Andri said, there is no concession for every entrepreneur who has employees. THR payments must be paid just like an entrepreneur is paying a salary.

This is a form of policy to safeguard the central government’s policy of paying the THR.

“We do not speculate whether or not there are companies that violate the provisions (full THR payment),” said Andri.

Companies that feel it is hard to pay THR must hold a bipartite meeting between employers and labor unions. Companies that claim to still have no money to pay their employees’ THR will be tested or examined.

“We’ll see whether the report is there or not,” he said.

If financial difficulties are really found, the DKI Jakarta Manpower and Transmigration Office will encourage to hold a bipartite meeting, between employers and employees.

“First, we will still encourage them to be bipartite. In the case of (unsuccessful) a tripatite was carried out in order to remind the company to carry out its obligations,” said Andri.

THR and salary, said Andri, are workers’ rights that must be fulfilled by employers.

Andri said that he would apply sanctions in accordance with the applicable regulations if a company still insisted on paying the THR in installments.
