The Malaysian Minister of Human Resource has recently announced that the Industrial Relations Act 1967 will be amended to introduce an Industrial Appeal Court to allow appeals directly from the Industrial Court. The Bill is scheduled to be tabled in the parliament in June this year.
As it stands, parties aggrieved by the decision of the Industrial Court may only challenge the decision by way of judicial review application in the High Courts. The introduction of the Industrial Appeals Court aims to introduce an expeditious disposal of unfair dismissal claims.
