Only a small number of companies have failed to make statutory payments to the Social Security Organisation (Perkeso) post the Covid-19 pandemic, according to the Malaysian Aviation Commission (Mavcom).

Following the signing of a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) between Mavcom and Perkeso on Monday (Dec 16), Mavcom executive chairman Datuk Seri Saripuddin Kasim emphasised that compliance with Perkeso's statutory requirements is a key licensing condition for aviation service providers.

Perkeso group chief executive officer Datuk Seri Mohammed Azman Aziz Mohammed revealed that the organisation had safeguarded over 800 aviation industry employees from job losses by disbursing more than RM13mil under the Wage Subsidy Programme.
