Do you manage SOCSO and EIS contributions?
Last updated: May 15, 2026
Yes. MalayHire manages both SOCSO (Social Security Organisation / PERKESO) and EIS (Employment Insurance System) on your behalf:
SOCSO:
- Covers work-related injuries (Employment Injury Scheme) and invalidity (Invalidity Pension Scheme)
- Contributions are calculated on a tiered rate based on monthly salary, capped at a salary ceiling of RM5,000/month
- Both employer and employee contribute; rates are set by PERKESO and published in the SOCSO contribution table
EIS:
- Provides financial assistance to employees who lose their jobs through retrenchment or company closure
- Employer and employee each contribute 0.4% of monthly salary, capped at a salary ceiling of RM4,000/month
Both are remitted by the 15th of each following month. Contributions are reflected on the employee's monthly payslip.
