Unfair Dismissal: Disputes may arise when an employee believes they have been unfairly terminated from their employment. This could involve allegations of wrongful dismissal, breach of contract, or termination without due process.

Discrimination: Discrimination based on race, gender, religion, age, disability, or other protected characteristics is prohibited by Malaysian law. Disputes may arise when an employee feels they have been subjected to discriminatory treatment in recruitment, promotion, job assignments, or other aspects of employment.

Wage Disputes: Issues related to wages, including unpaid salaries, unauthorized deductions, failure to pay overtime, or disputes over entitlement to benefits such as bonuses or allowances, can lead to employment law disputes.

Harassment and Bullying: Workplace harassment or bullying, whether of a sexual nature, verbal, physical, or emotional, can create a hostile work environment. Employees may file disputes against employers or coworkers for failing to address or prevent such behavior.

Contractual Disputes: Disputes may arise from disagreements over the terms and conditions of employment contracts, including disputes related to non-compete clauses, confidentiality agreements, or restrictive covenants.

Retrenchment and Redundancy: Disputes may occur when employers carry out retrenchment exercises or implement redundancy measures without following proper procedures or providing adequate compensation to affected employees.

Health and Safety: Employees have the right to work in a safe and healthy environment. Disputes may arise if employers fail to comply with occupational health and safety regulations, leading to workplace accidents, injuries, or illnesses.

Breach of Statutory Rights: Employees may file disputes if employers fail to comply with statutory requirements related to minimum wage, working hours, rest days, public holidays, annual leave, sick leave, maternity leave, or other employment standards mandated by Malaysian law.

Unlawful Deductions: Disputes may arise if employers make unauthorized deductions from employees' wages or fail to reimburse expenses incurred during the course of employment.

Trade Union Disputes: Disputes between employers and trade unions may arise regarding collective bargaining agreements, industrial action, union recognition, or unfair labor practices.
