KUCHING: She disclosed that out of 900 plus firms that were presumed to be registered, just a total of 686 private companies had filed up to now when asked how many businesses in Sarawak were filed with HRDF.
“Total, throughout Malaysia had filed businesses an estimated 12,000 with HRDF,” said Tuty including that HRDF was updated on the amounts from data obtained from the Social of Malaysia and Worker Commission Security Organisation, Companies ’s Provident Fund.
As the total financial assistance amounted 4 million, that has been derived from documented members when asked about the amount of funds she said.
“The year-on-year utilisation rate of the HRDF training provider has been growing and it demonstrates the HR training routines of firms in Sarawak are not unsound.
“Yet, every training that’s approved by HRDF doesn’t always should be ran by itas firms are allowed to run their own internal training sessions,” she included.
“HRDF just isn’t a training supplier, we’re an agency that tracks the monthly levies paid by the firms are –ed by the funds. That’s why any business that runs training can source trainers outside and after the training is finished it can apply for the training compensation from us,” Tuty described.
She acknowledged as they were worried about the business side of these day-to-day operations that training was consistently the last thing on any firm’s plan of action.
Businesses will require training and updating skills If there’s absolutely no actions taken by the authorities. So, HRDF has enforcers that approach and will track businesses in case they detect a deficiency of training actions she stressed.
She pointed out that HRDF had began to enforce the compulsory enrollment for advisors or training houses since January 2012. You’ll find now a total of 52 private training suppliers in Sarawak.
In accordance with HRDF division supervisor in Sarawak, Tuty Bujang, HRDF failed to run training but it acted as a tracking agency between the training provider (or training houses) and businesses that gave training for their workers.
Tuty told The Borneo Post yesterday that in terms of the HRDF Act 2001 (612), any business in the production and services sector that executed the conditions of the Act was obligated to enroll with HRDF and pay a monthly Recruiting Development Levy (HRDL).
She clarified the HRDL was a compulsory levy payment levied by the authorities on given groups of companies with the aim of worker training and skills updating.
“Everybody in business or any organisation plays a part in the day-to-day management and operation procedure and so there shouldn’t be any exemption of workers in terms of training or updating ” she said.
