- conduct labour self-inspection (LSI) via the automated system (link here) twice a year, before (i) end of June, and (ii) end of December, starting from June 2022;
- comply with the 31 priority points provided in the Constraint Letters (please refer to Annex A of our Legal Update titled "The Notification on the Implementation of Labour Self Inspection Regime Via Automated System"), as failure to comply with any of such priority points will immediately subject the errant owner or director to fines; and

Non-compliance with the above obligations will subject the errant owners or directors of companies to fines or other forms of punishment as may be prescribed by law. MLVT may also institute legal action against them for non-compliance with the said obligations.
