In Malaysia’s competitive job market, employee benefits are more than just perks — they’re a critical part of attracting and retaining top talent. From annual bonuses to paid leave, Malaysian employers are stepping up their game. But among the most valued and increasingly essential benefits is healthcare, especially annual health screenings.
Common Employee Benefits in Malaysia
Most companies in Malaysia offer a combination of the following benefits:
- Medical and Hospitalisation Coverage
A standard across most mid-sized and large employers, this includes panel clinics, specialist referrals, and hospitalisation insurance. - Annual Leave & Public Holidays
Employees typically enjoy 14–20 days of annual leave, plus gazetted public holidays. Some even offer replacement leave or flexible off-days. - EPF & SOCSO Contributions
Mandated by law, employers contribute to the Employees Provident Fund (EPF) and the Social Security Organisation (SOCSO) for employee retirement and social security. - Performance Bonuses & Increments
Many organisations tie bonuses to individual KPIs and company performance, often disbursed during year-end or festive seasons. - Maternity/Paternity Leave
In addition to government-mandated leave, some companies offer extended maternity/paternity days as part of family-friendly policies. - Flexible Work Arrangements
Hybrid working models, flexible hours, and work-from-home options have become mainstream benefits, especially post-pandemic.
The Rising Trend: Annual Health Screenings
One benefit now gaining momentum is annual health screenings. Employers are recognising that preventive care isn’t just good for employee wellbeing — it’s good for business.
According to recent workplace health surveys, more than 60% of Malaysian employees say they’d appreciate having regular health screenings included in their benefits package. Screenings help detect early signs of illness, reduce long-term medical costs, and support overall productivity.
Why Companies Are Prioritising Health Screening:
- Early Detection = Lower Costs
Identifying risks such as high blood pressure, diabetes, or cholesterol early can avoid costly complications later. - Boosts Employee Morale & Trust
Offering on-site screenings signals care and commitment to employees’ wellbeing. - Improves Productivity
Healthy employees are less likely to take sick leave, resulting in a more engaged and efficient workforce.
