Abstract

Legal protection against a daily work is very urgent today given the increasing number of them. Governments have an obligation to ensure the protection of the rights of them. This study discusses two subjects. The first is the inventory of labour rights according to the constitution and rules of normative and the implementation for daily work. The second is the substance of the government's policy to accommodate the protection of the rights of workers based on the Ministry of Manpower and Transmigration Republic of Indonesia Number: Kep.100 / Men/VI/2004 about the Provisions in the Implementation of Given Time Employment Agreement. The purpose of this study was to determine the protection of the constitutional and normative rights for daily workers. Next to determine the legal policy of the Indonesian government in providing protection to daily workers through Ministerial Decree No. 100/2004. Normative methods used to analyze the legal norms applicable in Indonesia governing the protection of daily workers. Based on this method, the portion of the protection of the rights of workers will be known. The results of this research are that the rights of an employee still do not fulfil the rights of workers constitutively and normatively. Government policy in the protection of daily workers was still not enough to provide legal certainty, usefulness, and fairness for workers. The government's policy regarding the rights of daily workers still needs to be improved in order to accommodate the rights of daily workers.
