GIVING REWARD TO EXCELLENT MBI FIELD STAFF – JULY 2025

IPOH, 14 AUGUST 2025 (THURSDAY) – Ipoh City Council (MBI) continues to recognise the contribution of field staff who are the backbone of the city’s cleanliness and management services by giving Rewards to excellent performers every month.

This initiative, introduced by the Ipoh Mayor, aims to enhance motivation and work spirit among field personnel, while ensuring that Ipoh City remains clean, beautiful and prosperous.

The Public Health and Municipal Services Department is responsible for implementing solid waste management and public cleaning works, including garbage collection at council-owned public markets, hawker centres, food courts, rural domestic waste collection (PPSD), street sweeping, clearing of garden and bulk waste, clearing of illegally dumped waste and maintaining cleanliness at public locations.

The selection of recipients for this Reward focuses on field staff from the posts of General Service Assistant, Vehicle Driver and Supervisor who meet strict criteria, including being free from disciplinary action, having an excellent attendance record with no sick leave or annual leave in the relevant month, not being late for work, and consistently performing their duties well. The final evaluation is determined by the departmental panel.

For the month of July 2025, five recipients were selected according to the designated zones:

Old Town Zone: Masitah Ali (Employee No. 12755) and Azhar Saari (Employee No. 13706)

New Town Zone: Hamiza Purji (Employee No. 14243), Mohamed Sefine Mohamed Salleh (Employee No. 13709) and Elizabeth a/p Arul (Employee No. 13544)

Each recipient received a Certificate of Excellence and cash of RM100 credited directly into their respective bank accounts. The recipients’ names and pictures are also displayed at strategic locations frequently visited by the public as a gesture of appreciation.

The Mayor hopes that this reward will be a catalyst for the work spirit of other field staff, besides fostering healthy competition to continue providing the best service for the well-being of Ipoh residents.
