        "summary": "Indonesian online transport workers' union SPAI has rejected a planned reduction in platform commission fees to 8%, arguing it contradicts President Prabowo's broader commitment. The union insists the policy should cover all ride-hailing and delivery drivers, including four-wheeled taxis and courier services, not just motorcycle passenger services. SPAI is also urging the government to ratify the ILO Convention on platform workers and include driver protections in the new Labour Law.",
        "content": "<p>Jakarta - Following President Prabowo Subianto\u2019s directive on Labour\nDay, 1 May 2026, ride-hailing services GoTo and Grab Indonesia announced\nthey would reduce their application commission to 8% starting 1 July\n2026. This means driver partners will receive 92% of trip earnings, up\nfrom the previous 80%. However, GoTo and Grab Indonesia stressed that\nthe commission reduction to 8% only applies to two-wheeled online\nmotorcycle taxi (ojol) passenger transport services. This means online\ntaxi drivers, or four-wheeled vehicles, are not included in the new\nscheme. Cargo couriers delivering packages are also excluded from the\nnew 8% commission scheme starting next week. In its official statement,\nGrab Indonesia specifically mentioned the 8% commission is for the\n\u2018GrabBike\u2019 service. Similarly, GoTo specified the new commission for the\n\u2018GoRide\u2019 service. Responding to this, the Indonesian Transport Workers\nUnion (SPAI) declared its rejection of the policy\u2019s implementation. In\nan official statement received by CNBC Indonesia on Wednesday\n(24\/6\/2026), SPAI said the rejection was based on the policy\ncontradicting Prabowo\u2019s commitment on Labour Day. \u2018[President Prabowo]\nstated that the 8% platform commission applies to all online transport\nworkers such as ojol, online taxis, and cargo couriers,\u2019 the statement\nread. \u2018The Presidential Regulation means it covers all online transport\nworkers performing passenger or goods delivery (including food) using\ntwo-wheeled, four-wheeled or more vehicles.\u2019 Furthermore, SPAI considers\nthat rules frequently issued unilaterally by applicators like Gojek,\nGrab, Maxim, InDrive, ShopeeFood, Lalamove, Deliveree, Borzo, Green SM\nand others occur because the worker status for ojol, online taxi, and\ncargo courier drivers has not yet been recognised. \u2018The impact for\nonline transport workers is an inhumane income of Rp 100,000 per day,\nbelow the minimum wage standard such as the Jakarta UMP of Rp 5.7\nmillion. Likewise, working conditions are inadequate, with long working\nhours of up to 12-18 hours per day, which is highly prone to road\naccidents,\u2019 the statement read. SPAI also highlighted the tendency for\nonline transport worker partners not to receive workers\u2019 rights such as\ndecent wages, 8-hour working days, menstrual and maternity leave,\ndisability support, social security, trade unions and collective\nbargaining. To this end, the union urged the government to ratify ILO\nConvention 193 on Platform Workers, which was approved for adoption at\nthe 114th International Labour Conference (ILC) session last June.\n\u2018Simultaneously, the government, namely the Ministry of Manpower, must\nimmediately include these protection rules for ojol, online taxi and\ncargo courier drivers into the employment relationship in the discussion\nof the new Labour Law,\u2019 concluded SPAI\u2019s statement.<\/p>",
