The protection of workers' rights is a crucial component of labor law, aiming to ensure the fulfillment of workers' fundamental rights within the employment relationship. Constitutionally, this protection is grounded in Article 27 paragraph (2) and Article 28D paragraph (2) of the 1945 Constitution of the Republic of Indonesia, which guarantee every citizen the right to employment, a decent standard of living, and fair treatment in employment relationships. Further regulations regarding worker protection are set forth in Law Number 13 of 2003 concerning Manpower, as amended by Law Number 6 of 2023 concerning the Enactment of Government Regulation in Lieu of Law Number 2 of 2022 concerning Job Creation into Law. This study aims to analyze the implementation of worker rights protection within employment relationships based on labor legislation, as well as to identify obstacles encountered during implementation and potential solutions. The research employs a normative legal research method, utilizing both statutory and conceptual approaches. The findings indicate that the protection of workers' rights has been implemented through regulations concerning employment contracts, wages, working hours and rest periods, occupational health and safety, social security for workers, protection against discrimination, and protection during the termination of employment. However, implementation still faces various obstacles, including low compliance with labor regulations among some employers, limited labor inspection capacity, workers' limited understanding of their rights, corporate economic factors, and the imbalance of bargaining power between workers and employers. Therefore, it is necessary to strengthen labor inspection, enhance workers' legal awareness, improve employer compliance, and optimize industrial relations dispute resolution mechanisms to achieve effective and fair protection of workers' rights that ensures legal certainty within employment relationships.
