According to data from the Ministry of Manpower (Kemnaker), 26,400 employees experienced layoffs (PHK) in the first half of 2023.

Cumulatively, in the first six months of this year, the highest number of layoffs occurred in West Java (11,595 people), Banten (5,141 people), and Central Java (4,787 people).

However, this data does not reflect the entirety of layoff cases in Indonesia.

This is because Kemnaker only records layoffs reported by companies from 26 provinces through the Manpower Service Information and Application System and/or the Industrial Relations Court.

The actual number of layoffs may be higher than Kemnaker's data, as some companies have conducted layoffs but have not yet fully reported them.

In response, Kemnaker Secretary General Answar Sanusi stated that efforts are underway to update employment data.

According to Anwar, Kemnaker has also established a mechanism for taking action if companies intentionally fail to report their employment conditions.

"Indeed, there are some companies that may not have reported yet, and this is our responsibility. (The data collection process) benefits when employees report to us, so we can gather accurate information," said Anwar, as reported by *CNBC Indonesia*, Wednesday (12/7/2023).

"If later (companies) truly fail to report on time, we will take firm action against companies, especially those that do not comply with employment regulations and norms," said Anwar.
