Legal Efforts To Protect Franchisees Against Termination Of Employment Agreements

The purpose of this study is to find out the legal efforts to protect franchisees against termination of employment agreements. The research method used is the dualism of normative-empirical legal research whereby research uses normative-empirical legal case studies in the form of legal behavioral products. The approach used is a juridical approach and analytical technique using qualitative analytical methods. The results showed that the form of legal protection against franchisees in agreements with franchisees is contained in the Regulation of the Minister of Trade Number: 12/MDAG/Per/3/2006, in Article 7 that the term of the franchise agreement (franchising) is valid for at least 5 years. These terms provide legal protection to the franchisor as the franchisor, as such the franchisor cannot terminate the agreement at any time or at any time. It is necessary to immediately regulate regulations that directly or indirectly concern franchise business practices made in the form of legislation, such as the Antitrust or Antitrust Act and the current Business Competition Act
