Its preamble cites Article 6(1) of Finance Minister Regulation 168/PMK.05/2015 on the budget mechanism for government assistance at ministries and agencies, as last amended by Finance Minister Regulation 132/PMK.05/2021. The held copy leaves the promulgation date blank. The regulation has 11 articles and an annex. Article 11 sets 1 January 2027 as its start date.

Key Provisions

What counts as government assistance (Article 1). Government assistance is assistance that does not meet the criteria of social assistance and is given by the Government to individuals, community groups, or government or non-government institutions.

Programmes, types and recipients (Articles 2 to 5). Assistance within the ministry covers two programmes: vocational education and training, and manpower development (Article 2). It takes the form of awards and/or other assistance with the characteristics of government assistance (Article 3). Recipients may be individuals who are not civil servants, soldiers or police officers, community groups, government institutions and non-government institutions (Article 4). Assistance is given as money, goods and/or services (Article 5).

Budget ceilings and technical guidelines (Articles 6 and 7). Assistance is given up to the highest ceiling set in the ministry's 2027 budget implementation list, and the details are set out in the annex (Article 6). Senior executive officials draw up and issue technical guidelines for distributing the assistance, each within their own duties and functions (Article 7).

Amounts in the Annex

Under the vocational programme, winners at the WorldSkills ASEAN Competition receive Rp25 million for gold, Rp20 million for silver, Rp15 million for bronze and Rp12.5 million for a diploma, per person. Winners at the WorldSkills Asia Competition 2027 receive Rp30 million, Rp25 million, Rp20 million and Rp15 million respectively. Trainees in competency-based training or on-the-job training receive a daily allowance of Rp50,000, except in pre-employment training, productivity training and training for workers affected by layoffs.

Under the manpower development programme, awards for respecting, protecting and fulfilling the rights of workers with disabilities are set at Rp10 million for an individual, Rp60 million for a legal entity and Rp30 million for a public facility provider. Other assistance comprises labour-intensive work assistance of Rp100 million per institution, Rp5 million for a new self-employed worker, Rp15 million for an established self-employed worker, and Rp724 million per group or digital start-up under the Youth Digitalization for Employability and Entrepreneurship Program, which targets jobs for people aged 18 to 30. The annex also sets a government contribution of Rp11,000 per person per month to the Job Loss Guarantee programme.

Supervision and Reporting

Senior executive officials provide technical and administrative guidance on the distribution of assistance (Article 8). They also monitor and evaluate whether distribution follows the general and technical guidelines and whether results match targets, and report to the Minister through the Secretary-General; those reports inform the next round of assistance policy (Article 9).

Revocation

When the regulation takes effect, Minister of Manpower Regulation 10 of 2025 on the guidelines for the 2026 budget year is revoked (Article 10).
