West Java Governor Ridwan Kamil (ANTARA)

West Java Governor M Ridwan Kamil said the incident that happened to a female employee in Cikarang, Bekasi Regency, who was asked to stay with her superiors at the hotel as a condition for extending her work contract was a crime.

"Of course it shouldn't happen, it's a crime. Using sexual harassment for terms of increase or extension of the contract, I will curse it out. It can't happen. Whether it's an individual, whether it's a new matter that turns out, we have to stop it," said Ridwan Kamil as quoted by ANTARA, Tuesday 9 May.

Ridwan Kamil asked the West Java Manpower and Transmigration Office (Disnakertrans) to conduct further investigations into this case, including other companies in West Java.

According to him, the West Java Manpower and Transmigration Office has conducted research and investigations into this case and if it has entered the criminal realm, then it will report to the police for further action.

"Of course it should not be repeated again because the indications are not only in one company. The handling is sufficient by the manpower department as we are doing now," he said.

The Manpower and Transmigration Office (Disnakertrans) of West Java Province (Jabar) sent a team to investigate viral news about a company boss or boss in Cikarang, Bekasi Regency, who required to sleep together at the hotel to extend the work contract of female employees/female employees.

"So for the Cikarang case, we have assigned supervisors there because I believe it is not the entrepreneur," said Head of the West Java Province Manpower and Transmigration Service (Disnakertrans) Rachmat Taufik Garsadi, on the sidelines of the Peak Commemoration of International Labor Day or May Day 2023, in Bandung City, Thursday 4 May.

He believes that the news about the company boss in Cikarang, Bekasi Regency, who requires sleeping together to extend the employee's work contract is carried out by an individual.

"Because the company already has regulations, there is a company regulation that the cooperation agreement is the highest rule in the company. So if there is an extended contract and so on. It is already in the company's rules and that is the exact person," he said.

The West Java Manpower and Transmigration Office, said Taufik, has not been able to inform the results of the team's investment that has been sent to Cikarang regarding the news.

"But I can't convey it yet because my team is still investigating there," he said.
