How Indonesian severance pay works under PP 35/2021

Indonesian severance consists of three separate components — UP, UPMK, and UPH — each calculated by service years, monthly wage, and termination reason under PP 35/2021.

The displayed result is a pre-tax estimate. The tool does not determine employment status, wage components, or rights under a collective agreement.

This covers Indonesian labor law only

The calculation follows UU 11/2020 (Cipta Kerja) and PP 35/2021. Korean severance uses an entirely different formula (3-month average wage × 30 × service days ÷ 365).

Do not use this result under a non-Indonesian governing system.

UP is tiered by years of service

Uang Pesangon (UP) starts at 1 month for service under 1 year, rises by 1 month per year, and caps at 9 months for 8+ years.

The amount is then multiplied by the termination-reason factor (0× to 2×).

  • < 1 year: 1 month
  • 1–2 years: 2 months
  • ≥ 8 years: 9 months (cap)

UPMK is a separate long-service component

Uang Penghargaan Masa Kerja (UPMK) starts at 2 months for 3–6 years and rises to 10 months for 24+ years.

UPMK adds to UP; it does not replace it.

  • 3–6 years: 2 months
  • 12–15 years: 5 months
  • ≥ 24 years: 10 months

UPH covers unused leave and other rights

Uang Penggantian Hak (UPH) includes unused annual leave compensation, return transport costs, and contractual rights.

This tool calculates only unused leave × daily wage. Other items require contract review.

  • Leave × daily wage
  • Daily wage = monthly ÷ 30
  • Other items from contract

Termination reason sets the UP multiplier

PP 35/2021 specifies different factors: general PHK 1×, retirement 1.75×, death/prolonged illness 2×, efficiency 0.5×, serious misconduct 0× UP + 1× UPMK, resignation 0× UP + 0× UPMK.

Reason classification significantly affects the total.

  • General PHK: 1× UP
  • Retirement: 1.75× UP
  • Death: 2× UP
  • Resignation: 0× UP

Compare the estimate with the employment contract

This estimate applies only the PP 35/2021 formula. A more favorable employment contract, CBA, or company rule takes precedence.

In a dispute, the Industrial Relations Court (PHI) ruling is final.

  • Check the contract
  • Tax is separate
  • Disputes: PHI jurisdiction

Questions about Indonesian severance pay

QWhich country does this calculator cover?

Indonesian severance under PP 35/2021 only. For Korean severance, use the separate calculator.

QWhat are UP, UPMK, and UPH?

UP (Uang Pesangon) is the service-based severance, UPMK (Uang Penghargaan Masa Kerja) is a long-service reward, and UPH (Uang Penggantian Hak) covers unused leave and other rights.

QDoes the amount change by termination reason?

Yes. PP 35/2021 sets different UP multipliers: retirement 1.75×, death/prolonged illness 2×, efficiency 0.5×, resignation 0×.

QWhat is the UP cap?

For 8 years or more of service, UP is 9 months of wages. Longer service does not increase the UP month count.

QWhen does UPMK start?

UPMK begins at 3 years of service (2 months) and rises to 10 months at 24 years or more.

QWhat does a resigning worker receive?

Under Article 51, a worker who resigns gets neither UP nor UPMK — only UPH (rights replacement).

QHow is the daily wage calculated?

The tool divides monthly wage by 30. In practice, fixed-pay components must be verified first.

QWhy can actual payment differ?

This is a pre-tax estimate. Employment contracts, CBA, company rules, industrial court rulings, and income tax can change the final amount.
