The companies often make deals to extend the Unspecified Time Work Agreement without care about how long the worker has been working. The system of extending Unspecified Time Work Agreement without any certainty naturally raises unrest for workers for fear that Unspecified Time Work Agreement will no longer be extended. The Unspecified Time Work Agreement extension by the company is based on the existence of freedom of contract which frees the parties to make agreements and freedom to determine the contents of the agreement. This study aims to understand and analyze the legality of Unspecified Time Work Agreement who made by PT Interworld Steel Mills, and to understand the law protection for worker which extend the Unspecified Time Work Agreement.
