              The House of Representatives and labor unions have agreed not to include several proposed
              revisions  in  a  disputed  labor  cluster  of  the  controversial  omnibus  bill  on  job  creation,  amid
              persistent calls for the government and House to drop the bill.

              House  Deputy  Speaker  Sufmi  Dasco  Ahmad  said  a  team  consisting  of members  of  the  bill’s
              working committee from the House Legislation Body (Baleg) and the unions’ representatives had
              agreed not to include the proposed amendments that contradicted Constitutional Court rulings,
              which were final and binding.


              JOB BILL ARTICLES HARMFUL TO WORKERS TO BE DITCHED

              The House of Representatives and labor unions have agreed not to include several proposed
              revisions  in  a  disputed  labor  cluster  of  the  controversial  omnibus  bill  on  job  creation,  amid
              persistent calls for the government and House to drop the bill.
              House  Deputy  Speaker  Sufmi  Dasco  Ahmad  said  a  team  consisting  of members  of  the  bill’s
              working committee from the House Legislation Body (Baleg) and the unions’ representatives had
              agreed not to include the proposed amendments that contradicted Constitutional Court rulings,
              which were final and binding.
              “Some of the provisions are regarding fixed-term employment agreements, wages, severance
              pay, employment relations, layoffs, dispute settlements, social security and others,” the Gerindra
              politician said in a press conference on Friday.

              The House will include substantial points into the bill’s problem inventory list (DIM) to be further
              discussed with the government in the bill’s deliberation.

              Article 154 of the bill, a copy of which was obtained by The Jakarta Post, eliminates employers’
              obligation to pay workers who are laid off due to the company’s efficiency efforts, stipulated in
              Article 164 of Manpower Law No. 13/2003.
