JAKARTA - Presidential Chief of Staff Moeldoko received the arrival of labor representatives in commemoration of International Labor Day. They are the President of the Confederation of All Indonesian Workers Unions (KSPSI) Andi Gani and the President of the Confederation of Indonesian Trade Unions (KSPI) Said Iqbal.
In the meeting after workers held a demonstration of May Day commemoration, Moeldoko emphasized that the Government did not ignore the welfare of workers in the implementation of the Job Creation Law, especially regarding sectoral wages and holiday allowances (THR).
"These are the two highlights that I will convey to the Minister of Manpower," said Moeldoko at the Bina Graha Building, Jakarta, Saturday, May 1.
Moeldoko said the government would be firm with companies that did not give THR as an employee right. For this reason, the Presidential Staff Office (KSP) is involved in overseeing the implementation of the Job Creation Law and its derivative regulations.
Continuing, the President of KSPI Said Iqbal said that his party had entrusted several workers' demands related to the workforce cluster to Moeldoko. Iqbal believes that Moeldoko can bridge the demands of the workers to convey to President Joko Widodo.
"Even before the Job Creation Law was passed, we also met Moeldoko. So it is not wrong if on this May Day commemoration we meet Moeldoko again, "said Iqbal.
It is known, at the action in the area of the Arjuna Wiwaha Horse Statue today, KSPI and KSPSI demanded that the Constitutional Court decide the judicial review as fair as possible. They hope that the Court can cancel the Job Creation Law.
"Dropping the Job Creation Law on the labor cluster, and a worker representative asked the Constitutional Court. This is a defective procedure, thus the formal test can be granted by the Court," said Said Iqbal.
Said Iqbal said that the Job Creation Law was impartial and was detrimental to Indonesian workers. He considered that there were formal and metallic defects related to the preparation of the Omnibus Law.
