Sexual violence in the workplace is a serious violation of human rights and labor law, frequently experienced by working women in Indonesia. This study aims to analyze the role of the Manpower Office (Disnaker) as a supervisory agency in enforcing labor law, specifically Law No. 13 of 2003 concerning Manpower and Ministerial Regulation No. 2 of 2022 concerning the Prevention and Handling of Sexual Violence in the Workplace. Using a descriptive-analytical approach through a literature review, analysis of official documents from the Indonesian Ministry of Manpower and ILO reports, and case studies of industrial relations court decisions, this study evaluates the effectiveness of Disnaker in preventing, handling, and enforcing sanctions for sexual violence cases. The results indicate that Disnaker plays a crucial role in routine inspections, dispute mediation, and education, but faces challenges such as a lack of human resources, cultural stigma, and limited access in the informal sector. Empirical findings from case studies in several companies indicate a 25% increase in reported cases following Disnaker intervention, although the resolution rate remains low. The study's conclusions recommend policy reforms, such as increased budgets and collaboration with NGOs, to strengthen the protection of women workers. This research contributes to the labor law literature by providing practical insights for strengthening enforcement mechanisms in Indonesia.
