Abstract
Termination of employment are crucial for workers, especially during the Covid-19 pandemic, many workers were laid off. The Manpower Law has provided protection to workers who have been laid off in the form of severance pay, service pay and compensation for rights that must be paid by employers. So far there has been no legal certainty regarding the fulfillment of workers' rights, even though it has permanent legal force from the Industrial Relations Court Decision. The Employment Cluster Job Creation Law adds to the provisions for criminal sanctions against employers who do not carry out these obligations. It is interesting to describe the legal certainty of paying workers' rights due to layoffs after the Job Creation Law, which in fact requires the attention of all stakeholders and the court in its enforcement.
