This is a self-check, not an exam or a certificate.

Why check this now?

Find your gaps before an audit or a review does.

When a dismissal or dispute reaches the Industrial Court, missing documents, late filings or weak witnesses can decide the outcome. Knowing the Industrial Relations Act 1967, the court rules and how to build the case lets you support your counsel and protect the organisation.

What does the assessment ask?

Rate each statement from Not yet to Always. These are the statements, by area.

Case assessment and planning

  1. When a case is referred to the Industrial Court, I review the facts, documents and risks with management straight away.
  2. I understand the main issues the court looks at, such as whether misconduct was proven and whether dismissal was with just cause.
  3. I plan the case with a timeline, budget and the people responsible for each task.
  4. I agree with management whether to defend, settle or seek a further settlement before the hearing.

Documents and witnesses

  1. I can find the full employment file, including the contract, warnings, inquiry notes and termination letter, quickly.
  2. I prepare the bundle of documents in the order the lawyer and court need.
  3. I identify witnesses early, make sure they are available and help prepare their witness statements.
  4. I keep track of the filing dates and directions the court gives.

Hearing and award follow-up

  1. I brief the company's lawyer fully and check their advice with management in writing.
  2. When an award is made, I act on it within the time it sets.
  3. I get legal advice quickly on any challenge to an award, since the time limits are short.

Evaluation and reporting

  1. I keep a register of all court cases with status, next dates, costs and possible exposure.
  2. After each case, I review what went well and what to change in our disciplinary practice.
  3. I report litigation status, costs and lessons to management regularly.

Short answers to what people ask first.

How is my score worked out?

You rate each statement from Not yet (0) to Always (3). Your score is the percentage of the maximum points, and your lowest scoring section shows which course to look at first.

Does a high score mean I am certified?

No. This is a self-check of your current practice, not part of the Certifyd Employee Relations Litigation Manager assessment. The certification is earned by completing its core courses and assessment.

Is this legal advice?

No. It is a practice self-check for the people who support a case. For any specific case, follow your lawyer's advice.

Who is this Readiness Check for?

Employee relations managers, HR managers and in-house staff who prepare or manage Industrial Court cases in Malaysia.

Do you store my answers?

Not until you ask for your report. Until then your answers stay in this browser. After you confirm your email, they are kept with your report and you can delete them from any email we send.

What happens after the assessment?
