- Abstract
Article 27 paragraph (2) of the 1945 Constitution, states that "every citizen has the right to work and livelihood that is suitable for humanity". This article means that the State is obliged to provide employment for its citizens by giving the widest possible opportunity to its citizens to obtain employment. Meanwhile Article 28 D paragraph (2) of the 1945 Constitution states that "every person has the right to work and receive fair and decent remuneration and treatment in an employment relationship". This provision brings the consequence of a person's basic right to get a job wherever he is. The current era of globalization has an impact on the entry of foreign workers (TKA) in filling in existing jobs. Law No. 13 of 2003 concerning Manpower has limitedly regulated the use of foreign workers who will work in Indonesia. Furthermore, in order to attract foreign investors to invest their capital in Indonesia, the Government has revoked the Presidential Regulation (Perpres) Number 72 of 2014 by imposing Presidential Regulation Number 20 of 2018 on the Use of Foreign Workers. Specifically for the use of foreign workers in the mining sector further regulated in the Minister of Energy and Mineral Resources Regulation No. 25 of 2018 concerning the Exploitation of Mineral and Coal Mining (Permen ESDM 25/2018) as well as in the Minister of Manpower Regulation number 35 of 2015.
