Effect of job experience and job performance among Indonesian warkforce

Malaysia is among the Association of Southeast
Asian Nations (ASEAN) countries that have the highest number
of Indonesian labour force. The inclusion of Indonesian work
force in Malaysia is one of the programs by the Indonesian
government that aims in helping these workers to gain better jobs
and at the same time improve the economy of the country. Here,
most of the Indonesian work force in Malaysia work in domestic
sectors (such as construction, plantation) and most of them lack
of industry-ready skilled workers in spite performance that are in
line with the scope of the task despite of having work experiences.
Besides that, it is necessary in ensuring that the Indonesian
labour force is industry-ready and competitive in order to o meet
the skill sets required by the ASEAN country. This paper
discussed the relationship between the Indonesian construction
sector work force’s experience and level of skills in Malaysia.
Hence, it is recommended that each Indonesian labour have at
least some experiences before entering the field of work,
especially abroad.
