04:04 Min

Currently, about 80 per cent of employees in social service agencies (SSAs) are paid according to the National Council of Social Service (NCSS) Sector Skills and Salary Guidelines. Over the years, the Ministry of Social and Family Development (MSF) has reviewed and raised the salary guidelines so that wages in the social service sector remain competitive against comparable roles in competing markets. Social and Family Development Minister Masagos Zulkifli said this in his reply to an MP’s questions on Friday (Feb 27). Speaking in parliament, he also said that MSF’s data suggests that SSAs have generally been keeping pace with updates to the salary guidelines.
