Abstract
This study aims to analyze the civil law protection provided to
workers' rights in labor relations in Indonesia. In this country, labor law
serves as a foundation in protecting workers' rights while ensuring a balance
in the relationship between workers and employers. The study focuses on various
legal instruments, such as Law No. 13 of 2003 on Manpower and other related
regulations, in order to identify the extent to which workers' rights are
empowered and guaranteed. This study focuses on understanding the legal
instruments that govern labor in Indonesia, such as Law No. 13 of 2003
concerning Manpower, as well as other related regulations. Through an in-depth
analysis of these regulations, the research identifies the extent to which
workers' rights are recognized, empowered, and guaranteed by law. This research
also seeks to find loopholes in the implementation of laws that may still need
improvement, and how stakeholders are working to support and advance workers'
rights. Thus, it is hoped that the results of this study can contribute to
efforts to improve the welfare of workers in Indonesia and support the creation
of better industrial relations. Through a literature review and a normative
juridical approach, this study highlights the importance of legal protection in
the field of employment, including the right to fair wages, a safe work
environment, and freedom of association. Further analysis also discusses the
challenges faced in the implementation of the law, including inadequate legal
infrastructure and lack of legal awareness among workers. The results of the
study show that although regulations have accommodated the basic needs of
workers, there is still a gap between laws and regulations and practices in the
field. Therefore, legal reform and increased supervision are needed so that the
protection of workers' rights can be realized effectively. The conclusion of
this study offers recommendations to improve Indonesia's labor law framework,
namely by strengthening law enforcement and increasing the capacity of related
institutions.
