This insurance, which is regulated by the Employment Insurance System Act 2017 and is also administered by SOCSO, protects workers between the ages of 18 and 60 who have lost their jobs, except in the case of voluntary termination, termination of the contract, unconditional termination of the contract, completion of a project defined in a contract, retirement and dismissal for misconduct. On the other hand, Article 2 of the Law on the LPE stipulates that an “employee” means “any person who is not a person on the first list, who is employed under a written or oral service or apprenticeship contract and who works expressly or implicitly for an employer”. Salaries for the purposes of the ETH represent any monetary remuneration that includes the salary, bonus, commission and indemnity due under its service contract, whether the monthly, weekly, daily or other payment has been agreed. This means that an oral agreement between an employee and an employer would be a valid employment contract. As long as both parties have understood that this is an employment contract, the employee is eligible for the EPF contribution. It is best to have a written employment contract. In this scenario, the person is more likely to enter into a contract for services. Although individuals have to check in daily at the office, they still benefit from flexible working hours. In other words, MWK Properties has no control over the precise time at which the person decides to check in at the office. In addition, there is no indication that the employer controls and/or interferes with how the person meets with (potential) buyers to sign the agreement. Therefore, it can be speculated that if he does not participate in a tournament, his only source of income for the sports club would be fixed pocket money. When you have reached the age of 75, you are no longer considered an employee within the meaning of the ETH Act.

For part-time workers, you must earn more than RM10 per hour to be eligible for the EPF contribution, but make sure your contract is a service contract. So, if you are employed under a service contract, whether you are a full-time or part-time employee, you and your employer will have to contribute to your ETH fund. Employment contract: Both parties agree on an employer-employee relationship. In this contract, the employee undertakes to serve his employer. This applies to both regular full-time and part-time contracts. Part-time workers must earn more than RM10 per hour to be eligible for EPF contribution. In this scenario, it is very likely that the person is involved in a service contract. The person has fixed working days, fixed working hours and a certain time for the lunch break. Nor does the individual have the freedom to function outside the framework given to him. Service Contract: This contract refers to the nature of the relationship between the client and the contractor. The contractor is the independent contractor who agrees to provide some kind of service to the client and is not considered an employee. This applies to freelance contracts.

Perhaps it is important to notice a small but big difference in employment contracts. There are two types. `pension benefits` means any payment made to a worker for retirement, whether compulsory or optional or for health reasons in accordance with the worker`s contract of employment. One person works on Saturdays, Sundays and Mondays from 9 a.m.m to 5 p.m.m., has a fixed lunch break and the Employees` Provident Fund (EPF) is provided. Is it a service contract or a service contract?

It is recommended to hire a payroll service provider to take care of the registration of your employees with the ETH and SOCSO, the payment of salaries, social security contributions and also the mandatory contribution of the ETH, SOCSO and SIE. An employer is defined as one or more persons with whom an employee has a service or training contract. In our previous article (“The Difference Between a Service Contract and a Service Contract”) (Part 1), we commented on the differences between a service contract and a service contract. In this second article in the same series, we will apply the principles discussed in Part 1 in certain hypothetical situations to determine the nature of the contract as well as our analyses and reasons. It seems to us that the employer has full control over the employee in terms of scope of work, hours of work, etc. In addition, the fact that it receives EPF contributions would be more likely to lean towards a service contract.

In Stevenson, Jordan & Harrison, Ltd v Macdonald & Evans [1952] 1 LRT 101, Lord Denning made useful remarks on the distinction between a service contract and a service contract. It seems that the common denominator behind a service contract is that a man is employed as part of the enterprise and his work is performed as an integral part of the enterprise. In service contracts, the work of a man, although done for the company, is not integrated into it, but only an accessory. The case law has proposed several factors relevant to the process of determining a contract for services, although the presence or absence of such a factor is inconclusive, since the decision depends on the combined effect of all relevant factors when those who refer to “employment” are weighed against those who oppose it. Factors that lead to the identification of a service contract are: Any payment that an employer makes to an employee after separation from service or voluntary dismissal in recognition of that employee`s performance. One person works for MWK Properties to sell houses. He must be in the office from Monday to Sunday. He receives flexible working hours, but has to check in at the office every day. He has to meet with people to make arrangements, but he cannot claim travel expenses. Each time he sells a property, he receives 3% of the commission and this covers his travel expenses as well as his remuneration. He receives a basic allowance of RM500, but not EPF and SOCSO.
