BEKASI - Deputy Speaker of the Indonesian House of Representatives Sufmi Dasco Ahmad and members of the DPR RI visited the PT Multistrada Arah Sarana factory that produces Michelin brand tires in Cikarang, Bekasi Regency, West Java, Monday, due to the issue of mass layoffs (PHK).

Dascotiba was at the location with his entourage, including the Deputy Speaker of the Indonesian House of Representatives, Saan Mustopa, a member of Commission I of the House of Representatives Abraham Sridjaja, to a member of Commission IV of the House of Representatives Rajiv. The visit was also carried out in the framework of the layoff Task Force (Satgas).

"We received reports from trade union friends at PT Multistrada regarding the plan for unilateral layoffs from the company. Therefore, we came to communicate later, assist communication with the company," Dasco said as reported by Antara.

When visiting the factory, the labor group was holding a demonstration regarding the issue of layoffs. Then the mass of action also gave way for Dasco's group of vehicles to enter the factory area.

After entering, Dasco and the ranks of the DPR and labor representatives immediately walked to the management office and met with representatives of the company.

They held a meeting for about 10 minutes with the company represented by the HRD Manager of PT Multistrada Arah Sarana, Fajar.

"The management took the decision not to attend because we didn't come to tell you that we had already spoken to the company representatives earlier," he said.

From the meeting, Dasco asked the company to first stop all processes related to layoffs because it suspected that there was a violation in the issue of layoffs.

The news about the layoffs of this multinational French tire company came from a labor organization.

It is suspected that this was due to the decline in demand for Michelin tires, which he said also occurred in the global scope.

Chairman of the Confederation of All Indonesian Trade Unions (KSPSI) Andi Gani Nena Wea said workers' organizations would take strategic steps to protect members in danger of losing their jobs.

He asked the Ministry of Manpower, the Bekasi Regency Manpower Office, and the West Java Provincial Manpower Office to immediately summon the management of the company and the Head of the Work Unit (PUK) KEP KSPSI PT Multistrada.
