JAKARTA - Central Java Governor Ganjar Pranowo asked the company to carry out the obligation to pay holiday allowances (THR) to workers or laborers according to the schedule and regulations set by the government.

"To the company, pay THR according to schedule and regulations," he said while visiting workers at the Ambarawa Flats on Labor Day commemoration in Semarang Regency, as quoted from Antara, Monday 3 May.

This was conveyed by Ganjar in response to a question from a worker who asked about the certainty of the THR payment.

The PDI Perjuangan politician ensures that companies that do not make THR payments will be subject to sanctions in accordance with applicable regulations.

Previously, the Minister of Manpower Ida Fauziyah had issued a circular THR 2021 obliging companies to pay according to the law, even though they were given a payment dispensation no later than the day before the holidays.

This has been stated in the Circular of the Minister of Manpower of the Republic of Indonesia Number M/6/HK.04/IV/2021 concerning the Implementation of Providing Religious Holiday Allowances in 2021 for Workers/Laborers in Companies.

The Minister of Manpower also requires employers who are unable to pay THR to have a dialogue with workers or laborers to reach an agreement that is carried out in a family manner accompanied by good faith with the agreement that must be made in writing.
