THE STATE AS AN INSTRUMENT TO ACHIEVE SOCIAL WELFARE FOR WORKERS IN A LIFE WORTH HUMANITY

Abstract

The state for the Indonesian people is as a means for the welfare of the people, which is marked by the development of legal arrangements that protect the weak so. That during this period, the state began to pay attention to consumer protection and labor protection in organizing the prosperity of its citizens for the benefit of all the people and the state. The research method used is descriptive-analytical with a normative juridical approach through the literature and field research stages with data collection techniques through library research. Then the data were analyzed through a qualitative normative method without using numbers and mathematical formulas. The study results show that the functions of the state and government are getting wider, both in the political, economic, social, and cultural fields. This, of course, also expands the role of State Administrative Law to create a welfare state, so that it eventually becomes a social law state (social service state), because the state is burdened with public service tasks.
