Abstract:
In general, emoluments, allowances and all forms of income related to employment are considered as employment income zakat in Malaysia. However, based on the practice of zakat institutions in Malaysia, not all that is received in relation to employment is liable for mandatory zakat, including all forms of benefit in kind (BIK). On the other hand, in terms of taxation practice, all benefits in kind received by an employee are taxable by Inland Revenue Board of Malaysia (LHDN), except for benefits listed in Paragraph 9. BIK refers to benefits given to employees, which cannot be convertible into

Abstract:
Double employment is a situation where an employee holds double paid jobs, either as an employee or as being self-employed. The issue of double employment has been subject to discussion and even has brought to industrial dispute between employer and employee which require the judicial intervention. While some employers allow their employees to engage in double employment, there are few legislations clearly prohibit this practice. In Malaysia, as to date there is no specific law regulating double employment by employees. This article aims to analyse the position of double employment in Malaysia

Analysis of labor force survey (LFS) data since the early 1990s reveals several important changes in the structure of the Philippine labor force. One is the movement from self-employment to wage employment across a wide range of production sectors.

We also examine broad structural trends for employment, wages, and earnings. The findings indicate high variance in the ear

This article deals with existing models of household behavior, based on the assumption of the possibility of employees to determine their own level of consumption and employment, depending on a given wage rate and accumulated assets. An alternative view is offered that the wage rate accepted by employees can be expressed through financial assets and employment. Based on this assumption, the model "financial assets – labor price" was developed, determining the impact of the volume of financial assets of households and the level of employment on the wage rate, the minimum acceptable for workers.

Abstract:
In most developed and developing nations individuals are actively being encouraged to save towards retirement via a plethora of savings mechanisms. In Malaysia, the reliance on individual savings through the Employees Provident Fund has costly implications for those in low paid, insecure employment, women and those working in the informal sector. Focussing on Malaysia, this paper seeks to present the pitfalls of such over reliance on the provident fund mechanism, which allows early access to savings and diverts members' contributions to subsidiary accounts. In conclusion, the paper suggests pa

Abstract Flexible Working Arrangements (FWAs), particularly working from home, are important to maintain a better work-life balance. The government of Malaysia has recently amended the Employment Act 1955 (Act 266) by incorporating the right of the employees to request for FWAs. However, the authors submit that the policymakers should have incorporated the right to disconnect (RTD) in the recent amendment. Thus, it is the objective of this article to explore the provisions of RTD as recently accepted in France and a few European Union (EU) countries; and the possibility of introducing the RTD
