to the nearest LABOUR OFFICE if employers unilaterally refuse to pay wages or reduce wages. If workers are unionised then complain to the union. If employers dismiss workers complain to the nearest Industrial Relations Department, Ministry of HR. It's violation of law.
Suggestion How about the higher management / BOD take the unpaid leaves & the money goes to cover staff salary during this period?
RM600 still helps 😢
Should I say good job PN government or thanks for their help RM600 for who take unpaid leave? This help will encourage company force their staff take unpaid leave and then can claim RM600 from government.
If they contributed to eis, n salary more than 4k, n forced to take unpaid leave, can they apply for gov asst of rm600?
