Is it worth it to pursue PhD?

I have finished my bachelor's degree in chemical engineering lately. Due to my high grades, my uni offers me a fast track PhD program. The semester will starts somewhen in October if I accept the offer. But, there is one thing I am very concern or worried about.

Is it really difficult to find a job after getting a PhD degree? Because my lecturer told me that most of the companies will look for fresh graduates with bachelor's degree rather than PhD graduates. Im also dont have any working experience. I heard the main reason they dont wanna hire PhD graduates is because of the minimum salary is higher under Akta Kerja (or Akta Buruh, Im not sure)? And they cant give lower salary as the minimum salary is fixed too under that Akta?

Btw, let's say I studied for PhD. Can I just find a job using my bachelor degree with its payscale without using my PhD degree? Or I cant because of that Akta?
