The Employment Act of 1955 (also known as "EA 1955") governs the procedures that are carried out in the "Court" known as the Labour Court.
The Director-General of Labour (abbreviated as DGL) is authorised by the Employment Act of 1955 (EA 1955) to consider matters relating to pay when a complaint is referred; hence, the 'Labour Court' was established.
According to Section 69 of the Employment Act of 1955, the DGL has the authority to inquire into and consider cases relating only to wage disputes that employees bring forward.
It is essential to keep in mind that the Labour Court can only consider cases brought forward by workers who are included in the First Schedule of the Employment Act of 1955.
These workers include employees whose salaries do not exceed RM2,000 and manual workers.
The DGL was also granted the authority by the EA 1955 to hear complaints concerning employees whose monthly wages do not exceed RM5,000.
This power was granted to the DGL under s 69B of the existing EA 1955.
Disputes about the non-payment of salary and/or non-payment of termination benefits are among the most typical types of cases that are heard in the Labour Court.
《1955年劳工法令》规定了劳工法庭所执行的程序。
1955年劳工法令》授权劳工部总监在接到雇员提交投诉时，审查与薪酬有关的事项；因而设立了 "劳工法庭"。
根据《1955年劳工法令》第69条，劳工部总监只是有权调查和审议与雇员提出的工资纠纷有关的案件。
必须牢记的是，劳工法庭只能审理《1955年劳工法令》附表一中所列的雇员所提出的案件。
这些雇员包括工资不超过2,000令吉的雇员和体力劳动者。
然而，《1955年劳工法令》还授予总监权力，以审理有关月工资不超过5000令吉的雇员的投诉。
这项权力是根据《1955年劳工法令》第69B条授予总监的。
有关不支付工资和/或不支付解雇福利的纠纷是劳工法庭经常审理的典型案件之一。
1. Some of the most significant amendments suggested to the Employment Act 1955 as a result of the Employment (Amendment) Bill 2021 ("the Bill") include the Deletion of Sections 69B, 69C, 69D, and 69E
Section 69B | Additional powers of the Director-General to inquire into complaints. |
Section 69C | Claims for Indemnity for Termination of Contract Without Notice |
Section 69D | Order of Director-General may be in writing |
Section 69E | Penalty for Offence |
2. As a direct result of the deletion of section 69B, sections 69C, 69D, and 69E that corresponded to it was also deleted.
3. As a result of the deletion of sections 69B, 69c, 69D, and 69E of the Employment Act 1955, many people believe that in the future, only employees listed in the First Schedule of the Employment Act 1955 will be eligible to complain to the Labor Department in the event of a wage dispute and that employees whose salary exceeds RM2,000 will no longer be eligible to do so.
4. However, according to the Ministry of Human Resources, the government will make subsequent amendments to the First Schedule of Act 265 through an order that will be issued by the Minister of Human Resources in accordance with the powers conferred by Section 2(2) of Act 265.
5. This will be done in order to ensure that all salaried persons in the country have access to the minimum benefits and protections that are outlined in Act 265.

1. 2021年劳工(修正)法案对1955年劳工法令提出的一些重要修正，包括删除第69B、69c、69D和69E条 👉 第69B条 – 总监对投诉进行调查的额外权力 👉 第69C条 - 对未通知而终止合同的赔偿要求 👉 第69D条 – 总监的命令可以是书面形式 👉 第69E条 – 罪行的处罚 2. 因为第69B条的删除，相应的第69C、69D和69E条也被删除。
3. 针对第69B、69c、69D和69E条的删除，很多人都这么认为，日后只有在1955年劳工法令第一附表陈述的雇员，面对工资纠纷时，才有资格到劳工部投诉，而薪水超过2千令吉的雇员将不再享有此资格。
4. 然而，根据人力资源部的说法，政府将通过人力资源部长根据第265号法案第2(2)款所授予颁布指令的权力，对第265号法案的第一附表进行后续修订。
5. 这是为了使全国的所有受薪人士都能获得第265号法案规定的最低福利和保护措施。
