Under #GraduanKerja, several incentives will be given out to both the employers and the graduates who have been unemployed for 12 months.
- Graduates who have gotten a job opportunity will get an incentive of RM500 a month for two consecutive years. Yes, this is in addition to your salary.
- Employees will get RM300 a month for the same period (two years) if they have hired said graduate.
The graduates’ incentives will be credited into their EPF savings, as according to Malaysiakini.
