Need help adjusting your payroll to match the new JKK and JKP contribution rates?
The start of 2025 brings promising news for labor-intensive industries across Indonesia. With the issuance of Government Regulation No. 7 of 2025, eligible companies can enjoy a 50% reduction in Work Accident Insurance (JKK) contributions between February and July 2025.
This bold policy offers not just cost savings but also strengthens the government’s commitment to economic recovery through employment support.

New JKK Contribution Rates Based on Risk Level
| Risk Level | New JKK Rate | Previous Rate |
| Very Low | 0.12% | 0.24% |
| Low | 0.27% | 0.54% |
| Moderate | 0.445% | 0.89% |
| High | 0.635% | 1.27% |
| Very High | 0.87% | 1.74% |
For Unemployment Insurance (JKP), the government has also updated contribution rates:

Why It Matters: Lower Costs, Higher Resilience
By reducing JKK contributions, the government is giving companies room to reinvest in employee development, technology, or operational improvements. For industries navigating tight margins and rising costs, this incentive provides welcome relief.
However, accurate payroll recalculations and BPJS compliance are critical to fully enjoy the benefits—and that’s where Permitindo steps in.

This 50% JKK contribution cut is more than a financial perk—it’s a step forward in supporting the backbone of Indonesia’s economy: labor-intensive industries. With smart planning and the right compliance partners, businesses can move forward with confidence and security in 2025.
