Minister of Manpower Yassierli has announced that the proposed Manpower Bill (RUU Ketenagakerjaan) introduces 13 new regulatory provisions aimed at reforming labor practices in Indonesia. Among the key highlights of the draft legislation is a formal prohibition against employers withholding employees' educational diplomas as a condition of employment.
The initiative is part of a broader government effort to update labor regulations. By addressing specific workplace grievances such as the retention of personal documents, the bill seeks to establish clearer legal protections for workers while modernizing the national employment framework.
