Hak-Hak Pekerja Rumah Tangga dan Perlindungan Hukum di Indonesia

Abstract

The purpose of this study is to analyze the rights of informal domestic workers and legal protection in Indonesia through Law Number 13 of 2003 concerning Manpower and Regulation of the Minister of Manpower (Permenaker) Number 2 of 2015 concerning Protection of Domestic Workers. This type of research is qualitative using a normative-empirical approach. Sources of data include primary data in the form of interviews, while secondary data through statutory approaches and document studies. The results show that the rights of domestic workers have not been fully regulated to provide a decent life for domestic workers and the drafting of Permenaker No.2 of 2015 has not become a state protection for domestic workers because the regulation focuses on supervising channeling agencies. Therefore, government awareness of the existence of domestic workers is necessary.
