How to Opt Out of PERKESO SKBB (LINDUNG 24 Jam) Contributions
The PERKESO SKBB (LINDUNG 24 Jam) scheme allows Malaysian employees to opt out of contributions if they choose not to participate. Below is a step-by-step guide to help you through the process:
Online Opt-Out Process
Access the Portal: Log in to the official PERKESO/SOCSO portal for LINDUNG 24 Jam. Use your existing PERKESO ASSIST credentials or register for a new account if you don’t have one.
Submit the Declaration: Locate and complete the "Notis Pelepasan Liabiliti" (Liability Waiver Declaration) for the LINDUNG 24 Jam scheme.
Save Confirmation: After submitting the declaration, download and save the confirmation document for your records.
Notify Payroll: Share a copy of the confirmation document with your HR or payroll department to ensure deductions are stopped.
In-Person Opt-Out Process
If you cannot access the online portal, you can opt out in person:
Visit a PERKESO office or counter.
Bring necessary identification documents.
Complete the opt-out process by submitting the required forms.
Important Notes
If you do not submit an opt-out declaration, your enrollment and monthly deductions will continue.
You can rejoin the scheme later, and coverage will resume once contributions restart.
The opt-out process applies only to Malaysian employees. Foreign employees are mandatorily enrolled under existing legal requirements.
Are Contributions Mandatory?
Local Employees: Contributions to the LINDUNG 24 Jam scheme are voluntary for Malaysian employees. You can choose whether to participate.
Foreign Employees: Contributions remain mandatory for foreign employees as per legal requirements.
By following the steps outlined above, Malaysian employees can successfully opt out of the PERKESO SKBB (LINDUNG 24 Jam) scheme if they wish to stop payroll deductions.
