Abstract

The implications of economic and investment globalization have led to the development of wig and fake eyelashes industries in Purbalingga, a small town in Indonesia, which resulted in open work including freelance workers. This fenomena appear from a partnership or subcontracting relationship between large and small industries. In order to meet the needs of the large industries, the small industries, locally referred as plasma industry, then hire daily labors. A legal protection for this type of labors means finding out their rights after carrying out their tasks. Nevertheless, the rights of the daily workers are usually beyond the employers’ concern. The working contract is not written and is more like familial relation. This can be seen from the form of legal execution, the contract, the wages, and others. This is due to the lack of legality in the business itself. It is important to note that the government has not made any effort to provide an integrated socialization regarding this matter and the labors do not aware of their own rights. In fact, in the implementation of the legal provisions of daily workers should comply the labor regulations, for example Law Number 13 in 2003 and its implementation.
