According to a report by the Central Bureau of Statistics (BPS), there were approximately 62.56 million workers in Indonesia in August 2021.

Of this number, 51.53% received wages above Rp2 million/month.

The term "workers" in this report includes employees with permanent employers, as well as independent workers without permanent employers.

By gender, the majority of workers with wages above Rp2 million/month were male, at 56.56%. Women in this group accounted for only 41.44%.

Furthermore, about 2 out of 10 workers in Indonesia earned less than Rp1 million/month in August 2021. Approximately one in three female workers fell into this category, while only 14.84% of male workers did.

Around 1.17% of workers earned less than Rp200,000/month in August 2021, approximately 730,000 people.

In April 2022, the government planned to provide a wage subsidy (BSU) of Rp1 million to 8.8 million workers with salaries below Rp3.5 million.

This BSU plan aimed to support recovery from the pandemic and ease the burden on the public due to rising prices of basic necessities since the beginning of 2022.
