<![CDATA[Abstract This research examines Occupational Safety and Health (OSH) protection for domestic workers as informal workers through a comparative study between Indonesia and Finland, driven by the high vulnerability to work-related hazards in the domestic sphere that has not been explicitly accommodated by Indonesian national law. Employing a normative juridical research method with statutory, comparative, and conceptual approaches, this study identifies a legal vacuum in Indonesia resulting from the limitations of regulations such as the Minister of Manpower Regulation No. 2 of 2015 and Law No. 1 of 1970, which inherently lean toward the formal-industrial sector. Conversely, Finland has successfully implemented universal-preventive protection through the Occupational Safety and Health Act (738/2002) and the ratification of the ILO Convention No. 189 of 2011 concerning Decent Work for Domestic Workers to realize welfare state principles. Based on human rights and social justice principles, this study highlights the urgency of strengthening legal protection in Indonesia, which must be realized through regulatory reform in the Domestic Workers Protection Act (UU PPRT) by incorporating concrete OSH standards, mandatory written employment contracts, and community-based enforcement mechanisms that adapt the successful model of Finnish law.
