Anak merupakan amanah dan generasi penerus bangsa yang harus memperoleh perlindungan secara optimal dari segala bentuk eksploitasi, termasuk eksploitasi ekonomi melalui pekerjaan yang dapat mengganggu tumbuh kembangnya. Meskipun hukum Indonesia telah mengatur perlindungan anak melalui Undang-Undang Nomor 35 Tahun 2014 tentang Perubahan atas Undang-Undang Nomor 23 Tahun 2002 tentang Perlindungan Anak dan Undang-Undang Nomor 13 Tahun 2003 tentang Ketenagakerjaan, masih ditemukan rendahnya pemahaman anak dan masyarakat mengenai hak-hak anak dalam dunia kerja. Kegiatan penyuluhan hukum ini bertujuan meningkatkan pengetahuan dan kesadaran hukum anak-anak di Panti Sosial Anak Tawangmangu mengenai hak anak, batasan pekerjaan yang diperbolehkan bagi anak, serta perlindungan hukum terhadap praktik eksploitasi anak. Metode yang digunakan berupa ceramah, diskusi interaktif, studi kasus, dan evaluasi melalui pre-test dan post-test. Hasil penyuluhan menunjukkan adanya peningkatan pemahaman peserta mengenai hak-hak anak, ketentuan pekerja anak, dan mekanisme perlindungan hukum apabila terjadi pelanggaran hak anak. Penyuluhan hukum ini diharapkan mampu membangun kesadaran hukum sejak dini sehingga anak-anak dapat memahami hak dan kewajibannya serta terhindar dari berbagai bentuk eksploitasi ekonomi dan pelanggaran hak anak.

The protection of workers’ rights represents a constitutional mandate within Indonesia’s rule of law framework. Although the national labor law system provides a civil litigation mechanism through the Industrial Relations Court to resolve disputes, violations of workers’ rights still frequently occur in practice. This study aims to analyze, from normative and theoretical perspectives, the protection of workers’ rights through civil lawsuit mechanisms and to evaluate their effectiveness in achieving substantive justice. The research applies a normative juridical method using statutory, conceptual, and case approaches to examine relevant legal provisions and their implementation. The findings reveal that the civil litigation mechanism provides a clear legal basis for workers to pursue claims and defend their rights. However, its effectiveness in practice remains limited due to several challenges, including structural constraints within the legal system, complex procedural requirements, and unequal bargaining power between workers and employers. These conditions often hinder workers from obtaining fair outcomes. Therefore, policy reform, simplification of legal procedures, and stronger access to justice are necessary to ensure more effective and substantive protection of workers’ rights in Indonesia.

This research examines the urgency of implementing the principle of joint liability in outsourcing labor relations in Indonesia following the enactment of Law Number 6 of 2023 concerning Job Creation. The primary issue addressed is the imbalance in the protection of workers' normative rights when service providers default, while user companies tend to distance themselves from legal responsibility due to the absence of a direct contractual employment relationship. The research methodology employed is juridical normative, utilizing a statutory approach and a conceptual approach. The results indicate that the flexibility of the outsourcing system in recent regulations often overlooks aspects of job security and worker welfare. The application of the joint liability principle is viewed as a fair legal solution to ensure that fundamental worker rights, such as minimum wages, social security, and compensation, remain fulfilled despite financial constraints on the service provider's side. The integration of responsibility between provider and user companies not only provides a guarantee for the workforce but also encourages the creation of a more ethical and responsible business climate. The research conclusion emphasizes that to achieve a balance between business efficiency and labor protection, national regulations need to clarify the position of collective responsibility in outsourcing practices in Indonesia.

