JAKARTA - The President of the Labor Party, Said Iqbal, said online motorcycle taxi drivers (ojol) deserve a pension, just like workers in general.
"They are entitled to rights as workers, living wages, health insurance, pension insurance and other guarantees," Said said at a press conference in front of the DPR RI MPR building, Central Jakarta, Saturday, May 14.
Said Iqbal believes the government can use its capacity to pay attention to the fate of ojol drivers who do not receive any guarantees as workers.
In fact, ojol drivers are the most popular field of work for the lower middle class.
"Ojol drivers are workers, not partners whose work relationships are unclear, so they are entitled to rights as workers," he said as quoted by Antara.
In addition, he also hopes that domestic workers (PRT) get proper protection guarantees.
With the demonstration held by the Labor Party today, he hopes that the government will listen and follow up on these aspirations.
The masses held an action in front of the DPR RI MPR building, this afternoon. A mass of workers can be seen filling the side of the road in front of the building, precisely along Jalan Gatot Subroto, Central Jakarta.
While holding the action, they sang a struggle song to ignite the spirit of the masses. The atmosphere of the demonstration was even more lively when the masses sang together.
At the same time, hundreds of officers guarded the location to ensure the action went smoothly and safely. So far, the conditions at the site are still under control.
