Recently Complete Private Employee THR Provisions With Disbursement Schedule, How To Calculate, To Sanctions
YOGYAKARTA Maybe you are one of the private workers waiting for the disbursement of the holiday allowance (THR). Giving THR to private employees is an obligation that must be given by the company. Therefore, the public is expected to know the provisions of the THR for Private Employees.
The provision of THR has been emphasized by the Minister of Manpower (Menaker) Ida Fauziyah through Circular M / 2 / HK.0400 / III / 2023 concerning the Implementation of the 2023 Religious THR for Workers / Laborers in Companies. Based on the letter, there are several things that workers need to know, namely as follows.
Minister of Manpower Ida explained that THR must be given to workers or laborers who have worked with a work period of one month continuously or more.
In addition, THR is also given to workers who have a working relationship with the company based on an indefinite time work agreement (PKWTT), a certain time work agreement (PKWT).
"Including workers or casual daily laborers, I want to underline, including casual workers or laborers who meet the requirements in accordance with statutory regulations," said Ida, Tuesday, March 28.
Minister Ida also said that entrepreneurs are required to pay THR for Eid 2023 no later than D-7 Eid al-Fitr or on April 15 assuming Eid al-Fitr coincides with April 22.
"When should the THR be given? Religious THR must be paid no later than seven days before Religious Holidays," he said.
The provision of THR by the company to its workers is carried out in full or cannot be paid in installments. This means that the THR is no longer given in stages like during the COVID-19 pandemic.
Minister of Manpower Ida assessed that the Indonesian economy is currently starting to improve so that there is no longer any reason for the company not to pay the full THR.
"I hope there will be no more stories the company does not pay its THR," he said.
Ida also briefly explained how to calculate the 2023 THR which is adjusted to a person's tenure. Workers or laborers who already have a working period of 12 months continuously or more, then the THR given is one month's salary.
As for workers or laborers who have a working period of less than 1 year, the amount of THR is given proportionally. The THR formula is a working period divided by 12 months, then multiplied by the amount of wages received per month.
For example, person A works with a working period of 13 months with a salary of IDR 2 million for Jogja UMR. So the THR received this year is 1 x one month's salary of IDR 2 million. Different cases if A has a working period of 6 months, then the amount of THR received is 6 months/12 months x IDR 2 million, which is IDR 2 million, then the THR obtained by the new worker is IDR 1 million.
Entrepreneurs who violate the payment of THR to workers will be subject to sanctions by referring to Government Regulation (PP) Number 36 of 2021 concerning Wages. In this regulation, the most severe sanction that can be accepted by rogue companies is freezing.
"The imposition of sanctions is in the form of a written warning, restrictions on business activities, temporary suspension or part of the production equipment to freezing business activities," he said.
