Among all the sub-disciplines of HR, this is the one where I feel proper paper qualification truly matters – the law. In Malaysia, it’s not just the Employment Act and Labor Ordinance that govern the world of employment. There’s a whole lot more such as the Industrial Relations Act, Social Security Act and Skills Development Act. Hence, it’s not as easy as it looks.
The HR Compliance & Employment Law Specialist ensures that organizations adhere to the intricate web of employment laws, regulations and best practices. It’s a little bit like the Sherlock Holmes of HR, where you uncover hidden compliance risks, analyze complex scenarios, and provide guidance to management on all things employment-related. You investigate, resolve disputes and negotiate with employee representatives (read: union).
But it doesn’t stop there. The cool part is you will have the opportunity to shape policies and practices that promote inclusitivity, equal opportunities, and safe working environments.
By fostering compliance with employment laws, you help build a work culture that values diversity, prevents discrimination, and ensures fair treatment for all. So cool!
