Bosses can’t cut pay, force workers to take annual leave

PETALING JAYA: Employers are not allowed to cut the pay, force employees to take annual leave or dismiss workers without following terms and conditions in the employment contract during the movement control order (MCO) period, says the Human Resources Ministry.

“All salaries and allowances must be paid during the period except for certain allowances, such as transport allowance, that are not used,” said the ministry.
