Abstract
Digital transformation in the workplace has improved the efficiency of workforce data management but has also raised various ethical and legal challenges, particularly concerning personal data protection, employee privacy, and the use of digital technologies in industrial relations. These challenges require a data governance framework that balances organizational interests with the protection of workers' rights. This study aims to analyze the ethical and legal challenges of workforce data management in the digital industrial era and to evaluate the readiness of Indonesia's regulatory framework in protecting employees' personal data. The study is grounded in business ethics theory, personal data protection theory, and industrial relations theory. It employs a normative legal research method using statutory, conceptual, and library research approaches, with data analyzed through descriptive qualitative analysis. The findings indicate that while digitalization enhances organizational efficiency, it also poses risks of privacy violations, data misuse, and algorithmic bias if not supported by ethical principles, transparent data governance, and effective implementation of personal data protection regulations. Harmonizing national policies with international standards is therefore essential to fostering fair, secure, and sustainable industrial relations.

Abstrak
Transformasi digital dalam dunia kerja telah meningkatkan efisiensi pengelolaan data tenaga kerja, namun juga memunculkan berbagai tantangan etika dan hukum, terutama terkait perlindungan data pribadi, privasi pekerja, dan penggunaan teknologi digital dalam hubungan industrial. Kondisi ini menuntut adanya tata kelola data yang mampu menyeimbangkan kepentingan perusahaan dengan perlindungan hak-hak pekerja. Penelitian ini bertujuan menganalisis tantangan etika dan hukum dalam pengelolaan data tenaga kerja di era industri digital serta mengevaluasi kesiapan regulasi Indonesia dalam memberikan perlindungan terhadap data pribadi pekerja. Kajian penelitian didasarkan pada teori etika bisnis, teori perlindungan data pribadi, dan teori hubungan industrial. Penelitian menggunakan metode hukum normatif dengan pendekatan peraturan perundang-undangan, konseptual, dan studi kepustakaan yang dianalisis secara deskriptif-kualitatif. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa digitalisasi meningkatkan efisiensi organisasi, tetapi juga berpotensi menimbulkan pelanggaran privasi, penyalahgunaan data, dan bias algoritma apabila tidak diimbangi dengan penerapan prinsip etika, tata kelola data yang transparan, serta penguatan implementasi regulasi perlindungan data pribadi. Harmonisasi kebijakan nasional dengan standar internasional menjadi langkah penting dalam mewujudkan hubungan industrial yang adil, aman, dan berkelanjutan.
