Pensions are covered as part of the country’s social insurance scheme, but some employers choose to offer additional contributions as a benefit.
Disability insurance is covered as part of the country’s social insurance scheme.
Unemployment insurance is now available for many Indonesians. To be eligible, they must be citizens and have been enrolled in the country’s BPJS Kesehatan (health insurance) and BPJS Ketenagakerjaan (pension) programs at least six months before the termination of employment.
