Abstract

ABSTRACT. One of the informal professions in Indonesia is a domestic worker. The problem is that domestic workers have not received maximum protection related to their wages, comfort and work safety which causes them belittled because the lack of their awareness about the rights they supposed to get. This article was made to examine the issues faced by domestic workers and what steps can be taken to improve the bargaining position of domestic workers. The research method used is empirical sociological, focusing on primary data and interviews, supported by secondary data. Data collection and analysis were carried out qualitatively by using Anthon F. Susanto model through the stages of data triangulation. The conclusion is that in Government Regulation Number 2 of 2015 there are no details regarding the rights of domestic workers and there are no laws protecting domestic workers so there are still many violations against domestic workers.
 
 ABSTRAK. Salah satu profesi informal di Indonesia adalah pekerja rumah tangga (PRT). Persoalannya, PRT belum mendapatkan perlindungan yang maksimal terkait upah, waktu istirahat, kenyamanan, dan keselamatan kerja yang menyebabkan mereka diremehkan karena kurangnya kesadaran akan hak-hak yang seharusnya mereka dapatkan. Artikel ini bertujuan untuk meninjau persoalan yang dihadapi oleh PRT dan apa saja tindakan yang dapat dilakukan untuk menambah daya tawar PRT. Artikel ini menggunakan metode penelitian sosiologis empiris, dengan fokus pada data primer dan wawancara yang didukung oleh data sekunder. Pengumpulan dan analisa data dilakukan dengan cara kualitatif yang menggunakan model Anthon F. Susanto melalui tahapan triangulasi data. Kesimpulannya dalam Peraturan Pemerintah Nomor 2 Tahun 2015 tidak ada perincian mengenai hak-hak PRT dan juga belum ada undang-undang yang melindungi PRT sehingga masih banyak terjadi pelanggaran terhadap PRT.
