Employment & Industrial Relations

FAAIZ Law advises both employers and employees on the full range of employment and industrial relations matters in Malaysia. We help businesses put in place sound employment practices and represent individuals whose rights at work have been affected, providing clear and practical guidance grounded in the Employment Act and the Industrial Relations Act.

For employees, we act in cases of unfair dismissal, constructive dismissal, wrongful termination and workplace disputes. We advise on representations to the Industrial Court and pursue claims for reinstatement or compensation, guiding clients through each stage of the process so they understand their rights and the likely outcomes.

For employers, we assist with employment contracts, handbooks and policies, disciplinary procedures, domestic inquiries, retrenchment exercises and the management of workplace grievances. Our aim is to help employers comply with the law, manage risk and handle disputes fairly and effectively.

Frequently Asked Questions

I was dismissed. What can I claim?
If a dismissal is without just cause or excuse, you may claim reinstatement or compensation and backwages through the Industrial Court.

How long do I have to file a claim?
An unfair dismissal representation must generally be filed within 60 days of dismissal, so act quickly.

What is constructive dismissal?
Where an employer's conduct forces you to resign, the law may treat it as a dismissal that you can challenge.
