SDP to introduce new minimum wage across its ops


SDP group managing director Mohamad Helmy Othman Basha said the group’s last wage rate adjustment was in May 2020, following a government decision to raise the minimum wage for workers in municipal council areas to RM1,200 a month and RM1,100 for those in non-municipal council areas.
