ACHIEVING EQUITY IN THE WORKPLACE: WOMEN WORKERS' RIGHTS IN THE SMALL BUSINESSES
Abstract
This study aims to analyze the fulfillment of women's labor rights at S Boutique Palu, which has been operating since 2013 in the fashion industry, amidst challenges faced by female workers related to labor regulations. Using a qualitative approach and empirical legal method, data were collected through observation, structured interviews, and documentation. The results show that, although S Boutique Palu has met some of the material requirements in employment contracts, several worker rights have not been optimally fulfilled, including insufficient wages, unfair work hour arrangements, and incomplete employment contracts. The study concludes by emphasizing the need for improvements in fulfilling women's labor rights in alignment with principles of justice and equality, along with recommendations to foster a better and more sustainable working environment in the small and medium business sector.
