JAKARTA - The DKI Jakarta Indonesian Employers Association (Apindo) invites the DKI Jakarta Provincial Government (Pemprov) to sit together to end the polemic of the 2022 provincial minimum wage (UMP).

This is in line with the decision of the DKI State Administrative Court (PTUN) which won the businessman's lawsuit regarding the determination of the 2022 UMP.

Deputy Chairperson of the DKI Jakarta Apindo DPP, Nurjaman, said that his party had been seeking legal certainty regarding the Jakarta UMP.

After the decision, Nurjaman hoped that the polemic over the Jakarta UMP would be over.

Therefore, Nurjaman said, his party opened the opportunity to discuss the PTUN decision regarding the 2022 UMP with the DKI Jakarta Provincial Government.

"So we invite you to sit down together so that we can end the polemic so that it doesn't drag on anymore. We are still in consultation with the team," he told reporters, Tuesday, July 12.

If the company has already implemented the Governor's Decree (Kepgub) 1517 of 2021 concerning the 2022 Provincial Minimum Wage, said Nurjaman, with the PTUN decision, the salary of the employee could decrease.

Furthermore, Nurjaman said that the UMP is the minimum wage for workers with less than 1 year of service. This means that workers with more than 1 year of service have a salary that is higher than the UMP in accordance with the agreement between the worker and the company.

"It has been proven, the panel of judges annulled the governor's decision number 1517 (in 2021)," he said.

DKI UMP Canceled by PTUN

Previously, the DKI Jakarta State Administrative Court (PTUN) canceled the decision of the Governor (Kepgub) of DKI Jakarta Anies Baswedan regarding the 2022 Provincial Minimum Wage (UMP) whose lawsuit was filed by a number of entrepreneurs.
