Giving victims of crime a greater role in the criminal justice system is a relatively recent development, a trend likely to continue and increase in the foreseeable future. In many jurisdictions it has led to compensation schemes funded by the state, support for victims of crime to help them recover from their ordeal, and involvement of victims in decisions as to how offenders should be dealt with. This book examines developments in support for victims of crime in Asia. It shows how, contrary to the widely-held belief that Asian jurisdictions shy away from a rights based approach, there has been considerable progress in support for victims of crime in Asia, especially in Thailand and Korea, where rights for victims of crime are entrenched in constitutional provisions, and in Taiwan and Japan. Support for Victims of Crime in Asia discusses international developments, the degree to which support for victims of crime is an import into Asia from the west, and developments in a range of countries, including Thailand, Korea, Taiwan and Japan, India, China, Singapore, Malaysia, Indonesia, and the Philippines.

Bekerja merupakan salah satu hak warga negara Indonesia yang diatur di dalam Undang-Undang Negara Republik Indonesia Tahun 1945. Negara memberikan jaminan kepada setiap warga negaranya untuk mendapatkan perlindungan serta kenyamanan dalam melakukan pekerjaannya. Perlindungan dalam bekerja sangat beragam, di antaranya tidak adanya tindakan diskriminasi, perlindungan keselamatan dan kesehatan pekerja, serta terpenuhinya hak-hak para pekerja. Tiap negara tentu memiliki aturan sendiri-sendiri terkait dengan jaminan keselamatan kerja dan kesehatan kerja bagi pekerja proyek konstruksi seperti di Indonesia dan Malaysia misalnya. Indonesia memiliki Undang-Undang Nomor 1 Tahun 1970 tentang Keselamatan Kerja, dan Malaysia memiliki Laws of Malaysia: Occupational Safety and Health Act 1994 atau Undang-Undang Keselamatan dan Kesehatan Kerja 1994 dan Factory and Machinery Act 1967 atau Undang-Undang Pabrik dan Mesin 1967. Bagaimana persamaan dan berbedaan regulasi tersebut, itulah yang akan dibahas dalam buku ini.
