KUALA LUMPUR: Efforts will continue to create a safe workplace environment despite the government abstaining from voting on an international convention on workplace harassment, says Deputy Women, Family and Community Development Minister Hannah Yeoh.
“We will have more engagements with the Human Resources Ministry. We definitely want to work towards creating a work environment free of sexual harassment and discrimination for both men and women and this requires several engagements,” she said yesterday after visiting the Aeon Co (M) Bhd (Aeon) Business Academy to observe the company’s open interview session for people with disabilities (PWD).
