Selangor's got a holiday on 1 September. Whether you get it is a different question. πŸ†

Selangor hosted SUKMA 2026 and took back the overall crown β€” 101 gold, 73 silver, 71 bronze. To celebrate, Menteri Besar Datuk Seri Amirudin Shari declared 1 September a special state holiday.

Now here's the part filling up every office group chat:

βœ… Civil servants β€” you're off. All federal and state civil servants serving in Selangor.

⚠️ Private sector β€” it's your employer's call. The holiday was declared under Section 9(1) of the Holidays Act 1951. Section 60D(1)(b) of the Employment Act 1955 only makes Section 8 declarations compulsory for private employers β€” so this one isn't automatic. You're entitled to it only if your company chooses to observe it, or it's already in your contract.

So before you book anything for the long weekend, check with HR first. πŸ˜…

And to everyone who is off β€” enjoy it. Selangor earned this one.

Juggling holiday entitlements across states, contracts and payroll? That's the messy part PeopleX takes off your plate. Find out more at peoplex.ai

Selamat Menyambut Maulidur Rasul πŸŒ™

A day set aside to remember the life of Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) β€” and the values that came with it. Compassion. Honesty. Fair treatment of the people who work alongside us.

Wherever you're spending the day, we hope it's a calm and meaningful one.

From all of us at PeopleX β€” Selamat Menyambut Maulidur Rasul to you and your family.

πŸ“Œ HR update: if you're paying RM3,000 or below a month, that employment contract doesn't need to be stamped.

HASiL issued a media statement on 7 August 2026 clarifying how stamp duty applies to employment contracts. Here's the short version:

βœ… RM3,000 and below β€” exempt. No stamping, no endorsement, no submission needed.
❗ Above RM3,000 β€” RM10 stamp duty, and the main employment contract must be stamped and endorsed within 30 days of signing.
πŸ“„ Supplementary documents for the same employment β€” no separate stamping or endorsement required.

That last one is the point most HR teams are still over-complying on. If you've been submitting every confirmation letter and salary adjustment letter separately, you can stop.

Swipe through for the full breakdown and a 4-step cleanup for your contract files.

πŸ“’ Staying in LINDUNG 24 Jam? Good news β€” you don't need to do anything.

PERKESO has clarified how the voluntary declaration works for local employees, and it's simpler than you think:

βœ… Want to stay protected? No action needed. If no opt-out notice is received by 31 August 2026, your participation is activated automatically.

❌ Want to opt out? You must complete the Liability Waiver Notice (Notis Pelepasan Liabiliti) via the Portal LINDUNG Faedah before 31 August 2026.

⚠️ Remember: once submitted, your choice is final and cannot be changed. And if you opt out, you won't be eligible for benefits under the scheme β€” so decide carefully.

πŸ“Œ Note: This applies to local employees only. Participation remains mandatory for foreign workers.

Need the step-by-step portal walkthrough? We've got you covered in our earlier guide: [link to 13 July post]

For employers β€” ""no action needed"" for employees still means action for HR. Track who has opted out, keep the declaration records, and make sure deductions are right from the next payroll run. Or let PeopleX's Payroll Outsourcing team handle all of it for you. DM us to get started! πŸ’¬

πŸ“’ Big update for Malaysian employees β€” PERKESO's LINDUNG 24 Jam Scheme is now voluntary!

Effective 8 July 2026, participation in the LINDUNG 24 Jam Scheme (SKBBK) is no longer automatic. You now get to decide β€” opt in to stay protected, or opt out if you prefer.

The best part? Making your declaration only takes a few minutes on the Portal Lindung Faedah. Swipe through for the full step-by-step guide πŸ‘‰

⏰ Don't wait β€” make your declaration ASAP so your choice is reflected before your next salary is processed.

⚠️ Heads up: once you submit your choice, it cannot be changed β€” so decide carefully!

πŸ“Œ Note: The scheme is voluntary for local Malaysian employees only. For foreign employees, participation remains mandatory.

Not sure what LINDUNG 24 Jam covers? The scheme protects you against eligible non-work-related accidents, including medical, disablement, dependants', funeral, and rehabilitation benefits.

🚨 UPDATE: LINDUNG 24 JAM is no longer mandatory for local employees.

The Cabinet has decided β€” contributions under PERKESO's LINDUNG 24 JAM Scheme are now VOLUNTARY for local employees, effective immediately. Contributions remain MANDATORY for foreign workers.

Here's what employers need to know:
βœ… Compulsory deductions for local employees stop immediately
βœ… Contributions stay mandatory for foreign workers
βœ… PERKESO will announce the voluntary opt-in process for local employees soon
βœ… KESUMA will review the scheme by end of 2026 β€” more changes could follow

One announcement, and your payroll setup changes overnight. That's exactly why SMEs let PeopleX handle payroll β€” we track every PERKESO update, apply the right treatment to every employee category, and keep every payslip compliant.

Working extra hours is one thing. Getting paid correctly for it is another. πŸ•

Under the Employment Act 1955, employees earning below RM4,000/month are legally entitled to overtime pay β€” and it must be calculated using the right rates and the right hours.
πŸ“Œ Normal working day β†’ 1.5x hourly rate
πŸ“Œ Rest day β†’ 2x hourly rate
πŸ“Œ Public holiday β†’ 3x hourly rate

Hourly Rate = Monthly Salary Γ· 26 Γ· 8
OT Pay = Hourly Rate Γ— OT Hours Γ— Rate Multiplier

The formula is straightforward β€” but only if the hours are tracked correctly in the first place.

With PeopleX, employees clock in and out via our HR app, OT hours are recorded automatically, and our payroll team handles the full calculation directly. No manual tracking, no compliance risk.
