Document background
The Work From Home Job Offer Letter has become increasingly important in Malaysian employment practices, particularly following the global shift toward remote work arrangements. This document serves as the formal initiation of an employment relationship where the primary work location will be the employee's residence. It needs to comply with Malaysian employment law, including the Employment Act 1955 and its recent amendments that recognize flexible working arrangements. The letter typically includes essential information about the position, compensation, benefits, working hours, remote work specifications, and equipment provisions. It's designed to protect both employer and employee interests while establishing clear expectations for remote work performance and communication protocols. This document is particularly relevant for companies adopting permanent remote work policies or hybrid working models in Malaysia.
