Abstract

This study examines human rights protection in business practices in Indonesia, emphasizing the role of corporations in respecting, protecting, and redressing the rights of workers and communities. Although Indonesia has ratified international instruments such as the ICESCR and enacted sectoral laws such as Law No. 13 of 2003 concerning Manpower, Law No. 32 of 2009 concerning Environmental Protection, and the Job Creation Law, human rights violations remain rampant, including substandard wages, suppression of labor unions, violations of indigenous peoples' rights, and limited access to redress mechanisms. Using a normative-empirical approach, this study analyzes national laws and international standards through descriptive analysis. The findings indicate that wage and worker welfare policies serve as important indicators of respect for human rights, while corporate practices often prioritize economic efficiency over ethical obligations. This study underscores the urgent need to integrate the UN Guiding Principles on Business and Human Rights into Indonesia's legal framework.

Abstract

The absence of piercing the corporate veil doctrine in the Indonesian company law shows that the subsidiaries of such corporate groups are considered a separate legal personality, hence it is probably almost impossible to held the parent company liable for its subsidiaries’ legal actions under any conditions. This research adopted a normative legal research with a comparative law study method. The goal of this research is describe the implementation of piercing the corporate veil doctrine in Indonesia, US and UK, then to make the points of contribution of this doctrine to be regulated properly in Indonesia. In fact, piercing the corporate veil doctrine is implemented in Indonesia, although there was not any normative legal basis of the doctrine itself, whereas in US and UK, the doctrine is implemented and further developed through precedents. Therefore, since there is an evident relationship between a parent company and its subsidiary, whereby in certain cases the parent company can and should be held liable for the acts of its subsidiary, there should be a more explicit regulation regarding both corporate groups and piercing the corporate veil doctrine.
