Abstract

Industrial relations dispute resolution is an important issue in the world of labor that requires the right legal approach. This study aims to analyze the role of advocates in resolving industrial relations disputes at the Medan City Manpower Office, especially in the mediation and litigation stages. The research method used is a qualitative approach with data collection through in-depth interviews, observations, and document studies. The data were analyzed descriptively by relating them to relevant theories and legal frameworks. The results of the study show that advocates have a strategic role in helping the parties to the dispute understand their rights and obligations, both through legal consultation, assistance in mediation, and legal representation in the litigation process at the Industrial Relations Court. In addition, advocates also contribute to the preparation of legal documents that support client claims. However, there are a number of obstacles faced by advocates, such as low legal understanding from the parties to the dispute, limited competence of mediators, and lack of supporting evidence. This obstacle often prolongs the duration of dispute resolution and reduces the effectiveness of mediation. This study concludes that the role of advocates is very important in creating a fair and efficient dispute resolution process. However, improvements are needed in the dispute resolution system, such as increasing legal literacy, training mediators, and optimizing mediation procedures. This finding is expected to contribute to the development of better industrial relations settlement practices, especially in the city of Medan.

Abstract

This study aims to examine the supervision strategy carried out by the Business Competition Supervisory Commission (ICC) against anti-competition practices that can harm the market and consumers. ICC has a very important role in maintaining healthy business competition through supervision, law enforcement, and policy recommendations. This study uses a qualitative approach with in-depth interview methods and document analysis related to the implementation of the business competition law. The results of the study show that ICC carries out supervision through a preventive, detective, and law enforcement approach. Preventive supervision is carried out through education to business actors, while detective supervision utilizes technology such as big data to detect anti-competitive practices. Although the law enforcement carried out by ICC has succeeded in cracking down on many violations, it is constrained by a deterrent effect that is still low due to the amount of sanctions that are not proportional to the profits obtained from these illegal practices. In addition, ICC also functions as a policy advisor to encourage the creation of regulations that support fair business competition. This research suggests the need to increase the capacity of technology and human resources, as well as revisions to the amount of sanctions so that they can be more effective in tackling anti-competitive practices in Indonesia.

Abstract

This study aims to analyze the application of Law Number 23 of 2004 concerning the Elimination of Domestic Violence (PKDRT) by the Deli Serdang City Resort Police (Polresta) in handling cases of domestic violence (KDRT). The method used is an empirical juridical approach with data collection through interviews, documentation studies, and direct observation. The results of the study show that the Deli Serdang Police have implemented procedural steps such as receiving reports, visum et repertum, and investigations. However, the implementation of the law has not been fully effective because informal mediation practices are still found that have the potential to reduce the deterrent effect for perpetrators and weaken legal protection for victims. Case data over the past five years (2020–2024) shows that physical violence is the most dominant form of domestic violence, while psychological and sexual violence is still rarely reported, indicating underreporting. The main obstacles in law enforcement include fear and dependence on victims, lack of witnesses, and family intervention. Judging from Lawrence M. Friedman's law enforcement theory, the weak structure and culture of law are obstacles in the implementation of the substance of the law. Meanwhile, from the perspective of legal protection theory, the authorities have not fully provided security and justice guarantees for victims. This study recommends the need to strengthen the victim protection system and the consistency of law enforcement without compromise to ensure legal certainty and justice.
