Indonesia’s Constitutional Court has issued a game-changing decision amending provisions of the Manpower Law.
Due to the changes resulting from the Constitutional Court decision, under Article 151 paragraph 4 of the Manpower Law, employment termination requires a court decision that is legally binding. Further, it can be interpreted that under Article 157A paragraph 3 of the Manpower Law, employees shall continue to work and receive wages until there is a court decision on their termination that is legally binding.
The amendments to the Manpower Law following the Constitutional Court ruling are set to have a substantial impact on Indonesia’s labor and employment landscape, both legally and practically. Companies will need to pay close attention to these amendments when managing their employees and handling related matters.
