<![CDATA[This study aims to analyze the legal protection for workers facing employment termination due to corporate efficiency under Law Number 6 of 2023 on Job Creation and Government Regulation Number 35 of 2021, as well as to examine the evidentiary mechanism of efficiency claims by employers. This research employs normative legal research utilizing both a statutory approach and a conceptual approach. The findings indicate that legal protection for workers encompasses preventive protection through regulation and oversight, as well as repressive protection through industrial relations dispute resolution mechanisms. Following the enactment of the Job Creation Law, efficiency-based termination no longer requires permanent company closure as previously stipulated under the Manpower Law and Constitutional Court Decision Number 19/PUU-IX/2011, although the obligation to fulfill workers' normative rights remains intact. Furthermore, employment termination must strictly serve as a last resort after pursuing alternative measures. In the event of a dispute, the burden of proof rests on the employer to objectively demonstrate real efficiency conditions using valid legal evidence, such as financial statements or independent audit reports.]]>
