Penamaan Waris KWSP





Jangan biarkan orang tersayang terus menderita
Kematian amat menyedihkan dan ia meninggalkan kesan yang mendalam kepada orang tersayang. Anda perlu merancang bagi mengelakkan ahli keluarga menderita sekiranya anda meninggal dunia terutama sekali jika keluarga bergantung nafkah kepada anda.

Dengan membuat penamaan KWSP dan mengemaskinikannya, ahli keluarga boleh mengeluarkan simpanan KWSP anda dengan mudah jika berlaku kematian.

Jika anda TIDAK membuat dan mengemaskini penamaan, perkara berikut mungkin akan berlaku kepada keluarga anda:

  1. Mereka terpaksa melalui proses yang sukar untuk mendapatkan dokumen-dokumen seperti Surat Kuasa Mentadbir, Surat Probet atau Perintah Pembahagian daripada pihak berkuasa sebagai dokumen sokongan untuk mengeluarkan simpanan KWSP. Proses ini mengambil masa yang lama dan kemungkinan dikenakan bayaran oleh pihak berkuasa berkaitan. Sebaliknya, jika penamaan KWSP telah dibuat, semua dokumen ini tidak diperlukan dan proses pengeluaran simpanan akan menjadi lebih mudah dan lancar.



  2. Pihak berkuasa yang mengeluarkan dokumen sokongan akan menentukan keutamaan individu yang layak menerima simpanan anda. Ini boleh menyebabkan berlaku konflik di kalangan ahli keluarga. Jika penamaan telah dibuat, simpanan KWSP akan dibayar kepada penama yang telah anda namakan. Untuk ahli beragama Islam, penama akan bertindak sebagai pentadbir (wasi) yang bertanggungjawab mengagihkan simpanan anda mengikut Hukum Faraid.

Jika anda berkahwin, ditakdirkan bercerai atau mendapat cahaya mata, anda dinasihati mengemaskini penamaan KWSP anda.

Lindungi orang tersayang daripada terus menderita.
Mulakan langkah yang bijak dengan membuat penamaan dan mengemaskini penamaan anda.

Group SHE Dept New Year Message

My 2010 New Year greetings to all.
As we look back at our Safety Statistic and records for the year 2009, we can be proud of it as we are definately making progress in our performance.  Even though there was one Lost Time Accident ( fatality ), which was more of an individual's careless mistake, the overall result is a good achievement.  Still, there is more work to be done because ONE INJURY on the job is still ONE TOO MANY.

I would like to emphasize that while preventing accidents and incidents is every company's LEGAL RESPONSIBILITY and, I believe, a MORAL OBLIGATION, Safety and Health also makes GOOD BUSINESS SENSE.  Please be reminded that workplace accidents and incidents will cost a company some financial loss.  These costs affect every man, woman and child - every employee, every employer and every family member.

May I share with you, fellow managers and safety personnel, my ideas in developing a simple but good Safety,Health & Environmental plan by considering several actions, such as:

*  Defining a framework of Action that will lead to a strategic approach for strengthening our Safety, Health &         
   Environmental ( SHE ) Management system through planned program.
*  Identifying the elements of the planned program that promote a safety culture, strengthens the SHE management
   system, and have objectives and targets.
*  Harmonizing the SHE management system through promotion and advocacy, legislation, inspection and knowledge.
*  Developing strategies on prevention of work-related injuries and illness, and promoting health of workers.
*  Integrating SHE in all our business dealings.

Safety, Health & Environment MUST become everybody's concern and cannot remain the responsibility of a selected few only.  This is my view.

Thank you all and I assure my full support in your plans in advancing the cause of work safety and health in your place.  Wishing you all a successfull and progressive New Year - 2010 .

                           " MAKE EVERYDAY A SAFE DAY "

KWSP Perkenal Skim Simpanan Persaraan 1Malaysia




Simpanan Peroleh Dividen Tahunan Serta 5% Sumbangan Kerajaan


Mulai 3 Januari 2010, kebimbangan golongan yang bekerja sendiri seperti petani, nelayan, pemandu teksi, penjaja dan pemilik perniagaan terhadap ketidakcukupan simpanan semasa bersara bakal diatasi dengan pengenalan Skim Simpanan Persaraan 1Malaysia oleh Kumpulan Wang Simpanan Pekerja (KWSP).

Skim Simpanan Persaraan 1Malaysia yang diumumkan oleh YAB Perdana Menteri Malaysia semasa pembentangan Bajet 2010 pada Oktober lepas berlandaskan kepada tanggungjawab sosial, dengan mengambil berat terhadap kebajikan semua peringkat rakyat yang bekerja sendiri iaitu kategori individu yang tidak mempunyai skim simpanan persaraan secara formal.  Skim ini bertujuan untuk memberikan perlindungan kewangan kepada individu yang tidak mempunyai pendapatan tetap apabila mereka mencapai usia tua.

“Kerajaan sentiasa prihatin terhadap ketidakcukupan simpanan persaraan yang menjadi kebimbangan sebahagian besar rakyat Malaysia terutamanya golongan bekerja sendiri yang tidak mempunyai pendapatan tetap bulanan. Skim Simpanan Persaraan 1Malaysia menawarkan golongan terpilih ini fleksibiliti dalam menentukan berapakah jumlah yang mampu disimpan untuk simpanan persaraan mereka,” kata Tan Sri Azlan Zainol, Ketua Pegawai Eksekutif KWSP.

