MALAYSIA:::K'jaan timbang semak kadar elaun rumah

Kerajaan akan mempertimbang untuk menyemak semula kadar Imbuhan Tetap Perumahan (ITP) penjawat awam pada tahun hadapan, selepas kali terakhir imbuhan itu disemak pada 2005.

Menteri di Jabatan Perdana Menteri Datuk Seri Shahidan Kassim berkata kerajaan prihatin menjaga kebajikan penjawat awam dengan membuat semakan gaji dan elaun dari semasa ke semasa supaya ia sejajar dengan kos sara hidup.

Kementerian Dalam Negeri (KDN) mengusulkan agar majikan mengkreditkan terus gaji pekerja warga Indonesia mereka ke dalam akaun bank bagi mengelakkan penipuan.

Usul itu antara perkara dibincangkan antara Menteri Dalam Negeri Datuk Seri Ahmad Zahid Hamidi (gambar) semasa menerima kunjungan Menteri Ketenagakerjaan Republik Indonesia, Hanif Dhakiri di KDN di Putrajaya hari ini.

Zahid berkata pihaknya mengusulkan agar kerjasama antara bank republik itu dengan bank di Malaysia bagi memastikan peraturan baharu itu dapat dilaksanakan.

KUALA LUMPUR : THE Malaysian Trades Union Congress (MTUC) revealed that many employers, mainly from private companies and small and medium enterprises, have not been following procedures set by the Human Resources Ministry.

MTUC president Mohd Khalid Atan said some factories had been found to be using the “advertise and interview” technique to get locals to fill in work application forms.

“Employers would advertise jobs as though they want locals workers but this is actually a ploy to get foreign workers.

“Many locals would come for the interview, fill in the application forms and hand in their resumes. These employers would carry out the interview as normal but would never offer them the jobs.”
