For information, Human Resources Minister Ida Fauziyah officially allows private companies to postpone or pay their employees’ THR religious payments this year.

“The Governor asked him to ensure that companies pay religious THR to workers in accordance with legal provisions,” Ida wrote in the May 6, 2020 letter, quoted Thursday (7/8).
KSPI President Said Iqbal said he would sue SE Menaker because he was against Government Regulation No. 78 of 2015 on wages.
The contradiction occurred because in Article 7 PP 78 it was explained that the THR must be administered no later than one week before the religious holiday. If employers are slow to pay THR, they will be subject to penalties in the form of a 5% fine per day from the end of the obligation period

“KSPI will sue companies to pay fines, if they want to use the SE of the Ministry of Human Resources. Because what is used as a legal umbrella for THR is PP 78, and the SE of the Ministry of Human Resources is in conflict with PP 78 “he said Friday (8/5) last week.
Ida requested that the circular no longer become controversial. Because, in formulating circulars, the Ministry of Human Resources has been very careful.
