KUALA LUMPUR: The Home Ministry (KDN) is working to facilitate the process of employers hiring foreign workers through the Immigration Department Workforce Recalibration programme, said its minister Datuk Seri Hamzah Zainudin (pic) on Thursday (Dec 2) night.

He said the matter was brought to the Cabinet to request that the Immigration Department be given the authority to approve 70 per cent of the total applications by the employers and the full approval is only given after receiving confirmation from the Human Resource Ministry (MOHR).
