Register with ESD and process via their system if your staff need Professional Passes

They provide a very good guide to the requirements

If your staff are going to receive Foreign Worker Employment Passes:

One more detail is Indian citizens with 6 month visa can only enter Malaysia for 30 days at a time but more than once during the validity. So staying more than 30 days means they are already illegal immigrants
