Azis Ichwan, Ratih Mega Puspasari

Abstract


Abstract. Employees or workers who fight to get their rights in the Industrial Relations Court should automatically get legal aid from the Legal Consultation and Aid Institute (LKBH) or labor union, because an employee has not been able to make legal efforts either from the mediation stage to the trial stage. The purpose of this study is to examine and analyze the role of legal aid institutions in providing legal aid to employees who are unilaterally laid off who are fighting in the Industrial Relations Court; as well as to analyze the obstacles and solutions to the implementation of legal aid institutions in providing legal aid to an employee who is fighting to get rights in the Industrial Relations Court. The approach used in this research is a normative juridical method, utilizing primary and secondary data, analyzed qualitatively. This research is more specific, conducting descriptive analysis. The theories used are the theory of justice and the theory of the legal system. The results of this study are (1) The Garuda Yaksa Legal Consultation and Aid Institute (LKBH) plays an important role in realizing justice for employees who are fighting to obtain their rights in the Industrial Relations Court, through a justice-based approach. LKBH Garuda Yaksa accompanied an employee with the initials Y. who received unilateral termination of employment by the company PT. Forestama Kayu Lestari. LKBH Garuda Yaksa provided assistance from the mediation stage, Bipartite negotiations, first-level trials, cassation to execution, ensuring that employee rights are fulfilled, including obtaining fair compensation. This is concrete evidence of LKBH Garuda Yaksa's contribution in fighting for justice based on employee human rights in the Indonesian legal system.
