JAKARTA - The Minister of Manpower (Menaker) Ida Fauziyah said that the provision of religious holiday allowances (THR) for online motorcycle taxi drivers (Ojol) or logistics couriers is not an obligation of online application companies or applicators.
Ida's statement answered the polemic of the demand for THR by ojol drivers to applicator entrepreneurs.
"Let us interpret that this is our good intention whether or not it is not included in the context of obligation (giving THR)," he said during a working meeting with Commission IX of the DPR, at the DPR Building, Jakarta, Tuesday, March 26.
Separately, Ida explained that the company's obligation to provide THR for Eid 2024 only applies to work relationships based on a certain time work agreement (PKWT) or an indefinite time work agreement (PKWTT).
Ida said this provision is contained in Circular (SE) Number M / 2 / HK.04.00 / III / 2024 concerning the Implementation of the 2024 Religious Holiday Allowances for Workers / Laborers in Companies.

"Earlier I said that the basis for the appeal letter that we issued was PP number 36 of 2021 and Permenaker Number 6 of 16 where the THR was given to workers who have PKWT and PKWTT work relationships," he said.
On that basis, continued Ida, giving THR Lebaran 2024 to ojol or courier drivers is not mandatory because the status of the relationship is a partnership.
"Meanwhile, online motorcycle taxi friends are not included in the realm of Permenaker Number 6 of 2016, this year. Because their working relationship is a partnership relationship," he explained.
