The research method used is a normative legal approach. Through analysis of various legal regulations, court decisions, and related literature, this research seeks a comprehensive understanding of the concept of employment law and its relevance in overcoming the challenges faced. The novelty of this research lies in its holistic approach, integrating social justice, proactive prevention, technology use, and worker participation in employment law reforms to prevent employer abuse, ensuring comprehensive and fair protection for all workers. The research results show that labour law plays a crucial role in ensuring social justice in the work environment and in carrying out legal reforms.
