Knowing my HR, she going to say “okay if you want bank in you can only receive 7 days later”

Her argument on why she go cash is because if that day or the day before got absentism she can deduct on the spot. If got bank in the Giro need to approve few days before actual pay date. So if got absentism between salary bank in and approval date very hard to claw back apparently.

I don’t want argue much coz this hr of mine power trip and probably sucking the GMs cock.

I cannot imagine have to carry 24k cash everymonth to go and bank in.

Something wrong with that bangla.. actually I think in our country, bangla also become demanding already.

Or maybe he don't have bangla friends who can explain our wages system. (min salary).

I paid cash to my workers for almost 10 years without problems. Now only say illegal?

At the same time, I also paid SOCSO and EPF plus LHDN for the workers. Cash only payable after deductions.

That bangla work 9 months adi he said. Bangla wont know anything minimum wage. and employer can take advantage. if authority come then can say deduct rm100 for accommodation or foods. They start work 5am. They like bangla over local because bangla more cincai, can work long hour without OT.

my old place use to pay cash to illegal workers using money gotten from selling scarp metal, means their salary every month not fixed, can drag up to weeks for salary, sometimes suddenly every other week got payment.....

i believe this is to excape paying taxes, EPF and such......

but office staff black and white, maybe bcoz we will complain to labour dept. chinaman boss btw....

lucky i join SG company, a bit more standard......

From a quick google... It seems that the employment act was amended in 2012.

All salaries through bank account now.

Previously, it was the opposite, salaries must be in legal tender ie cash. If through bank account, hr must hand out an approval form for the staff to sign. As previously in ancient times, where got atm everywhere so convenient like nowadays.

Plantation workers and those working in rural places having to take one day no pay leave to go to town and to the bank to withdraw money. smile.gif

So different nowadays with ewallet and debit card.

In your situation, you must get your workers to sign an approval form.
