Lindung 24 (SKBBK) is PERKESO's new 24-hour accident protection contribution, at 0.75%, fully borne by the employee. AutoCount Payroll HRMS automatically calculates it for every employee from June 2026 payroll onward — no setup needed.

The new function is available only in the new UI. It is enabled by default for all employees.

Update (8 July 2026): Following a Cabinet decision, SKBBK contributions are now voluntary for Malaysian/local employees, effective immediately. The scheme remains mandatory for foreign workers.
