Abstract
The news of the arrival of foreign workers to Indonesia is the pros and cons in the midst of the Covid-19 pandemic. This triggers polemics and rejection from the community. Many think that the arrival of foreign workers is an injustice by the government towards local workers, given the high level of unemployment in Indonesia, especially during this pandemic, many local workers have lost their jobs. Actually the arrival of foreign workers is not a threat to local workers because the formulation of foreign workers is only for experts, who are not controlled by local workers. The research method used is normative law, by analyzing legal norms, both law in the sense of statutory regulations and unwritten laws that apply in society. The legal protections provided by the government to local workers through the establishment of certain conditions for foreign workers is seen as still not showing in favor of local workers, thus creating resistance among the community. A policy package is needed that provides a stimulus to national entrepreneurs and UMKM so that they absorb more local workers.Berita kedatangan TKA ke Indonesia menjadi pro dan kontra ditengah Pandemi Covid-19. Hal ini memicu polemik dan penolakan dari masyarakat. Banyak yang beranggapan kedatangan tenaga kerja asing adalah ketidakadilan pemerintah terhadap pekerja lokal, mengingat masih tingginya tingkat pengangguran di Indonesia apalagi di masa pandemi ini banyak pekerja lokal yang telah kehilangan pekerjaanya. Sebenarnya kedatangan TKA bukanlah ancaman bagi tenaga lokal karena formulasi TKA hanya untuk ahli, yang tidak dikuasai oleh tenaga kerja lokal. Metode penelitian yang digunakan adalah hukum normatif, dengan menganalisis norma hukum, baik hukum dalam artian peraturan perundang-undangan dan hukum tidak tertulis yang berlaku didalam masyarakat. Perlindungan hukum yang diberikan pemerintah terhadap tenaga kerja lokal melalui penetapan syarat tertentu bagi TKA dipandang masih belum menunjukan keberpihakan terhadap tenaga kerja lokal sehingga memunculkan resistansi dikalangan warga masyarakat. Diperlukan paket kebijakan yang memberi stimulus pada pengusaha nasional dan UMKM sehingga lebih banyak menyerap tenaga kerja lokal.
