JAKARTA - DKI Jakarta Governor Anies Baswedan will appoint singer Didi Kompot to be the art ambassador for occupational safety and health (K3) for the Capital City. He will confirm this mandate at a concert entitled "safety excellent" which will be held at the Britama Arena Sport Kelapa Gading, North Jakarta.

"On the 19th we will hold the Safety Excelent concert with Didi Kempot. Come, yes," said Anies after holding the K3 ceremony at GOR Soemantri Brodjonegoro, Kuningan, South Jakarta, Friday, January 17.

This effort to appoint musicians who are loved by 'Sobat Ambyar' (as Didi Kempot's fans call) maximizes the goal of work safety after holding a ceremonial process for the 2020 National K3 Day Commemoration ceremony today.

The ceremony participants consisted of Labor Inspectors from the Ministry of Manpower of the Republic of Indonesia and the Province of DKI, ASN Disnakertrans and Energy DKI, representatives from labor unions and professional-community organizations, as well as workers and construction companies and services.

In his remarks at the ceremony, Anies stated that the implementation of K3 in the 4.0 industrial revolution still faces many challenges. One of them is the readiness of Indonesian workers in facing digitalization.

Changing the industrial system to digitalization, said Anies, would result in the loss of several new types of jobs with digital and IT approaches.

"This phenomenon can have an impact on the emergence of new types of potential hazards. Therefore, a more effective, efficient and innovative control strategy is needed in preventing occupational accidents and occupational diseases," said Anies.

"We need to make leaps and breakthroughs with new innovations so that the implementation of K3 can continue to be strengthened in the midst of changes in society and an increasingly rapid industrial revolution," he continued.

Continuing, the Head of the Jakarta Manpower and Transmigration Agency (Disnakertrans) Andri Yansyah stated that his party would carry out other activities to intensify the K3 socialization. The socialization will go to companies, as well as socialization in the public space.

"We will disseminate information about K3 to the company. We will also socialize with the way we do a joint ride. We will also choose" Miss "Occupational Safety for women, because now many women are now K3 activists," Andri added.
