Document background
The Placement Contract Agreement serves as the primary legal framework for establishing and managing the relationship between placement agencies and their client companies in Malaysia. This document is essential when companies engage professional recruitment services for their hiring needs, whether for permanent, temporary, or contract positions. The agreement ensures compliance with Malaysian employment legislation, including the Employment Act 1955 and Private Employment Agencies Act 1981, while clearly defining the scope of services, fee structures, and mutual obligations. It provides necessary protections for all parties involved and includes specific provisions for candidate screening, placement processes, guarantees, and dispute resolution mechanisms. The document is particularly important in the current Malaysian business environment where companies increasingly rely on professional placement services for their recruitment needs.
