The normal working hours will already take you to 48 hrs per week. So any addional work will take u past the 48 hr mark. My company has just implemented a 7.30am-7pm (Mon-Sat) working regime without any additional compensation. Mind you im in the management bracket in an international company.

Does this new ruling contradict Malaysian Labor Laws?

Wow....this is what happened to me currently. Company issued a memo implementing similar hours like above. And I am also wondering if this is a violation of Malaysian labor laws. I know for sure this is a breach of my contract hours. Don't get me wrong, I work late too to get things done but to have us simply sit there for 6 days 10 hours/day thinking that equals productivity is really stupid....

Sadly, when I talked to some of my colleagues, they like accepted it. Feel like want to fight it but don't really know what to do besides jumping ship. I could complain to HR but it feels like it's not going to help. Being an employee in this country really suck....
