Reports by MARTIN CARVALHO, RAHIMY RAHIM and TARRENCE TAN

EMPLOYERS who fail to ensure the safety and health of their workers are expected to face stiffer punishments under the proposed amendments to the Occupational Safety and Health Act 1994.

This comes after the Dewan Rakyat passed the Occupational Safety and Health (Amendment) Act 2020 yesterday, paving the way for better protection and safety for workers.
