Abstract

The arrangement of the minimum wage after the enactment of the Job Creation Law has become a polemic and raises concerns about income decrease for workers due to a lot of unclear information. To overcome this problem, it requires quick and precise action by the government by providing socialization to the public. Referring to these conditions, the writer is interested in examining how the minimum wage arrangement in the Job Creation Law, and what efforts should be made in disseminating wage arrangements. Furthermore, the research method that is used in this research is normative juridical with descriptive-analytical research specifications. The results of this study indicate that companies are not allowed to pay wages to their workers below the minimum wage. Therefore, the government must provide socialization to academics, practitioners in the field of manpower, regional heads, manpower service officials both in the province and city/regency, and more importantly, socialization to employers and workers, both formal and informal.
