JAKARTA - DKI Jakarta Governor Pramono Anung has ensured that he will provide incentives, not only for workers, but also for employers after the DKI Jakarta provincial minimum wage (UMP) for 2026 was announced.
This incentive was issued by the DKI Provincial Government with the aim of easing the economic burden for workers and employers if they are not satisfied with the value of the Jakarta UMP in 2026 which was set by Pramono. For employers, they will be facilitated in handling permits to reduce tax burdens.
"For support for entrepreneurs or business actors, we will provide ease of licensing, improving services, relaxation, and tax incentives, and access to training and funding for MSMEs," said Pramono at the DKI Jakarta City Hall, Wednesday, December 24.
Meanwhile, the incentives given to the group of workers are subsidized food, subsidized clean water PAM Jaya, free public transportation managed by the DKI Provincial Government, and free health services. These incentives will be given after meeting the administrative requirements.
"Of course, in addition to this, there are still other social protection programs that can be accessed in accordance with applicable regulations, in accordance with laws and regulations," explained Pramono.
Previously, Pramono officially announced a 2026 DKI Jakarta UMP increase of Rp5,729,876. This figure is up 6.17 percent from the 2025 UMP of Rp5,396,761.
In the process of determining the UMP 2026, the DKI Provincial Government refers to Government Regulation Number 49 of 2025 concerning the Second Amendment to Government Regulation Number 36 of 2021 concerning Remuneration.
The DKI Jakarta Provincial Wage Board had previously completed the discussion and submitted a recommendation for the DKI Jakarta UMP 2026 to Pramono.
The Wage Council from the elements of the employer organization proposed the use of an alpha value of 0.55 of the DKI Jakarta economic growth.
Meanwhile, the trade union or labor union element proposed the DKI Jakarta UMP 2026 of IDR 5,898,511 or using an alpha above 0.9. This proposal is based on the results of the calculation of the minimum living standard (KHL) for the DKI Jakarta Province.
Meanwhile, from the government element, the DKI Jakarta UMP 2026 amount was proposed with the use of an alpha of 0.75 from the DKI Jakarta economic growth. This figure was used by Pramono in determining the UMP.
"In the PP, the alpha is set at 0.5 to 0.9. In the meeting of the Wage Council for discussion of matters related to UMP, it was decided that the determination of UMP 2026 was based on the alpha of 0.75. This UMP can be ensured to experience an increase and above the existing inflation in Jakarta," said Pramono.
"In the discussion, there must be a tug-of-war. I will convey it as it is and transparent. For entrepreneurs, at first they certainly survived with 0.5 and rose to 0.55, and they survived at that figure. Meanwhile, workers / workers, they want it of course above 0.9," he continued.
