As a Myanmar migrant worker in Malaysia, you have legal rights that protect you regardless of your immigration status. This guide covers the most important rights every worker should know. 1. RIGHT TO WAGES: Your employer must pay you the agreed wage on time. Deductions can only be made for legally allowed purposes. 2. RIGHT TO SAFE CONDITIONS: Your workplace must meet safety standards. You can refuse unsafe work without fear of dismissal. 3. RIGHT TO REST: You are entitled to at least one rest day per week and annual leave. 4. RIGHT TO REFUSE ABUSE: No employer can physically or verbally abuse you. If your rights are violated, contact the nearest Myanmar embassy or use this platform to file a welfare report.
