Unions: Hurry up with labour amendments in Sabah, Sarawak

Kota Kinabalu: The Labour Law Reform Coalition (LLRC) and Sabah MTUC (Malaysian Trades Union Congress) has called on the federal and state governments to amend the Sabah and Sarawak labour ordinances to be on par with the amendments under the Employment Act enjoyed by workers in Peninsular Malaysia since Jan 1, 2023.

LLRC chairman Mohd Jafar Abdul Majid said yesterday that elected representatives should take immediate action to update the ordinances as they should not be delayed for too long.
