KUALA LUMPUR, Sept 15 ― Malaysia has taken action against 400 companies so far this year for violating labour laws, state news agency Bernama reported, citing Human Resources Minister V. Sivakumar.
The ministry's labour department issued fines totalling RM2.17 million against 272 employers, while the courts fined 128 employers a combined RM242,000, Bernama cited Sivakumar as saying on Thursday.The minister did not name the companies, nor did he give details of the labour offences. Malaysia is a key link in the global supply chain, manufacturing everything from palm oil to medical gloves and semiconductor chips.
Malaysian companies have faced US bans in recent years over allegations of abuses against migrant workers, who are employed widely in the country's manufacturing and plantation industries. The allegations of forced labour include debt bondage, excessive working hours, retention of passports and unhygienic dormitories.
