- Abstract
Indonesia has demonstrated a commitment to gender equality and women’s empowerment, but challenges in implementation persist. This study investigates the critical role of gender-responsive and Child Friendly work facilities in advancing human rights and equitable development. Additionally, it analyzes the legal standing of Minister of Women’s Empowerment and Child Protection (Kemenppa) Regulation Number 5 of 2015 concerning the Provision of Gender-Responsive and Child Friendly Work Facilities. Employing a normative legal research methodology, this study examines relevant laws and regulations through a comprehensive literature review of primary and secondary data sources. Findings indicate that such work facilities are instrumental in safeguarding fundamental rights, fostering inclusivity in the workplace, promoting women’s economic participation, and mitigating social disparities. While not explicitly stipulated, Ministerial regulations hold considerable legal authority as implementing regulations. To enhance legal certainty, this research proposes clarifying the position of Ministerial Regulations within the hierarchy of laws and regulations.