Abstract. This study aims to examine the causes, forms, and strategies for combating violence against female Indonesian migrant workers (PMI) from a legal, sociological, and gender perspective. The background of this research is based on the vulnerability of female PMI to various forms of physical, psychological, sexual, and economic violence, which occurs from the pre-placement stage to the post-placement stage, as well as the long-term impact on mental health, human rights, and socio-economic reintegration. The method used is empirical legal with primary data collection through in-depth interviews with female PMI victims of violence and accompanying institutions, as well as secondary data in the form of literature reviews, laws and regulations, and scientific publications. The analysis was conducted using descriptive qualitative methods, integrating human rights theory, Feminist Legal Theory, and international migration policy. The results of the study show that the vulnerability of female migrant workers is caused by economic factors, education, patriarchal culture, non-transparent recruitment processes, the characteristics of work in the informal sector, power imbalances with employers, and weak legal protection in the destination country. The forms of violence experienced include beatings, sexual harassment, threats, social isolation, wage withholding, and structural exploitation practices. Protection efforts implemented include preventive approaches through training, legal education, legal document guarantees, and assistance from law enforcement agencies, as well as repressive approaches through action against perpetrators of violence and bilateral cooperation with destination countries. This study emphasizes the importance of comprehensive and sustainable protection for female Indonesian migrant workers, covering all stages of labor migration as well as strengthening digital-based monitoring systems, officer capacity, and cross-sector collaboration to ensure the safety, dignity, and fulfillment of the human rights of female Indonesian migrant workers.  

Termination of employment is one of the most common occurrences in industrial relations. In practice, the implementation of workers' rights after termination, particularly those related to severance pay, does not always proceed in accordance with applicable legal provisions or mutually agreed terms. This study aims to analyze the settlement of remaining severance pay claims based on an agreement between the workers and PT. Nusa Halmahera Minerals. This study uses a normative juridical method with a Data was obtained through literature studies, legislation, and mutual agreement documents. The results of the study show that there are delays and inconsistencies in the implementation of severance pay as stated in the mutual agreement. The settlement was mostly non-litigious through mediation at the Manpower Office, but did not result in the full fulfillment of rights. This shows the weak bargaining position of workers in the implementation of collective labor agreements, as well as the need to strengthen legal mechanisms for sanctions against companies that fail to fulfill their obligations.

Indonesia is a country with a high level of labor-related issues, particularly in relation to the protection and fulfillment of workers’ rights. Common problems include termination of employment, unpaid wages, and inadequate severance payments. One such case is the bankruptcy petition filed against PT. Setiaji Mandiri, which serves as the focus of this study. The objective of this research is to analyze the legal considerations behind the Commercial Court’s decision to grant the bankruptcy request and its implications for labor rights. This study employs a normative juridical method by analyzing relevant legislation and court rulings, particularly referring to Law No. 37 of 2004 on Bankruptcy and Suspension of Debt Payment Obligations, and Law No. 2 of 2004 on Industrial Relations Dispute Settlement. The findings show that PT. Setiaji Mandiri had indeed made efforts to settle its financial obligations, but these efforts were deemed insufficient by the court, leading to the acceptance of the bankruptcy petition. However, a key issue that emerged was the absence of debt registration with the Industrial Relations Court (PHI), which is mandated by law in cases involving employment disputes. According to the prevailing labor laws, the PHI must first determine the amount of severance pay owed to employees, which can then be used as a reference in bankruptcy proceedings. The study concludes that there was a procedural oversight in the handling of labor claims in this bankruptcy case. It emphasizes the importance of adhering to legal mechanisms that protect workers’ rights and recommends stricter coordination between commercial and labor courts to prevent similar issues in the future.

This study uses a qualitative method to analyze criminal law enforcement against violations of workers’ rights, especially cases of worker neglect based on Law Number 13 of 2003 concerning Manpower. The focus of this study is to examine how the implementation of criminal law is applied in handling cases of worker neglect, as well as the effectiveness of legal protection provided to workers whose rights are violated. Through a descriptive analytical approach, data were collected from various sources, including interviews with related parties and legal document studies, in order to obtain a comprehensive picture of the obstacles and challenges in law enforcement in the field of employment. The results of the study indicate that although Law Number 13 of 2003 has clearly regulated the rights and obligations of workers and employers, there are still obstacles in its implementation, especially in terms of supervision and enforcement of criminal sanctions against violations. This study recommends increasing the role of labor inspectors and optimizing law enforcement mechanisms to ensure effective protection of workers’ rights.

