A well-implemented minimum wage can increase employment opportunities and support industrial growth. Therefore, policymakers must consider local economic conditions and industry characteristics when setting minimum wage levels. This study analyzes the implementation process of minimum wage policy in Batu city. In addition, this study also identifies the impact of the policy on worker welfare and economic dynamics and evaluates the challenges and opportunities in implementing the minimum wage policy. This study is qualitative. Data analysis in this study uses a flow model validated through triangulation techniques to ensure accuracy and reliability. The results of this study indicate that 46% of employers comply with the minimum wage policy in Batu City.

Therefore, the Batu City government must actively disseminate the minimum wage policy with more optimal supervision.]]>
