Abstract
Lecturers are professional educators and scientists with the main task of transforming, developing, and disseminating science, technology, and arts through education, research, and community service. Lecturers are those who work with the status of teaching staff in higher education units. A higher education unit is an education service group that provides education at the higher education level, in the form of a university. Higher education is divided into State Universities (PTN) and Private Universities (PTS). Therefore, when a PTS lecturer experiences layoffs, the arrangements are subject to labor legislation. The provisions governing lecturers as professional educators are regulated in Law Number 20 of 2003 concerning the National Education System, Law Number 14 of 2005 concerning Teachers and Lecturers, Law Number 12 of 2012 concerning Higher Education, Government Regulation Number 37 of 2009 concerning Lecturers. Meanwhile, the position of a lecturer in the context of being a worker/laborer has rights as the rights of laid-off workers as regulated in Law Number 13 of 2003 concerning Manpower, and Law Number 2 of 2004 concerning Settlement of Industrial Relations Disputes. This study aims to determine the position of private university lecturers for termination of employment. This research is normative legal research using a statutory and conceptual approach.
