This study is a systematic review which employs four phases: (1) the identification of relevant studies with the use of several keywords such as labor competitiveness; (2) the description of the position of the Indonesian labor competitiveness based on the data from the World Bank—OECD, International Labor Organization (ILO), United Nations Development Program (UNDP) and the Indonesian Central Bureau for Statistics (BPS); (3) the identification of factors that affect the competitiveness of Indonesian workers, and the formulation of recommendations for the government policy to increase the competitiveness of Indonesian workers. The results of this study find that the education sector becomes one of the priorities to be reformed. The government should be able to provide affordable secondary and higher education for the community, without neglecting the quality of the education. There should be a synchronization between the educational institutions and the industry needs so that graduates of secondary and tertiary education would not end up become educated unemployment with low competence.
