What is a SLA 8x5?

This document template is designed for businesses operating in Malaysia that require a structured service level agreement for business-hours support (SLA 8x5).

The agreement incorporates Malaysian legal requirements, including provisions from the Contracts Act 1950, Electronic Commerce Act 2006, and where applicable, the Personal Data Protection Act 2010. The document establishes clear service metrics, response times, and remedies while aligning with Malaysian business practices and working hour regulations. It's commonly used for IT services, professional services, and business support functions where service availability during standard business hours (8 hours per day, 5 days per week) is sufficient for business operations.
