FMM President: We thank the government for recognising the importance and complementary role that foreign workers play in supporting economic recovery. theSun theSundaily foreignworkers importance hiring rules
: The Federation of Malaysian Manufacturers welcomes the government’s announcement to ease the hiring rules for foreign workers and the extension of the recalibration programme under the Illegal Immigrant Recalibration Plan 2.0 .
“We thank the government for recognising the importance and complementary role that foreign workers play in supporting economic recovery, especially during this period of prolonged uncertainty with 2023 forecast to be a tough year as global growth is expected to slow down, global inflation to remain elevated and trade volume to contract,” he said.
He said the IIRP 2.0 should also cater for illegal workers wanting to return to their home country without any blacklisting as well as those seeking to be legalised and rehired. Soh said the entire process should also be conducted online, including introducing flexibility on payment modes, which would allow for a larger number of workers to be processed via a single submission as there are currently payment limits imposed for each debit/credit card payment.
