BPJS Employment through the Jakarta Cilincing Branch Office, recently held a socialization and registration activity for informal workers at GOR Rawa Badak, North Jakarta.
The activity targets people who are exercising or economic activity in the area. In addition to providing education on the benefits of social security programs, officers also acquire membership in the Non-Wage Recipient (BPU) category, such as traders, online motorcycle drivers, and other independent workers.
Head of the BPJS Employment Jakarta Cilincing Branch Office, Rita Mariana, said this activity aims to increase understanding of the importance of social security for all levels of workers.
"We want to build a collective awareness that job risks do not only belong to office workers. Independent workers such as traders in GOR areas, online motorcycle drivers, to freelancers have the same risks and are entitled to decent protection," said Rita, in a statement in Jakarta, Wednesday, May 13.
Also present at the event were the Head of the Participation Section and the BPJS Employment Participation Team for Jakarta Cilincing.
During this series of events, the public was given education on the benefits of the BPJS Employment program, ranging from Occupational Accident Insurance (JKK) to Death Insurance (JKM).
The positive response is seen from the many residents who are enthusiastic about consulting on the BPU registration procedure which is relatively easy and affordable.
Informal workers who have registered can now carry out their economic activities more calmly because they have a social safety net.
"Our presence here is a real commitment to ensure that all layers of workers, without exception, are protected by the state through the BPJS Employment program," concluded Rita.
