A new study by the RE:CARE Project maps the pressures, inequities and policy gaps surrounding Malaysia’s care workforce, and what must change to protect it from burnout, mental health strain and retention challenges.

Astro Awani’s Melisa Idris speaks with Anis Farid, the principal investigator for the RE:CARE Project, and Shazana Agha, one of the projects co-principal investigators. This report is a part of the RE:CARE Project (Endemicity, care and gender: Towards developing resilience in Malaysia’s essential care workforce and infrastructure), an initiative led by researchers and personnel from the Women’s Aid Organisation, the University of Alberta and the University of Malaya, in collaboration with representatives of TalentCorp and the Ministry of Health.
