30th October 2020. Thank you Malindo Air for the best memories. Being the only Punjabi female in aircraft engineering in Malaysia, so close to getting my license. It meant alot. 5 years 4 months were wonderful. Also being pregnant to the challenging breastfeeding journey. Haha. pic.twitter.com/zC20XUM3Ao

What is the government doing?

Minister of Human Resources Saravanan Murugun said the Labor Department had discussed with the management of Malindo Air, the Department of Industrial Relations (JPP), and the Social Security Organization (Socso) to discuss issues on compliance with labor laws and welfare of the workers.

As of 2 November 2020, JPP has received a total of 31 cases of representation of work rehabilitation under section 20 of Act 177 involving former Malindo Air employees.

24 cases were successfully resolved through peace talks while the remaining seven cases are still in negotiation process.

What’s next?

Employees who feel that their termination of service is being done unfairly and without reasonable grounds have the right to file a representation of work rehabilitation under Section 20 of the Industrial Relations Act 1967.

Malindo Air workers who were laid off could also seek Employment Allowance (EMP) assistance for up to six months under the Employment Insurance System (SIP).

Payment of allowances will be made for between 30% and 80% of their last drawn salary under a RM4,000 salary limit.

Saravanan also encouraged those affected to register with the MYFutureJobs Portal to help them generate temporary income and stay afloat while looking for new permanent jobs.
