Ministry of Labour Warns Public Against Malador Traveling Agency and Taju Holdings

The Ministry of Employment, Labour and Social Security has issued a public warning against two unlicensed recruitment agencies Taju Holdings Recruitment & Travel Agency and Malador Traveling Agency circulating job advertisements on social media.

According to the Ministry, the agencies claim to be recruiting bike riders, carpenters, welders, and housekeepers for a logistics company in Dubai. However, both agencies lack the required authorization and licensing from the Ministry to conduct legal overseas recruitment, in violation of Part II, Section 5 (1) of the Overseas Employment and Migrant Workers Act No. 12 of 2023.

The Ministry emphasized that over the years, it has been granting licenses only to agencies that meet the required standards to ensure safe, orderly, and regulated migration for Sierra Leoneans seeking employment abroad.
