Companies need education on anti-human trafficking


Better deal: The electronics industry in Malaysia has a much higher standard when it comes to foreign labour.

GEORGE TOWN: Educating companies on the dos and don’ts of treating foreign workers could help improve Malaysia’s ranking in the US State Department’s annual Trafficking in Persons Report, says Malaysia Semiconductor Industry Association president Datuk Seri Wong Siew Hai.

Commenting on the fact that Malaysia had been placed on the lowest tier for the second year in a row, Wong said different industries handled issues in a different manner, but it was clear that Malaysia had to comply with the requirements set in the report.
