Abstract

The placement of Indonesian migrant workers (PMI) for ship crew members (ABK) who work in the fisheries sector is not accompanied by optimal protection and management in its implementation, which has an impact on the risk of inhuman and discriminatory treatment that threatens the safety and security of crew members. This study aims to analyze the responsibilities of the central government and local governments in the management of the placement of Indonesian fishing vessels and government policies to protect Indonesian crew members who work on foreign fishing vessels. This study uses normative research using a statutory approach and a conceptual approach. The government^s responsibility for the placement of Indonesian crew members is integrative in nature, which is divided into the division of responsibilities of the central government and local governments which must contain the boundaries of duties and responsibilities among related agencies. The role of the Central Government in the function of enforcement and law enforcement in overseeing the implementation of the placement of crew from start to return, responding to complaints, and resolving cases. The role of the Regional Government which consists of the role of the provincial government, district / city and village governments. The Provincial Government plays a role in the quality development function for prospective crew members and in the supervision of work provider companies. District / city and village governments play a role in the implementation of administrative functions for the crew candidates. The government^s policy on the protection of Indonesian crew members working on foreign fishing vessels is promotive, preventive, curative, and repressive in the form of economic, social and technical protection
