Employment Law in Malaysia (E-Book)

Employment Law in Malaysia (E-Book) 

The history of labour relations in Malaysia is covered in this book, with a focus on migrant workers, trade unions, and early legislative solutions to these problems. With an emphasis on current concerns like obligations and the employer-employee relationship, changes in how people work, and how they have sparked a change in the judicial attitude towards a worker's legal status and rights, the author offers rights-based labour jurisprudence in a practical way.

The extent of employment protection, including statutory rights and obligations, as well as key employment law topics like termination of employment, unjust dismissal, and constructive dismissal are carefully analysed and succinctly explained. It successfully gives a great historical and evolutional basis in a perfect mix of themes relating to the contemporary landscape, in particular in Malaysia. It is designed to present a comprehensive picture of the condition of Employment Law in Malaysia today.
