Dampak Pemutusan Hubungan Kerja (PHK) Akibat Pandemi Covid 19 terhadap Sosial Ekonomi Buruh Konveksi di Jalan Medan Area Selatan Kelurahansukaramai I Medan Skripsi

Abstract

The Covid-19 pandemic has caused the Termination of Employment (PHK) for convection workers from their previous company in Jalan Medan Area Selatan, Sukaramai I Village, Medan. Of course, this impacts six aspects of the socio- economic life of the former convection workers: employment, income, education, health, social interactions, and living conditions. Based on the research, the Covid 19 pandemic had a crucial and significant negative impact on six aspects of their socio-economic life. Regarding work, after losing their jobs, former convection workers are looking for other jobs to make a living. As for income, the salary they receive at their current job is still lower than their previous job. The education aspect did not have an impact because, on average, the informant's children who were still in school had received government financing, which was also free. Regarding social interaction, the Covid 19 pandemic has caused them to be reluctant to participate in associations or social gatherings that require a monthly fee. In the housing or residential aspect, the informants had a considerable impact.Especially the informants who are still renting or contracting. That means they have more difficulty paying their rent.