Despite existing regulations, violations of labor rights frequently occur due to weak enforcement. Using a qualitatibe descriptive method through literature review, this research highlights issues such as the PT GNI case that demonstrate inadequate preventive and enforcement actions by labor inspectors. The study recommends strengthening labor inspection through preventive and repressive measures, the use of technology, community-based monitoring, and the implementation of transparent and accountable oversight principles. These findings aim to provide recommendations for the government to enhance the labor inspection system for better protection and legal enforcement for workers.

The number of layoffs during Covid-19 due to the presence of the Large-Scale Social Restrictions (PSBB) policy not only has an impact on the health sector, but also has a wide impact on social and economic coverage, especially in the formal and informal employment sector. One of the main problems that arises is the increasing cases of Termination of Employment (PHK) which causes economic uncertainty for workers and their families. The researcher is encouraged to conduct an in-depth analysis of this condition after the enactment of the Job Creation Law, especially in the perspective of fulfilling the rights of workers affected by the pandemic. This study uses a normative legal research method with a legal legal approach, focusing on the employment aspect. Data was obtained through literature studies which included primary sources in the form of laws and regulations, as well as secondary sources in the form of literature, journals, scientific articles, and relevant court decisions. The results of the study show that there are still differences in implementation in fulfilling the rights of workers who have been laid off during the pandemic. Based on the decisions analyzed, it was found that there are still cases where workers do not get their rights in full, either related to severance pay, service award money, or other compensation money that should be guaranteed by law. These findings indicate that the role of judges in deciding layoff cases is very important to ensure maximum justice and protection for workers. Therefore, the author recommends that judges in deciding cases related to layoffs be guided by the principles of labor law, the principles of social justice, and applicable laws and regulations.

This research examines legal protection of workers' rights in Indonesia. This study uses a qualitative and normative approach, analyzing applicable labor law. Even though Indonesia has a comprehensive legal framework, there is still a gap between regulation and implementation. This research identifies three main aspects of legal protection: economic, social, and technical. This study also found barriers to implementation, including regulatory factors, culture and company capabilities. This research recommends the government's active role in improving regulations, supervision and law enforcement, as well as building awareness of all parties regarding the responsibilities and roles of individuals in building harmonious and just industrial relations

This study aims to analyze the legal protection of workers' rights due to unilateral termination of employment (PHK) in outsourcing companies in Gorontalo City. The focus of the study covers two main aspects, namely the form of fulfillment of workers' rights affected by layoffs and the inhibiting factors of the Gorontalo City Manpower, Cooperatives, and SMEs Office in providing legal protection. The research method used is an empirical legal approach with data collection through interviews, document studies, and observations. The results of the study indicate that the fulfillment of workers' rights includes severance pay, long-service bonus money, and replacement money in accordance with applicable regulations. In addition, the relevant agencies play a role in providing mediation services and facilitating dispute resolution. However, the implementation of this legal protection faces various obstacles, such as low legal awareness of workers, limited human resources and budget in the Manpower Office, and weak supervision of outsourcing companies. This study emphasizes the need to strengthen labor regulations and increase the effectiveness of supervision to ensure optimal protection of workers' rights. The results of the study are expected to be a reference for policy makers and related parties in improving the legal protection mechanism for workers affected by layoffs.

In Indonesia, the Job Creation Law has had a major impact on workers, especially in terms of policies that tend to favor companies. The emphasis on labor flexibility and the ease with which companies can restructure can reduce job security, wages, and workers' rights. Inequalities in labor contract negotiations arise as the power differential between companies and workers widens. Thus, modern slavery practices often emerge to make workers feel marginalized. This is due to the lack of legal protection, which is detrimental to their health. Therefore, this study aims to provide an explanation of the effect of government regulation in the form of omnibus law and investment policies on the welfare of workers in terms of wages and working time. To achieve this goal, this research uses a political economy perspective with two derivative theories, namely the theory of oligarchy and neoliberalism. Then, in collecting data, this research will use the big data analytics method that will collect data containing tweets from Indonesians on social media X that contain certain keywords. This method consists of several stages consisting of data cleaning processing, data transformation into tabular form, and data visualization. Besides big data, this research also uses literature review methods to collect data from books, journals, and articles related to this research topic.
