The process leading to the establishment of an employment insurance scheme in Indonesia from an ILO perspective
This brief summarized the process of employment insurance establishment from 2004 when the National Social Security Law passed, to 2021, when the regulation on job loss security or Jaminan Kehilangan Pekerjaan (JKP) was released.
After more than a decade of discussion, the establishment of an employment insurance system as part of an improved social protection policy has become a priority among national stakeholders.
This process was actively supported by the ILO/Japan project “Promoting and Building Social Protection in Asia (3rd Phase): Extending Social Security Coverage in ASEAN” (1 April 2016 to 31 July 2019).
