Putrajaya, 29 June – The Institute of Labour Market Information and Analysis (ILMIA), Ministry of Human Resources, is currently conducting the “National Employment Returns 2018” and the “National Labour Cost Survey 2017”. These studies would enable the ministry to update the profile of the Malaysian workforce while identifying the key labour cost indicators. Some crucial indicators that would be attained from these studies include data on workers’ pay and benefits and total hours worked. The data points from the study would also be crucial to the Ministry for future policy planning.
