If in the agreement, the wages paid are found to be lower or contrary to laws and regulations, the agreement may be null and void and the wage arrangements are carried out in accordance with the provisions of laws and regulations. The research method is normative juridical to analyze data by means of literature studies on secondary data which specifically discusses the norms contained regarding the Minimum Wage Provisions. Obstacles in the application of wages, both the UMP (Provincial Minimum Wage) and the UMK (Regency/City Minimum Wage), namely lower and middle-level companies that are unable to carry out the provisions of the UMP and UMK provisions themselves so that there is a gap between workers and companies. Even though the UMP is smaller than the UMK, there are small and medium-sized companies that are unable to provide good wages to workers according to the stipulations of the UMP.
