Technical Skills in Developing the Internal Regulations of Enterprises

16-17 January 2016

The Cambodian Labor Law was developed to provide a general guideline for every enterprise to follow; it was not intended to respond to every specific need of an enterprise. One size will never fit all.

It is worth noting that article 24 of the Labor Law requires every enterprise to develop the Internal Regulations within 3 months after the opening.  Any enterprise failing to comply with this legal requirement will be subject to a fine from 4,00,000 Riels to 12,00,000 Riels.  

More importantly, the Arbitration Council has ruled that disciplinary action applied to workers must be proportionate to the severity of misconduct and be consistent with the company’s Internal Regulations. In addition, article 6(2) of Prakas no. 194/14 MoLVT on the Working Condition and the rule of the Occupational Health and Safety for Entertainment Service Enterprises also provides that the employers or their representatives, who want to impose any sanctions on their employees, shall specify those sanctions in the Internal Regulations or Collective Bargaining Agreement.

Due to above reasons, each enterprise should develop the Internal Regulations to fill in the loopholes of the Labor Law. And this Internal Regulations should be as prescriptive as possible. Without the Internal Regulations, the enterprise will be subject to a fine and may not be able to take disciplinary actions against the employees when necessary.

In order to enable the enterprises to avoid this fine as well as to help them develop the Internal Regulations, 3E Advisory and Training organizes this practical training workshop to share our practical knowledge and hands-on experiences on how to develop a good Internal Regulations.
