YOGYAKARTA – The disbursement of Eid Allowances (THR) is something that workers are looking forward to. THR is an allowance given by companies ahead of religious holidays in Indonesia. So, when will the 2025 THR be disbursed for private employees?
The 2025 Eid THR for private employees is regulated in the Circular (SE) of the Minister of Manpower (Menaker) Number M/2/HK.04.00/III/2025 concerning the Implementation of the Provision of Religious Holiday Allowances in 2025 for Workers/Laborers in Companies.
The SE emphasizes that the provision of Religious THR is an obligation that must be carried out by employers to Workers/Laborers.
When will the 2025 THR be Disbursed for Private Employees?
Quoted from Antara, Minister of Manpower (Menaker) Yassierli said that the disbursement of religious THR for private employees must be done in full or not in installments with a deadline of H-7 Eid al-Fitr 2025.
"THR must be paid 7 days before Eid. Must be paid in full. I ask all companies to pay attention to this provision," said Minister of Manpower Yassierli in Jakarta, Tuesday, March 12, 2025.
Referring to the Joint Decree (SKB) of the Three Ministers Number 1017 of 2024, Eid 2025 is estimated to fall on March 31, 2025.
If the allowance is given 7 days before Eid al-Fitr, then it is estimated that the THR for private employees will be disbursed no later than March 24, 2025.
Criteria for Recipients of THR for Private Employees 2025
The criteria for recipients of THR for private employees are regulated in PP Number 36 of 2021 concerning Wages and Regulation of the Minister of Manpower (Permenaker) Number 6 of 2016 concerning Religious Holiday Allowances for Workers/Laborers in Companies.
The group of private employees who are entitled to receive Religious THR 2025 is also reaffirmed in SE Menaker No. M/2/HK.04.00/III/2025. The criteria are:
- Workers/laborers based on a fixed-term agreement (PKWT/Contract) or an indefinite-term agreement (PKWTT/permanent) who have a continuous work period of 1 month or more.
- Workers/laborers based on PKWTT who are laid off by the company as of D-30 before the religious holiday.
- Workers/laborers who are transferred to another company with a continuing work period, if they have not received THR from the previous company.
How to Calculate THR for Private Employees 2025
Religious Holiday Allowances must be paid by the employer in full and may not be paid in installments.
Employees who have worked for 12 consecutive months, the amount of THR is one month's salary.
While for employees whose work period is at least 1 month continuously and less than 12 months, THR is given proportionally.
Here is an example of calculating THR for private employees:
Period of work: 12 x one month's wages
For example, worker A has PKWT status and has worked for 6 months continuously. Worker A's monthly wages are IDR 4,000,000, then here is the calculation of THR for worker A:
6: 12 x IDR 4,000,000 = IDR 2,000,000
Thus, worker A is entitled to receive THR of IDR 2,000,000.
For workers/laborers who work under a casual daily work agreement, monthly wages are calculated as follows:
- Workers who have worked for 12 months or more, monthly wages are calculated based on the average wages received in the last 12 months before Religious Holidays.
- Workers whose work period is less than 12 months, 1 month's wages are calculated based on the average wages received each month during the work period.
