The Labour Ordinances of Sabah and Sarawak
are distinct from the Employment Act 1955
(Peninsular Malaysia) and have recently
undergone key amendments to align more
closely with national employment standards.
These changes have significant implications for
employers operating in East Malaysia,
particularly in terms of working hours, employee
benefits, contract terms, and statutory
compliances. This webinar is designed to provide
HR professionals, business owners, and
compliance officers with a clear understanding
of the latest updates to the Sabah Labour
Ordinance (Cap. 67) and Sarawak Labour
Ordinance (Cap. 76). It will highlight the key
differences from the Employment Act, discuss
how these changes affect day-to-day HR
operations, and provide practical guidance to
ensure compliance.
