SOLO - The Solo City Government, Central Java Province, will oversee the implementation of rules regarding the payment of holiday allowances (THR) ahead of Eid.

Solo Mayor Gibran Rakabuming Raka said companies must pay THR for workers in accordance with applicable regulations. The city government will examine companies that are reported to have violated the rules regarding the payment of THR to workers.

"We'll see, there must be a reason. Later, later," he said in Solo, Antara, Tuesday, April 5.

The Solo City Manpower Office will check the readiness of companies to pay THR to workers.

"If there are companies like that (violating) then we will follow up (follow up). (Regarding the agreement) we will call two parties, whether the owner (business owner) is affected by COVID-19," he said.

If there is a problem between the company and the employee regarding the payment of THR, the relevant agency will intervene to mediate.

"Usually the relevant agencies have prepared it, every year it continues like that. Don't worry," he said.

Last year, the Surakarta City Manpower Office opened a complaint post regarding THR payments to ensure that companies fulfill their obligations to pay THR and that workers receive their rights.
