SHAH ALAM, July 14 — Selangor Kerjaya (Selangor Jobs) aims to benefit 10,000 people in the state who lost their job due to the Covid-19 pandemic.
Menteri Besar Dato’ Seri Amirudin Shari said the Selangor Kerjaya retraining programme would cost the state RM58 million and will be implemented for three years.
“Through Selangor Kerjaya, a profiling system and database that takes into account the preferences, characteristics, competency and workforce skills in Selangor, will be able to match the industrial demand and fill up the post as well as manage Selangor talents more accurately,” said Amirudin.
Amirudin said this at the tabling of the state economic recovery plan during the State Legislative Assembly sitting here yesterday.
He added those who join the programme will be trained on new skills, upskilling and reskilling which are relevant to the Industrial 4.0.
