Communications Ministry studying best Socso contribution mechanism for stringers

 


The Communications Ministry is studying the best Socso contribution mechanism for freelance journalists or stringers, minister Fahmi Fadzil said.

For this purpose, he said the ministry will continue to hold discussions with Socso to ensure that stringers or contract journalists can contribute to and benefit from the organisation to ensure their social security.

For example, he said following a recent discussion between the ministry and Socso for the National Film Development Corporation Malaysia (Finas), a memorandum of understanding will be signed between Socso and Finas on April 23 to incorporate social security aspects into the standard contracts of filming personnel.

“The job of media practitioners is challenging, and there is indeed a need, especially for stringers, to contribute to Socso.

“I will follow up with more discussions to find the best contribution mechanisms,” he told reporters after extending donations from Tabung Kasih@Hawana to former media personnel today.
