JAKARTA - Representatives from the digital platform company TikTok, which has acquired the Tokopedia Group, deny that there has been a mass termination of employment (PHK) of its employees in Indonesia.
President Director of PT Tokopedia Stephanie Susilo said that her company was not currently laying off employees, but was carrying out internal restructuring or internal mobility for its employees. However, he did not elaborate further on the number of employees affected.
"There is no termination of employment at TikTok or Tokopedia Group," Stephanie said at the DPR building, as reported by ANTARA, Monday, July 6.
In the process of arranging it, according to him, there are a number of employees who have chosen to take compensation packages and work elsewhere. In addition, he said, there are also workers who are channeled to other company environments under the auspices of the TikTok-Tokopedia business group.
"Currently we are also recruiting for more than 100 positions in Indonesia," he said.
Previously, the President's Special Advisor for Employment and Labor Welfare, Said Iqbal, stated that he would directly follow up on the issue of layoffs (PHK) at Tokopedia and TikTok, to obtain facts before the government took further steps.
"We must not only hear from one side. The government must get a complete picture of what is really happening," said Said Iqbal when confirmed in Jakarta, Saturday (4/7).
Said Iqbal said this step was taken to obtain the facts in full before the government took further steps.
