JAKARTA - Member of Commission B of the DKI Jakarta DPRD from the PDIP faction, Gilbert Simanjuntak, responded to the DKI Jakarta provincial minimum wage (UMP) value in 2024 which was set at Rp5,067,381 or Rp5.06 million.Gilbert views that the increase in the DKI UMP in 2024 is 3.38 from the minimum wage in 2023, which amounts to Rp4.9 million, if you look at the current conditions. "If it is still up to about 3 percent, I think it still makes sense, yes, because based on the inflation rate we are not alone. Based on the inflation rate, civil servants do not increase every year, however, how come," Gilbert said in a short message, Wednesday, November 22. Gilbert asked workers to understand the amount of the UMP increase set by the Governor of DKI Jakarta in Governor's Decree (Kepgub) 818 of 2023 concerning the Provincial Minimum Wage of 2024 Province. Even though the COVID-19 pandemic has ended, according to Gilbert, not all companies are able to pay their workers' salaries according to the demands for a 15 percent UMP increase. There is not a small recovery after yesterday COVID, but I am not sure that this will immediately support demand because if the operational cost for employee salaries. (UMP 15 percent increase) is too large," explained Gilbert. It is known that the value of the DKI Jakarta UMP in 2024 set by the Acting Governor (Pj) DKI Jakarta Heru Budi Hartono is lower than the nominal demands of the labor group. The amount of the UMP value is different from the recommendations for the 2024 UMP value of Rp5,637,068 or an increase of 15 percent. Heru admitted that he could not determine the Jakarta UMP nominal in 2024 more than the figure he has set now.

The DKI Regional Government cannot pass the government regulations that have been set, which is a maximum of 0.3," explained Heru.
