Can an employee in Malaysia claim EIS after resigning?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Generally, an employee cannot claim EIS after resigning voluntarily. The scheme is meant to support those who lose employment involuntarily, such as through retrenchment or closure of the business, not resignation or dismissal for serious misconduct.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">2. How can employees check if the employer is paying EIS contributions correctly?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Employees can check the payslip or payroll slip for the EIS contribution line each month. If the amount looks unusual or anything is unclear, they should ask the HR or payroll team for a simple statement of contributions and service dates. This gives a clear view of the record before they need to claim.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-buttons is-content-justification-center is-layout-flex wp-container-core-buttons-layout-1 wp-block-buttons-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-button\"><a class=\"wp-block-button__link has-green-background-color has-background wp-element-button\" href=\"https:\/\/bit.ly\/TimeTecHRNews\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Subscribe to Our Newsletter<\/a><\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Employment Insurance System, or EIS, is Malaysia\u2019s national employment insurance scheme for private sector employees.
