Abstrak
This study examines wage disparities and social security schemes for online motorcycle drivers in Indonesia through a comparative analysis with Malaysian regulations. It focuses on key issues such as income deductions beyond legal limits, unclear incentive structures, algorithmic penalties, and inadequate social protection for drivers. The study aims to evaluate the current legal framework for gig workers in Indonesia and offer recommendations based on Malaysia’s more established regulatory approach. Employing normative research with conceptual and comparative methods, the study analyses policies and identifies legal gaps between the two countries. Findings indicate that Indonesian drivers remain exposed to social risks and economic uncertainty due to their partner status, lacking formal legal safeguards, while Malaysian drivers benefit from legislation that ensures social security, clarifies employment status, and provides effective dispute-resolution mechanisms. The study concludes that implementing clear regulations on employment status, mandatory social security, and efficient dispute resolution systems is essential to foster a fair, secure, and sustainable digital labour ecosystem in Indonesia.
