<![CDATA[The right to decent work is a fundamental human right that applies to everyone without exception, including children. This is clearly stated in several Indonesian laws, such as Law No. 39 of 1999 concerning Human Rights, Law No. 13 of 2003 concerning Manpower, and Law No. 23 of 2002 in conjunction with Law No. 35 of 2014 concerning Children. Although many legal provisions aim to protect children from exploitation in the workplace, the situation still needs improvement due to a lack of effective implementation.
