Certified Payroll Practitioner: Administrations And Processing

This micro-credential prepares you to process payroll accurately and defensibly, by grounding every payroll decision in the applicable legal rules and compliance duties. You will work through scenario-based applications (eligibility tests, calculations, deadlines, documentation checks), with a strong emphasis on payroll as a compliance function, not just an administrative one.
This micro-credential is designed to equip learners with the foundational knowledge and practical skills required to manage payroll administration in Malaysia. The course focuses on the Employment Act 1955 (as amended in 2022), the Insolvency Act 1967, the EPF Act 1991, and other relevant statutory frameworks governing wages, benefits, and deductions.

Determine statutory coverage/eligibility (e.g., overtime and benefits eligibility rules), and apply the correct calculation base.
Apply wage-payment compliance requirements: timing and permitted methods (default bank transfer; strict requirements for any cash/cheque exception).
Process statutory deductions and identify what is lawful vs unlawful under the Employment Act framework (including the monthly deduction cap).
Administer statutory schemes, including SOCSO/PERKESO and EIS (noting the legal distinction between SOCSO schemes and the Employment Insurance System).
Administer Employee Provident Fund (EPF) compliance: payslips, contribution calculations, remittance deadlines, and wage items subject to contributions.
Apply “high-risk” payroll decision rules (e.g., deductions, suspension, demotion, bankruptcy directions, withholding tax awareness, medical leave rules) using a structured “code of compliance” mindset.
