        "summary": "The Indonesian government has initiated a mapping process to identify industrial sectors at high risk of mass layoffs. A dedicated task force, involving labour union leaders, will provide input to mitigate job losses and protect worker welfare amidst current economic pressures.",
        "content": "<p>The Deputy Speaker of the House of Representatives (DPR RI), Sufmi\nDasco Ahmad, stated that the government has begun mapping several\nbusiness sectors that are potentially facing a wave of layoffs. This\nannouncement was made during the 3rd Congress of the Confederation of\nthe Indonesian Labour Union (KPBI) held in Jakarta on Sunday, 7 June\n2026.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cConsequently, we are looking into mitigation strategies for layoffs\nand the welfare of labourers, which we are all becoming aware of. Given\nthe current situation and conditions, I have heard that meetings\nregarding layoff mitigation are scheduled to take place as early as next\nweek,\u201d said Dasco.<\/p>\n<p>He explained that the Layoff Mitigation and Labour Welfare Task\nForce, which includes several heads of Indonesian labour unions as\nmembers, will provide critical input regarding which sectors are most\nvulnerable to mass layoffs. \u201cThis is based on information provided by\nlabour union leaders to the government, identifying the specific points\nthat are about to be impacted by layoffs,\u201d he added.<\/p>\n<p>Dasco expressed hope that the task force\u2019s input would prove\nbeneficial to the government. He specifically highlighted the Labour\nDesk established by the National Police (Polri), which has significantly\nassisted in reallocating laid-off workers to new employment\nopportunities in other companies. \u201cWe believe this is an excellent\ninitiative and should be scaled up within the government\u2019s layoff\nmitigation and labour welfare task force,\u201d he noted.<\/p>\n<p>During the same event, the Chief of the National Police, General\nListyo Sigit Prabowo, acknowledged that current global conditions are\nimpacting the domestic landscape, including industrial relations\ninvolving labour. \u201cAs the police, we must remain neutral and ensure that\nthe investment climate continues to grow. Companies and industries must\nthrive to create jobs, which in turn creates opportunities for our\nfellow workers,\u201d Sigit stated.<\/p>\n<p>Sigit also mentioned that the Labour Desk has successfully\nfacilitated new employment for 3,000 laid-off workers to date. Regarding\nthese placement efforts, Sigit emphasised that the Labour Desk\u2019s current\nmandate extends beyond industrial issues to actively helping labourers\nimprove their overall welfare.<\/p>",
