Inflation has been hitting many people around the globe and one of the things that would help tide us through is the increase of wages.
Just over 3 months ago, according to Sin Chew Daily, Minister of Human Resources, Datuk Seri Saravanan, has announced that the minimum wage for companies that have 5 employees and above would be raised to RM1,500 immediately. Companies that have less than 5 employees will have to increase the minimum wage to Rm1,500 starting next year.
Unfortunately, it seems like this company in Klang did not get the memo. According to a post on a Facebook group, this company has put out a hiring notice.
The hiring notice states that they’re looking for a HR Manager, but the salary given ranges from RM1,000-RM1,250.
Many netizens were shocked at how low the pay was and here’s what some of them have to say:
“I don’t need the position.”
Some are saying that foreign workers earn much more than RM1,250.
“This is way below the minimum wage.”
Others think it could be a typo:
Maybe even working at the wrong year?
Would you have taken this job if it was offered to you?