Tidak seperti skim simpanan KWSP yang biasa, amaun yang dicarumkan ke dalam Skim Simpanan Persaraan 1Malaysia adalah bergantung kepada tahap kemampuan pencarum sepenuhnya.

“Ahli boleh memilih untuk mencarum amaun minimum sebanyak RM50 sehingga RM5,000 sebulan sebagai simpanan persaraan mereka. Caruman adalah secara sukarela dan pencarum juga tidak perlu membayar caruman setiap bulan, ia bergantung kepada tahap kemampuan mereka,” tambah Tan Sri Azlan.

“Bagaimanapun, ahli digalakkan untuk mencarum sejumlah wang secara berterusan tidak kira berapa jumlahnya, ke dalam skim persaraan ini kerana disiplin amat perlu apabila menyimpan untuk persaraan.”
Simpanan di bawah skim ini akan menerima dividen tahunan mengikut kadar yang diumumkan KWSP sebagai tambahan kepada sumbangan kerajaan sebanyak 5 peratus dan tertakluk kepada jumlah maksimum sebanyak RM60 setahun, selama 5 tahun bermula dari tahun 2010 hingga 2014.

Skim Simpanan Persaraan 1Malaysia ini terbuka kepada individu bekerja sendiri seperti penjaja, peniaga pasar malam, ejen hartanah, golongan freelance seperti deejay, instruktur kesihatan dan kecergasan (fitness instructors), penyanyi dan pelakon, serta pemilik perniagaan online.

Individu yang berminat untuk menyertai skim ini perlu mengisi Borang KWSP 16G(1M) yang boleh diperoleh di Cawangan KWSP seluruh negara atau memuat-turun dari laman web ini mulai 3 Januari 2010. Borang ini perlu dikembalikan ke Cawangan berdekatan KWSP atau melalui serahan mel.

Bagaimanapun, individu yang berminat dan masih belum menjadi ahli KWSP perlu berdaftar sebagai ahli KWSP terlebih dahulu dengan mengisi Borang KWSP 3 dan mengemukakannya kepada KWSP sebelum memohon menyertai skim ini.
Simpanan boleh didepositkan secara tunai atau cek menggunakan Borang KWSP 6A(2) di Kaunter Bayaran KWSP seluruh negara.
Ahli KWSP sedia ada yang telah bekerja sendiri turut layak memilih untuk menyertai skim baru ini.
Simpanan di bawah skim ini juga boleh dikeluarkan tertakluk kepada syarat dan prosedur semasa pengeluaran KWSP.

Untuk keterangan lanjut, sila kunjungi pejabat KWSP berdekatan atau hubungi Pusat Panggilan KWSP di 03-8922 6000 atau layari laman web ini.

Mengenai Kumpulan Wang Simpanan Pekerja (KWSP)

USE SOCSO COUNSELLORS, CLAIMANT TOLD

15 October 2009
(the star)


KUALA LUMPUR: Despite efforts by the Social Security Organisation (Socso) to weed out middlemen, many people are still seeking their services, Human Resources Minister Datuk Dr S. Subramaniam said.



Contributors, he said, should deal directly with Socso counsellors, who have been placed at the Socso head office and branches in Petaling Jaya, Ipoh, Penang, Seremban and Johor Baru.
Dr Subramaniam said in a statement that the counsellors would assist contributors to apply for social protection via Socso’s Employment Injury Insurance and Invalidity Pension Schemes.


A Socso official said they had previously detected about 500 fraudulent claims by contributors and third parties using false identity cards.


In some cases, workers and employers colluded to make the claims, he said.


He said middlemen or agents would charge up to 30% commission when making claims on behalf of contributors, mostly those from the lower income group who are not well versed with the procedures.
There have also been complaints that they had filed false claims for Socso members and used fake medical reports to get invalidity pensions approved, he added

HR Ministry Officer Visit to Johor Branch

Source : Selvanathan


Johor Branch received a visit from Human Resouces Ministry (Industrial Relation Dept) officer named En.Abdul Kadir bin Muhamad - Assistant Director of IR Dept, Johor on 2 November 2009 at 10.00 a.m.


Group HR Dept supported Johor Branch personnel during this visit, which was to ensure our Company complies with all requirements articulated in the IR Act in terms of administering a good and cordial employer-employee relationship and to study if there is a current need for workers union establishment at the moment in Johor branch.

Group HR/Admin Dept responded that there is no such requirement for workers union at the moment, as all employment related issues are currently solved amicably via good and cordial discussion between the workers and the Management. Below are the current practices highlighted to Mr. Kadir on methods of addressing and solving employment related issues practiced by Johor Branch:

1. Daily Tool Box Meeting; which also caters matters raised concerning workers employment, benefit and other HR related issues.

2. Complaint/Suggestion Form ; which is currently placed at the notice board to allow any employee to write in their grievance to the Management

3. Close relationship with unofficial employee representative (local and foreigners); to ensure any employment related grievances are heard and solved immediately, due to language barrier and work nature.

4. Acting as a caring employer; by subsiding accommodation, PPE, transportation and other HR related expenses, which most of other companies will charge back to their employee’s salary.

As the result of our explanation, Mr. Kadir was very happy with our commitment in terms of IR management at Johor Branch and even invited us to have closer relationship with them for any IR related support in near future.

Group HR/Admin Dept also requested Mr. Kadir to include Johor Branch Management employees for any future training conducted by the HR Ministry concerning IR matters, an idea which was very much welcomed by him.

Group HR/Admin Dept hereby wishes to thank Johor Branch for the support rendered during the visit.
