Document background
The Joint Employment Agreement is utilized when two or more employers wish to formally share the services of a single employee in Malaysia. This arrangement is common in situations such as corporate group structures, joint ventures, or specialized professional services where expertise needs to be shared. The agreement ensures compliance with Malaysian employment law, particularly the Employment Act 1955, while clearly defining how responsibilities, costs, and obligations are shared between employers. It covers essential elements including work allocation, remuneration structure, reporting relationships, and benefit administration, while protecting the interests of all parties involved. This document is particularly relevant when organizations need to formalize resource sharing arrangements while maintaining clear legal and operational frameworks.
