<![CDATA[This research examines the legal protection of women workers following the enactment of Law Number 6 of 2023 on Job Creation, particularly regarding reproductive rights, protection from discrimination, and termination of employment. Although the regulation continues to recognize women workers’ rights, several amendments to labor provisions raise concerns about legal certainty and the effectiveness of protection. This study aims to analyze the legal framework governing women workers’ protection under Law Number 6 of 2023 and its conformity with the principles of legal certainty, justice, and gender equality. This research uses normative legal methods with statutory, conceptual, and case approaches. Legal materials consisting of primary, secondary, and tertiary sources were analyzed qualitatively using theories of legal certainty, legal protection, justice, and gender equality. The results show that the law still provides protection through provisions on menstrual leave, pregnancy, maternity leave, miscarriage, wage rights, and prohibition of termination due to reproductive conditions. However, changes related to Fixed-Term Employment Agreements (PKWT), outsourcing, and termination of employment have not fully guaranteed legal certainty and substantive protection. Strengthening implementing regulations, labor supervision, and gender equality principles is therefore required to ensure comprehensive protection of women workers’ rights.]]>
