Legal politics of law number 11 Of 2020 concerning job creation in the labor legal aspects

It would appear that the negotiating interests of the government and employers are woven into the policy direction of Law Number 11 of 2020 about Job Creation. Consequently, the final legal document satisfies no standards other than problematic and politically motivated ones. Legislatively, Law No. 11 of 2020 Concerning Job Creation is flawed, but there are also a number of problematic items at the level of normative substance. Consider the following: the repeal of Article 59 of the Manpower Law, which dealt with PKWT; the modification of Article 151 that could lead to unilateral layoffs; and the wages governed by Article 88. Law No. 11 of 2020 offers the formation of regulations through the omnibus method to overcome the problem of regulatory obesity, overlapping authority and long bureaucratic flows. The aim is to simplify the business sector and licensing which is expected to attract the interest of domestic and foreign investors. Legal politics surrounding Law No. 11 of 2011 on Job Creation, particularly as it pertains to industrial relations and the law's ramifications, is the issue that this article seeks to address. This study employs a conceptual and statutory approach to research, which is typical of juridical-normative studies. According to this article's conclusions, the Job Creation Law's legal politics in the area of industrial relations just satisfy political regulations, rather than workers' rights and interests. Law 11 of 2020, which deals with employment, has multiple problematic clauses that address issues including pay, layoffs, PKWT, and more. Since faulty standards can hurt workers at the substantive level, the Job Creation Law cannot solve industrial relations difficulties.

Abstract

It would appear that the negotiating interests of the government and employers are woven into the policy direction of Law Number 11 of 2020 about Job Creation. Consequently, the final legal document satisfies no standards other than problematic and politically motivated ones. Legislatively, Law No. 11 of 2020 Concerning Job Creation is flawed, but there are also a number of problematic items at the level of normative substance. Consider the following: the repeal of Article 59 of the Manpower Law, which dealt with PKWT; the modification of Article 151 that could lead to unilateral layoffs; and the wages governed by Article 88. Law No. 11 of 2020 offers the formation of regulations through the omnibus method to overcome the problem of regulatory obesity, overlapping authority and long bureaucratic flows. The aim is to simplify the business sector and licensing which is expected to attract the interest of domestic and foreign investors. Legal politics surrounding Law No. 11 of 2011 on Job Creation, particularly as it pertains to industrial relations and the law's ramifications, is the issue that this article seeks to address. This study employs a conceptual and statutory approach to research, which is typical of juridical-normative studies. According to this article's conclusions, the Job Creation Law's legal politics in the area of industrial relations just satisfy political regulations, rather than workers' rights and interests. Law 11 of 2020, which deals with employment, has multiple problematic clauses that address issues including pay, layoffs, PKWT, and more. Since faulty standards can hurt workers at the substantive level, the Job Creation Law cannot solve industrial relations difficulties.
