Law (general)
Indonesian term or phrase: Tak berjabatan
Frasa ini terdapat dalam akta cerai:
... Nona XXX (tidak kawin), 42 tahun, tidak berjabatan, bertempat tinggal di ....

Apakah "tidak berjabatan" di sini artinya tidak bekerja (unemployed), atau tidak punya jabatan resmi? Mohon masukannya. Terima kasih.

having no occupation
Explanation:

Saya menduga kuat bahwa tak berjabatan sekadar penghalusan "pengangguran", atau penghindaran "ibu rumah tangga" karena ini 'kan akta cerai, ditulis begitu malah dapat ditafsirkan mengakui kelangsungan perkawinan.

Anda benar bahwa frasa tersebut malah menimbulkan ketaksaan. Namun, karena ini dokumen hukum, sebaiknya ambil pendekatan yang lebih tegas saja: tidak mempunyai pekerjaan. Terjemahannya, having no occupation, diakui antara lain dalam direktori dan sensus penduduk serta akta perkawinan, sebagaimana contoh penggunaan.

My mother is listed on the marriage certificate as having no occupation; I guess her job as shop assistant for W H Smith didn’t count.
