<![CDATA[This study examines legal protection for the implementation of shift jumping working hours and its impact on workers’ health, using a comparative study between Indonesia and Turkey. It aims to analyze the legal arrangements governing shift work systems in both countries and formulate an ideal legal framework to provide occupational safety and health protection for workers. The method used is normative legal research with statutory, conceptual, and comparative approaches. The legal materials were analyzed prescriptively to answer the research questions. The results show that Indonesia’s shift work regulations are still general in nature and do not specifically regulate the phenomenon of shift jumping, creating a legal vacuum and uncertainty. Meanwhile, Turkey’s regulations are considered more comprehensive because they provide clearer limits on working hours, rest periods, and worker health protection within shift work systems. The comparison indicates that shift jumping can cause work fatigue, disruption of biological rhythms, deterioration of health conditions, and increased risk of workplace accidents. Therefore, Indonesia needs to reform its legal regulations by explicitly governing shift work mechanisms, including shift rotation, rest intervals between shifts, and worker health protection, in order to ensure legal certainty and more optimal protection.]]>
