- Indonesia’s Minister of Manpower ("Minister"), Ida Fauziyah, has confirmed that the Ministry of Manpower is planning to further amend various provisions set under Regulation of the Minister No. 2 of 2022 on Procedures and Requirements for the Disbursement of Benefits under the Old-Age Insurance Program ("Regulation 2/2022"), based instructions issued by President Joko Widodo.
- Previously, the issuance of Regulation 2/2022 was met with protests and objections from labor unions. In response to this outcry, the president now instructed the Minister to further simplify provisions that apply under the old-age insurance program, particularly in relation to the procedure for claiming benefits. This measure is being taken to help workers who are still being affected by the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic, as well as to establish more conducive employment environments.
- The president has also called for all of the relevant stakeholders, including business owners and employees, to work to establish conducive employment environments in order to further boost the country’s national competitiveness level. (SETKAB)
