SOCSO has announced that, starting from 1st July 2024, foreign workers in Malaysia must contribute to the Invalidity Scheme just like local workers.
This includes both employee and employer contributions under Category 1, as mandated by the Employees' Social Security Act 1969 (Act 4).
What do I need to change if my foreign workers are affected?

2. Enhanced formula validation for claim file upload.
Now when there is a formula assigned to that claim type, users can key in figures directly and leave the amount column blank.
Previously, the amount column is a compulsory field which was calculated manually, with this update the system will automatically calculate the claim amount
with the predefined formula.
For example:
Company claims entitlement for mileage claim is 1KM = RM 2.00.
Hence, input 5km in the excel file, amountcan be blank.
After importing the excel file, the claim module will calculate with the provided formula.
