Increase in minimum wage could have negative impact on security industry, says association

KUALA LUMPUR: An increase of the minimum wage to RM1,500 could have a serious negative impact on the security industry, says the Security Industry Association of Malaysia (PIKM).

Its president Datuk Seri Ramli Yusuff said increasing the minimum wage to RM1,500 should not be carried out yet as the government and its agencies are not ready to increase the price of services of security guards.
