Malaysian Gaming Chain Embroiled in HR Issues During MCO [Update]
The COVID-19 pandemic is disrupting many non-essential businesses all across Malaysia, including a particular Malaysia’s video game store chain that rhymes with “Baby’s Day Out”. And it seems that there’s a bit of kerfuffle going on behind the scenes, particularly from an HR’s standpoint.
According to a recent reveal via Twitter, the management behind the company is forcing its staff to take annual leave or get unpaid leave during the COVID-19 lockdown while working from home. The tip-off started with Danial Ashman’s Twitter post, who is a former employee of the store in question.
Sources close to Kakuchopurei has confirmed this, alongside other details.
We have reached out to the Malaysian gaming store’s CEO to hear his side of the story. No official response has been sent at this time of writing. We do hope there’s a resolution to this tale; as much as we love having our games physically and delivered/collected on time, we still want the job status quo to remain stable.
Also, it’s illegal to not pay your employees during the MCO.
