Govt Targets ASN Remuneration Reform in 2025

TEMPO.CO, Jakarta - The Ministry of Administrative and Bureaucratic Reform is targeting to launch the new civil state apparatus (ASN) remuneration scheme in 2025.

Acting Assistant Deputy of Talent Management and Human Resource Development of the ministry Yudi Wicaksono stated that the new remuneration scheme still awaits the implementing regulation of ASN Law in the form of a Government Regulation on ASN Management.

Yudi mentioned that the implementing regulation will be drafted six months after ASN Law entered into force, or in April 2024. "[The ministry] hoped that after the implementing regulation is launched the new payroll system could be implemented," he said when called by Tempo on Wednesday, Nov. 22, 2023.

The ministry would start the trial for the new ASN remuneration scheme at the end of 2024, while the simulation stage is expected to finish in 2023. "The implementing regulation is finalized in April 2024, hopefully [the ASN remuneration scheme] is ready to be implemented in 2025, while the simulation is expected to finish this year and the trial will start in 2024," he said.

However, Yudi stressed that this target could only be realized if everything goes according to plan. "[New ASN payroll] is still being calculated by the Finance Ministry, since the new remuneration will not burden the State Budget, Local Government Budget, or the state spending," he said.

Earlier on Sept. 11, the Minister of National Development Planning Suharso Monoarfa mentioned that ASN remuneration reform is one of the priority agenda in 2024.
