Abstract

In 2023, amidst the complexities of a volatile global economy, Indonesia demonstrated economic resilience, propelled by its dynamic workforce. This abstract synthesizes the intricate interplay between macroeconomic forces and employment trends within Indonesia, drawing from comprehensive data analyses and policy evaluations. The report encapsulates a year marked by economic recovery despite global headwinds such as the Russia-Ukraine conflict, inflation surges, and supply chain interruptions. With a predicted global growth of 3.6% by the IMF, Indonesia's economy experienced fluctuations but maintained a growth trajectory from Q2 2022 to Q2 2023. Labor force data indicates a predominance of the working-age population, signaling potential for sustained productivity and economic fortitude. The demographic composition, skewed towards a younger populace, underpins the vibrant labor market. Employment policies have been responsive to digitalization, globalization, and demographic transitions, focusing on skill development, vocational training, and job safety. Notably, vocational training for SMK graduates was prioritized to match industry requirements. Regulatory advancements aim to balance worker protections with corporate operational efficiency. Amidst COVID-19's lingering impact, policy adaptations were crucial to support workers and businesses, exemplifying Indonesia’s agility in times of crisis. The landscape of employment disputes, predominantly centered around termination, underscores the necessity for robust conflict resolution mechanisms. With 71.15% of industrial disputes tied to terminations, mediation emerged as the preferred dispute resolution strategy. Regional data unveiled disparities in job placements and complaints, spotlighting the need for equitable workforce distribution and grievance redressal mechanisms. The report concludes that Indonesia's labor policies and employment conditions are dynamically evolving, poised to sculpt a robust, inclusive, and sustainable labor market landscape.

Abstract

Rural MSMEs have a small business scale in terms of capital, labor, market orientation, and limited technology adoption so Dinas Koperasi and UKM DIY (Department of Cooperatives and SMEs of the Special Region of Yogyakarta) implement MSMEs empowerment policy through the Desa-Preneur Program. The involvement of various stakeholders has been attempted, but this program has not fully targeted all Sidoarum MSME actors. This study discusses the process of collaborative governance in the implementation of the Desa-Preneur Program in Sidoarum Village, Yogyakarta. The research uses a qualitative descriptive method with primary data obtained from interviews, and secondary data collected through documentation and literature. The result showed that collaborative governance indicators have not been fully implemented. The role of lurah as program leader has not been maximized in carrying out the role as a program leader. Not all MSMEs actors participate in mentoring routinely and village economic institutions have not been formed. Several program achievements have been fulfilled, but still require consistent implementation of learning outcomes. The researchers suggest that village government to have more concern bridging out the provincial government and community in term of Desa-Preneur Program implementation. Institutional strengthening of BUMDes and cooperatives is important as a place of collaboration between stakeholders. Desa-Preneur Program in Sidoarum Village must be synergized with other programs and needs to involve other government institutions that support local MSMEs empowerment.

Abstract

This policy analysis evaluates the implementation of Law No. 1 of 1970 on Occupational Safety in Indonesia, focusing on its effectiveness, challenges, and relevance in the Industry 4.0 era. With technological advancements and changing work conditions such as remote work and automation, the law is considered inadequate to address emerging risks. Using a qualitative approach, the analysis examines the legal framework, regulatory overlaps between the Ministry of Manpower and the Ministry of Health, and the effectiveness of field inspections. Findings reveal significant challenges in the law's implementation. Workplace safety inspections are suboptimal due to limited numbers and quality of inspectors and insufficient use of technology in monitoring. Several studies highlight how decentralized labor inspections at the provincial level lead to poor coordination and resource allocation. Additionally, penalties such as a maximum fine of IDR 100,000 fail to deter violators effectively. Recommendations include revising Law No. 1/1970 to address modern challenges, increasing the number and capacity of occupational safety inspectors, and adopting sensor-based real-time monitoring technologies. Stronger administrative sanctions, as seen in ISO 45001 standards, are necessary to enhance compliance. Training and awareness programs should also target SMEs with low compliance levels, ensuring improved workplace safety across industries.

Abstract

The labor inspection system in Indonesia plays a vital role in ensuring compliance with labor standards, protecting workers' rights, and creating a safe and productive work environment. However, its implementation faces numerous challenges, such as the limited number of labor inspectors, ineffective central-regional coordination, and minimal budget allocation. With an actual ratio of 1:57,000 formal workers—far below the ILO standard of 1:20,000—the labor inspection system remains suboptimal. This study aims to analyze the problems within the decentralized inspection system, evaluate the potential of a centralized inspection model, and formulate strategies and a roadmap for implementation. Using qualitative and quantitative approaches, including interviews, focus group discussions (FGD), and literature reviews, the study finds that a centralized labor inspection system is more effective in improving inspection standards, resource distribution, and cross-regional coordination. Benchmarking functional roles such as Family Planning Counselors and Mining Inspectors supports this recommendation. Implementation strategies include regulatory revisions, increasing the number of inspectors, improving competencies, and ensuring adequate budget provision through the national budget (APBN). A medium-term roadmap (2025–2029) has been developed to ensure a gradual and sustainable transition.
