What is JTKSWK licensing?
JTKSWK, Jabatan Tenaga Kerja Sarawak, licenses private employment agencies operating in Sarawak. A licence is held by a company, never by an individual, and every licensed agency has a licence number that can be checked.
Sarawak
Who does it apply to?
Anyone engaging an employment or recruitment agency in Sarawak.
Key facts
- The licence is issued to the registered company. No individual holds a personal JTKSWK licence, so “licensed consultant” is not a real credential.
- Ask for the licence number and the exact registered company name, then check that the two match.
- A licence number alone proves nothing if the company name it belongs to is different from the one you are dealing with.
- Migratesafe’s licence is JTKSWK0042-C/24, held by Agensi Pekerjaan Migratesafe Sdn. Bhd. (1034872-A).
