JAKARTA - Vice President (Wapres) Ma'ruf Amin reminded entrepreneurs to pay the Eid al-Fitr 2022 THR on time. Given the current economic conditions have begun to improve.
"I still hope that now the conditions are even better, I hope that the entrepreneurs will fulfill their obligation to pay the THR," said the Vice President on the sidelines of his working visit in Bandung, West Java, Wednesday, March 23, quoted from Antara.
He said this when answering a question regarding the postponement of THR payments that occurred on Eid al-Fitr the previous year due to the pandemic.
According to him, in the midst of the Covid-19 condition getting under control and various economic sectors also starting to recover, it is hoped that THR payments can be made according to the provisions. "Yes, I don't think businessmen should try to delay it again, maybe that time," he said.
On the same occasion, the Minister of Manpower, Ida Fauziyah, stated that THR is a worker's right guaranteed by law, which must be given to workers.
Fauziyah explained, in 2020 and 2021, due to the pandemic conditions at that time, it was agreed that THR payments could be given until December. But this year, he said the THR payment would be given according to the provisions.
"However, along with better economic development and the Covid-19 pandemic, which can also be handled properly, the provisions regarding THR payments will be returned as stipulated in the legislation," he said.
