Indonesia’s proposed ride-hailing reforms would cut commissions, mandate insurance, and boost driver protections, pending final approval.
A draft presidential decree in Indonesia could slash ride-hailing commissions for two-wheel vehicles from 20% to 10%, mandate platforms to cover accident and death insurance at about $1 per month per driver, and split costs for health, pension, and old-age premiums.
The proposal, under review by President Prabowo Subianto, also grants drivers the right to unionize and allows government oversight of platform-worker agreements.
Driven by protests and a driver’s death during demonstrations, the changes aim to improve gig worker protections amid concerns over a potential merger between GoTo and Grab.
The rules would apply to ride-hailing and on-demand logistics firms, with industry sources warning they could threaten platform profitability and reduce driver numbers.
The final status and enforcement timeline remain unclear.
Las reformas propuestas por Indonesia para los servicios de transporte público reducirían las comisiones, exigirían un seguro obligatorio e incrementarían las protecciones para los conductores, a la espera de su aprobación final.
