Following mediation facilitated by Indonesia's Ministry of Manpower, PT Amos Indah Indonesia has agreed to pay approximately Rp12.7bn in severance to 134 former employees, while the terminations remain in effect.
A termination-of-employment dispute involving PT Amos Indah Indonesia and 134 former employees has been resolved through mediation facilitated by Indonesia’s Ministry of Manpower (Kemnaker) and the National Police Manpower Desk.
The agreement was announced by Deputy Minister of Manpower Afriansyah Noor during a mediation event in Jakarta on 23 July 2026 (Thursday). The case had followed a series of layoffs carried out by the company in March 2026, which were challenged by the workers’ union on the grounds that the process did not meet expectations of fairness.
Under the mediated settlement, the termination of employment for all 134 workers remains in effect. PT Amos Indah Indonesia has, however, agreed to fulfil the affected employees’ entitlements through severance payments totalling approximately Rp12.7bn. Individual amounts will be determined according to each employee’s length of service.
According to Deputy Minister Afriansyah, the resolution was reached within three weeks, following a request from the National Police Chief to address the matter within one month. He attributed the outcome to close coordination between Kemnaker and the National Police Manpower Desk, which jointly facilitated discussions between company management and former employees.
“Thanks to the collaboration of the Ministry of Manpower and the National Police Manpower Desk, the company's management and former workers finally managed to reach an agreement within three weeks,” he said.
Brigadier General Pol. Mohammad Irhammi, Head of the National Police Manpower Desk, described the settlement as an example of cross-agency collaboration to support workers’ welfare and resolve employment disputes through dialogue.
