Congress of Unions of Employees in the Public and Civil Services (Cuepacs) president Adnan Mat.

KOTA BARU: The Congress of Unions of Employees in the Public and Civil Services (Cuepacs) has urged the government not to forfeit the annual leave of 180,000 frontliners who have been working almost continuously since the start of the Covid-19 pandemic.

Its president Adnan Mat said that since the start of the movement control order (MCO) on March 18 last year, the frontliners could not take their annual leave in an effort to ensure that the community received the necessary healthcare.
