Legal Protection for Workers Receiving Wages below the Minimum Wage Provisions at the District/City Level Post the Job Creation Law

Abstract

This research aims to analyze the legal protection for workers receiving wages below the minimum wage after the enactment of the Omnibus Law on Job Creation. With the regulatory changes, there is a potential decrease in the wage levels for workers at the district/city level. Therefore, this study seeks to delve into the impact of legislative changes on the rights and welfare of workers, particularly those affecting minimum wage standards. The research method employed is normative legal research, involving an analysis of relevant legislation and a literature review on the impact of the Omnibus Law on Job Creation on worker wages. The findings indicate that these regulatory changes have a significant impact on workers' rights, especially those receiving wages below the minimum standard. Furthermore, the study identifies several challenges in the legal protection of workers under minimum wage provisions, including the expansion of company authority in setting wages. Therefore, it is recommended to implement policy and regulatory improvements that prioritize the interests of workers to ensure adequate legal protection amid changes in the labor market structure. This research is expected to contribute to a deeper understanding of the changes in working conditions post-Omnibus Law on Job Creation and their implications for workers' rights. Consequently, constructive solutions are anticipated to enhance legal protection for workers receiving wages below the minimum wage at the district/city level.
