Govt told of employers abusing Wage Subsidy Programme

KUALA LUMPUR: The government has been informed that there are employers who did not channel the money provided under the Prihatin Rakyat Economic Stimulus Package’s (Prihatin) Wage Subsidy Programme to their workers, hence violating the conditions set.

Finance Minister Tengku Datuk Seri Zafrul Aziz said the aid should not have been abused and employers should have been more responsible instead of exploiting and mistreating their workers.
