MITI extends flexibility for manufacturing labor rules
Suspension of the 80:20 employment ratio continues until MTLM launches in 2025 to enhance workforce competitiveness.
The Ministry of Investment, Trade and Industry (MITI) has announced the continued suspension of the 80:20 employment ratio requirement in the manufacturing sector until the full implementation of the Multi-Tiered Levy Mechanism (MTLM).
The 80:20 policy mandates that 80% of employees be local workers and 20% foreign workers.
The MTLM aims to reduce reliance on foreign labor by incentivizing employers to hire more local workers.
MITI emphasizes that this suspension offers industries greater flexibility in managing labor needs without compromising the government’s goal of decreasing dependence on foreign workers.
The ministry also highlights its commitment to enhancing the skills of the local workforce to ensure competitiveness in a high-tech global economy.
The MTLM is scheduled for implementation in early 2025, replacing the 80:20 policy in the manufacturing sector.
Levies collected through MTLM will be reinvested into the industry to promote automation, increase productivity, and strengthen Malaysia’s global competitiveness.
