The Malaysian Airline System Employees Union (MASEU) has urged all government linked companies (GLCs) to publicly declare their minimum wage.
The union said the GLCs should be more transparent and fully comply with the corporate social responsibility (CSR) in managing their staff.
"The GLCs are currently competing against each other in declaring their huge profits publicly but at the same time, exploiting and harassing local workers," it said in a statement here today.
MASEU suggested Malaysia should have a statutory minimum wage to safeguard workers in the country.
"In the absence of a statutory minimum wage, employers often insist that it must be determined by market forces, which in several cases, falls below the poverty line of income," MASEU noted. -- Bernama
