regulations is regulated in Law No. 1 of 1970 concerning Occupational Safety and
Health, with the aim of providing protection to workers or laborers in carrying out
their work in the work environment. However, in this Law, companies that violate
the provisions of this Law can be given very light criminal sanctions and do not
provide justice if applied at this time. Therefore, a renewal of criminal law is
needed to increase the number of criminal sanctions with the aim of providing a
deterrent and justice effect for workers or laborers and to provide protection for
workers or laborers in the future. The purpose of this thesis, namely; First, to
determine the arrangements for the protection of occupational safety and health
for workers or laborers in the perspective of Law No. 1 of 1970. Second: To find
