00:00A PKR MP has urged the government and the Human Resources Ministry not to overlook the
00:08welfare of the informal workers and those on low-wage contracts following the pay hike
00:13for civil servants.
00:15While he welcomed the wage increase for government employees, Pasir Gudang MP Hasan Karim said
00:21there are non-civil servants such as cleaners, security guards and gardeners working in schools,
00:26hospitals and government clinics on contracts.
00:30In a Facebook post today, he said informal workers who are spread across the country
00:34are often exploited by their employers and contractors and need government intervention
00:39to protect their welfare.
00:41Hasan said they face several challenges, including low pay ladders, long working hours and a
00:47lack of EPF and SOXO contributions, adding that they also suffer from job insecurity
00:52and are often denied a minimum wage.
00:56Yesterday, Prime Minister Anwar Ibrahim announced that a salary increase of between 7% and 15%
01:02will come into effect from December 1st under the new public service remuneration system.
01:08Civil servants in top management will receive a 7% wage hike, while those categorized as
01:13implementers, managers and professionals will see a 15% pay increase.
