Abstract

Law No. 35 of 2014 concerning Amendments to Law No. 23 of 2002 concerning Child Protection explicitly prohibits the exploitation of minors. However, child labor remains a significant issue in Indonesia. This study examines how child labor protection laws are implemented, prioritizing law enforcement and policy reform. The study found that the implementation of Law No. 35/2014 faces obstacles such as weak cross-sectoral oversight, ineffective sanctions, and socio-economic factors in vulnerable areas such as North Sumatra. This was discovered using a normative legal approach and analysis of 2023-2025 BPS data. Violation cases have increased by 15% in the past three years, according to the findings. Therefore, increased criminal penalties, community-based rehabilitation programs, and strengthened coordination within the Ministry of Manpower and Social Affairs are necessary policy reforms. This study contributes to strengthening child protection laws in Indonesia.
