Abstract

Child labor remains a significant social issue in Indonesia, primarily due to poverty, limited access to education, and weak social supervision and rehabilitation. This situation forces children to work to survive, yet many do not receive adequate protection, particularly regarding working hours. This study analyzes the regulation of child working hours in Law No. 13/2003 and compares it with Malaysia’s Act 350 (1966) to formulate recommendations for legal improvements in Indonesia, using a normative legal research method based on legislation and comparative analysis of primary and secondary legal sources. Child labor regulations in Indonesia remain limited, non-specific, and create legal uncertainty, especially concerning working hours, rest periods, and prohibitions on night work. In contrast, Malaysia provides detailed rules on working hour limits, working days, rest periods, and types of work permitted for children and adolescents, accompanied by a strict licensing mechanism. Indonesia needs to strengthen regulations and oversight to ensure more comprehensive legal protection for child workers
