The Indonesia government has formally submitted the draft of the Omnibus Bill on Job Creation (“Draft Bill”) to the House of Representative / Dewan Perwakilan Rakyat (“DPR”) in early February 2020. The Draft Bill introduces various reform which is intended to impress the investors in order to accelerate the investment and ease of doing business in Indonesia. The Draft Bill will amend or simplify a number of regulations related to licensing procedures, investment requirements, employment, immigration, and so forth with the main focus of creating jobs.

In this Legal Insight edition, we highlight some of the employment matters discussed in the Draft Bill.
