In the ever-changing landscape of business, companies may face unforeseen challenges that necessitate significant adjustments, including the sale or restructuring of the business. In these moments, the well-being of foreign workers employed by these companies takes on added significance. Recognizing this, Malaysia’s regulatory framework includes a compassionate provision known as TUKAR MAJIKAN, or Change of Employer, designed to ensure these workers are not left in a vulnerable position.

This thoughtful process allows foreign workers to be seamlessly transferred to new employers under a variety of circumstances, including economic hardships, bankruptcy, the aftermath of natural disasters, downturns in the economy, company restructuring, changes in business status, alteration of company name or directors, or even the passing of the original employer. It’s a testament to the commitment to protect those who contribute to the economy, ensuring they continue to have employment opportunities despite the turbulent tides of business.

By embracing the TUKAR MAJIKAN process, employers can ensure a smooth transition for their foreign workforce, safeguarding their well-being and continuity of employment. This mechanism not only supports the workers but also allows businesses undergoing transitions to manage their responsibilities ethically and efficiently.
