Rahmat Wibowo detailed his labor dispute with PT Nomnie Technologies Indonesia, accusing the company of weaponizing probation to deny wages and compensation, citing specific statutes and casting their conduct as an implicit UU ITE threat disguised as mercy.

@ Rahmat Wibowo mm aw (On June 3, 2026, | sat across the table from PT Nomnie Technologies Indonesia — formerly known as Liven — at the Dinas Tenaga Kerja Kabupaten Tangerang. The result: Buntu. Deadlock. Both parties signed. | came with four documented claims. | brought the law. (@ unpaid wages for 2 working days — because 7 calendar days # 7 hari kerja. PP No. 35/2021 Pasal 37(4) is unambiguous. @ Reclassification of termination as PHK — because probation does not create a third legal category outside PKWTT. PKWTT termination is PHK. Full stop. Gi compensation for 50+ CVs submitted to their active recruitment pipeline — denied with the argument that it was "like cleaning a stranger's car.” Pre-contract work compensation — denied, despite being onboarded into company systems before April 1. What | received back: X calendar days based on contract <A false analogy that collapsed under Pasal 1338 KUH Perdata Circular logic that used post-termination screening to void pre-termination commitments ¢ An implicit UU ITE threat framed as "mercy" — with no lawyer in the room No Advokat. No Konsultan Hukum. A General Manager and an HRBP making substantive legal arguments about PP 35/2021 and KUH Perdata — while invoking criminal proceedings as good faith. This is a pattern I've now seen across Indonesian startups: The probation period — legally a feature within PKWTT, not a shadow employment category — is being weaponized as a low- cost exit instrument. No pesangon. No UPMK. Minimal notice. Clean books. Foreign-affiliated startups are importing HR norms from Singapore, the UK, and the US — at-will employment, garden leave, probation as-clean-exit — and applying them to a legal environment with fundamentally different protections. The law does not care about your internal HR policy if it contradicts the statute. The dispute now moves to tripartite mediation at Disnaker Kota Tangerang. lam documenting this publicly — not to damage, but to inform. Workers in indonesian tech are hired quickly and terminated quietly. Most don't know what the law actually says. You have rights during probation. Notice requirements apply. Earned compensation cannot be retroactively erased. 've published the full legal analysis. Link in comments.
