The Job Creation Law is one of the structural reform policies that have been implemented by the Indonesian government with the aim of improving the investment climate and expanding employment opportunities. Despite its positive aims, the law has also generated debate and controversy regarding the resulting implications for labor rights. This study aims to analyze the impact that the Job Creation Law has had on the protection of labor rights in Indonesia. This research uses a normative juridical method with a statutory approach. In addition, this research also includes monitoring changes in policies, company practices, and workers' attitudes towards the implementation of the Job Creation Law. The results of the research show that the work copyright law has been rejected by various community clusters with the view that it does not provide adequate benefits and protection for Indonesian workers or laborers. Some of the implications of this law for the protection of workers' rights in Indonesia based on Article 81 chapter IV of the Job Copyright Law which discusses employment are the abolition of several provisions regarding severance pay, ease of entry of foreign workers, abolition of the maximum limit for contract workers, and abolition of the system City/District Minimum Wage.
