The company emphasizes that this initiative represents a significant investment in its workforce, ultimately aiming to bolster safety and the quality of service provided to the public.
With the addition of 100 new VEs, we can create technical job opportunities for Malaysians. It also strengthens our main mission to ensure every vehicle on the road complies with strict safety and environmental standards.
Mahmood Razak Bahman, CEO of Puspakom, stated that the addition of 100 new VEs will not only create technical job opportunities for Malaysians but also reinforce the company's core mission. This mission involves ensuring that all vehicles operating on the road adhere to stringent safety and environmental standards. He highlighted that even amidst economic challenges, Puspakom is prioritizing the development of its capabilities in areas critical to road user safety.
The expansion of the VE team is expected to yield several benefits, including shorter customer waiting periods and improved operational resilience during peak demand. It will also support the implementation of new service innovations planned for the year. Puspakom recognizes that sufficient inspection capacity is vital for vehicle owners and operators to meet mandatory inspection requirements without undue delays, thereby maintaining inspection quality and road safety standards.
In a challenging economic climate, Puspakom chooses to continue developing capabilities in the most important area for road user safety.
To support this recruitment drive, 23 candidates are currently enrolled in the Vehicle Examiner Intensive Program (VEIP). This structured training and certification program is designed to produce competent and professional VEs. Upon completion, they will be deployed to Puspakom branches and Mobile Truck Services (MTS) across the country to meet growing operational needs. The company offers a competitive salary, benefits, and a clear career development path, including professional certifications and exposure to the latest inspection technologies. Puspakom underscores that its examiners are at the forefront of ensuring the safety of families and all road users.
Our VEs are the front line helping to ensure the safety of families, fleet operators, and other road users.
