According to data from the Ministry of Manpower (Kemnaker), approximately 18,600 employees experienced layoffs (PHK) in Indonesia during January-February 2025.

This number is roughly double the number of layoffs during January-February 2024, and almost five times higher than the number during January-February 2023, as shown in the graph.

However, Kemnaker's data may not encompass all national layoff cases. This is because Kemnaker only records layoffs reported by companies through the Manpower Service Information and Application System or the Industrial Relations Court.

This was also stated by the President of the Indonesian Workers' Union Confederation (KSPI), Said Iqbal. He assessed that Kemnaker's layoff data differs from that found in the field.

"Field data is collected by trade unions, in this case specifically the KSPI. Meanwhile, government data comes from regional Manpower Offices (Disnaker). So the central government, in this case Kemnaker, doesn't go into the field," said Iqbal, as reported by Tempo.co on Saturday, April 5, 2025.

Based on data compiled by KSPI, approximately 49,800 people experienced layoffs across Indonesia during January-March 2025.

KSPI found that layoffs at the beginning of this year occurred for various reasons, ranging from company bankruptcy and debt difficulties to efficiency measures and factory relocations.
