Circle K is a franchise retail convenience from USA. The first owner Fred Harvey
build Kay’s in Texas at 1951. Few years after, Kay’s have change their name
become Circle K. Before 2003 Circle K have more than 2100 store, in 1996 Circle
K was take over by Tosco, in 2002 Circle K was take over by Conocco-Philips,
until 2003 the Alimentation Couche-Tard (ACT) the biggest retail convenience
store in Canada was take over Circle K. Under the ACT group, Circle K become
bigger and bigger about 6500 store in USA, Canada, Mexico, Japan, Macao,
China, Hong Kong, and Indonesia. Circle K have many-many worker, in
Yogyakarta. Circle K store have more than 200 worker. But the problems is Circle
K rules is not match with the Act Number 13 in 2003 about Labour affair, Circle
K not obey limit of work time. Every stores have 7 worker, every worker have
their own shift. First shift start at 7:00 in the morning until 15:00 in the afternoon,
second shift start at 15:00 until 23:00, and the third start at 23:00 until 07:00. Both
of shift for every worker have 1 hour rest. Every week, they have one day free but
not in the same day for each other. It means that every week they must work 8
hours x 6 days same with 48 hours. If we use Act Number 13 in 2003 about
Labour affair as a basic rules, in one week, the worker must not do activity more
than 40 hour’s but Circle K rules that every worker must do work activity until 48
hour’s every week. Circle K was not calculates the Over-time work, and that’s a
mistake. This paper try to find how the Act Number 13 in 2003 about Labour
affair protect the worker from Over-time rules.
