JAKARTA - Only six months as a participant in the TASPEN Occupational Accident Insurance (JKK) Program, the late Nurijah, a Government Employee with a Work Agreement (PPPK) at the Riau Islands Provincial DPRD Secretariat, received protection benefits worth Rp832.87 million after experiencing a work accident that resulted in his death on Friday, July 10.

As a result of this incident, the heirs received the JKK Program benefits consisting of treatment financing of Rp. 649.56 million, compensation for death due to work accidents of Rp. 182.99 million, and the return of membership fees and old age insurance (JHT) benefits of Rp. 312.8 thousand.

TASPEN Corporate Secretary, Henra, said that the amount of JKK benefits is not only determined by the membership period.

"As a social protection program for civil servants, the JKK benefits are given based on the type and impact of the work accident experienced by the participants and the benefit rights regulated in the applicable provisions. This protection also covers accidents that occur in the employment relationship, including accidents on the way from home to work and vice versa," said Henra, in his statement, Friday, July 17.

Nurijah is a Government Employee with a Work Agreement (PPPK) at the Secretariat of the Riau Islands Provincial DPRD who has only been appointed as a PPPK and six months as a participant in the JKK TASPEN Program. On the way home after work, Nurijah was involved in a traffic accident after the motorcycle he was riding collided with a car. The accident caused him to undergo treatment before finally dying.

The Nurijah case is one of the illustrations of the implementation of the JKK and JKM Program benefits distributed by TASPEN throughout Indonesia. Until June 2026, TASPEN Tanjungpinang has distributed the benefits of the JKK and JKM Program worth more than Rp9 billion to 646 participants and heirs.

Nationally, up to the first semester of 2026, TASPEN has distributed the benefits of the JKK and JKM Program of IDR 652.7 billion to 50,392 participants and heirs.

In line with the President's Vision to strengthen an adaptive, inclusive, and sustainable social protection system, TASPEN continues to improve service quality through the development of a Center of Excellence to provide social protection that not only provides compensation, but also certainty of rights quickly, accurately, and easily for participants and families when facing work risks.
