FAQ

Local worker recruitment FAQ

What's the difference between local and foreign worker recruitment services?
Local worker recruitment sources Malaysian citizens with no quota, visa, or FOMEMA requirements involved — placements can typically be completed within days to a few weeks. Foreign worker recruitment requires KESUMA eQuota approval, VDR/PLKS processing, and FOMEMA screening.
Do you handle EPF and SOCSO registration for placed workers?
We provide documentation guidance and onboarding support to ensure every placed worker is properly registered for EPF (KWSP), SOCSO (PERKESO), and EIS from their first day of employment.
How quickly can local workers be placed?
Typical turnaround is 1–3 weeks depending on role complexity, sourcing volume, and location — faster than foreign worker recruitment since no government quota or visa processing is required.
Which industries do you support for local worker placement?
Manufacturing, logistics and warehousing, construction, retail, and hospitality across Selangor, Kuala Lumpur, Johor Bahru, Penang, and other major industrial zones in Peninsular Malaysia.
