My company is hiring 2 people and the salary slip they showed shows a very high pay. Now, I know from another mutual friend in the previous company that these 2 guys are working from that their salary is probably 35% less. I actually called up KWSP / EPF to find out based on their EPF number and SOCSO number however they refused to let my HR team get the previous information about this. How can I make a report to get KWSP / EPF to give me historical information on their previous salary?

I was thinking of asking my friend who works in an MNC to try submit their documents saying that he wants to hire them and that he wants to do a background check. Since he works in a well established MNC, I was wondering if KWSP / EPF will disclose this information. Thank you.

I don't think you understand where I am coming from but I don't blame you. There is a budget for every company. Now, let's say you in charge of the hiring process and you have a budget, you will need to know how to optimize your budget as well. You have to be smart. Of course it is very easy for anyone and everyone to say "just hire and fire" and these are the people who don't know how tough it can be with the time and process involved. At the same time, I don't see anything wrong with companies disclosing how much someone earns. Why should people be afraid? If they are really as good as what they say they are, any company would pay them a good price.

Have you ever asked yourself why people fake their pay slips to begin with? I am sure you have not and you really need to think hard about this question.

You don't even seem to understand what this whole post and argument is about. It's disgusting to see people like you post a reply just to make yourself seem smart when you lack a whole lot of intelligence. It's sad but true.

it's totally fine for a company to ask from the candidate and the candidate decided to give

but it's totally ILLEGAL to through it the backdoor way. you can't just go around and snooping on others without the person's consent

CONSENT is the key here. TS doesn't want to get the CONSENT from the candidate, instead he prefers to go about it the ILLEGAL ways

There is no engagement screening form which exists. You can't just make up stuff in your head. Now, the question I asked is simple. It seems you have a hard time understanding something which is simple.

Assuming you run a company and you wanted to hire people for a specific role, you get people applying for the role and they give you certain documents which you request for (yes, don't be an idiot and say tell me you won't request for any documents like most people arguing here). You will need to know who you are hiring and at what level of expertise they are at.

My question is simple. How do you know the documents they provide are true? You have to be smart. If everything you say is illegal and you want to be so damn afraid of everything in life like all the other failures then yes, don't ask for anything and just accept everything has been said.

just by this we know TS punya HR experience ahax, must be many years of experience

ohwai..
