Abstract

Unemployment that has occurred puts Indonesia at the top of the movements in the five ASEAN countries. In addition, the level of minimum wages is still an obstacle in accommodating the welfare of job seekers and maximizing human development which can still reduce the large number of workers in Indonesia. The purpose of this study is to see how the real conditions of the movement in Indonesia and the relationship between wages, the economy and human development can affect growth in Indonesia. This research used panel data regression analysis in the period 2011-2020 with 34 in Indonesia. The negative results indicate that the minimum wage and economic growth have an effect and are significant in reducing these elements. Meanwhile, human development has no significant effect in reducing the levels of movement. Setting minimum prices at a certain level and encouraging economic growth can be the answer in overcoming these problems. In human development, the investments made by the new government will have a real impact in the long term.
