Gig economy platform providers have been given between three and six months to integrate their systems with the Social Security Organisation (PERKESO) following the enforcement of the Gig Workers Act 2025.

Human Resources Minister Datuk Seri R. Ramanan said the government is taking a pragmatic approach by allowing the industry time to adjust, particularly in terms of technical implementation.

00:00Hi, WC. I just want to check this issue.
00:03Can you introduce yourself first?
00:04Okay, I'm Vanessa from DH.
00:08I want to find out more about the integration of
00:12Perkiso's system into the platform apps.
00:15First of all, I understand the industry said
00:18that they need time for the integration
00:20for the technical front.
00:22And when people were able to read off much,
00:26so they need the time.
00:27So, what is there going to be a way to learn more about that?
00:30Okay, I will answer that question.
00:32Actually, Perkiso is here,
00:33but if we look at my skills,
00:35is it okay or is it okay?
00:38Actually, we have given them notice
00:41March 2025.
00:43All platform.
00:44Am I correct, Adrian?
00:45March 2025.
00:47Guess number one.
00:48Number two, we have also had many sessions
00:52together with them on discussing the matter.
00:55Our last session, I also said,
00:58we have a three to six months window.
01:01You know, in everything that we want to do in life,
01:04when there's change, we need time to adapt.
01:08As long as you are taking those necessary steps to adapt,
01:13and those are some things that we can see
01:16which we are monitoring closely,
01:18it is perfectly fine for you to take that little bit
01:21of three to six months monitoring.
01:24We are not going to go on a witch hunt
01:25and immediately go after you
01:27if you are not doing it tomorrow.
01:29But we have given ample amount of time.
01:31We are still being reasonable by giving that period of time.
01:35But when an act comes into play,
01:37it has to be enforced and it has to be taken seriously.
