JAKARTA - As an effort to improve performance, the DKI Jakarta Regional Owned Enterprise (BUMD), PT Transport Jakarta (TransJakarta) claimed to have collaborated with a number of clinics to check the driver's health. This is intended so that the driver or driver is in good health while on duty.

"We cooperate with Pratama clinics around the depot," said TransJakarta President Director Mochammad Yana Aditya quoting Antara, Saturday, December 4.

Not only that, his party admitted to establishing a clinic at the TransJakarta depot. However, Yana has not provided details on the number of primary clinics that are invited to cooperate and the number of health clinics in depots that are planned to be established.

"Surely this is all in the process of ensuring that the driver is healthy, can run well," he said.

Previously, Head of Commission B of the DKI Jakarta DPRD, Abdul Aziz, asked TransJakarta to provide health clinics at each depot to check the health of drivers before serving.

The provision of health clinics is considered important to ensure the health of drivers considering the human factor is one of the factors causing accidents.

The clinic at each depot is one of the recommendations given by council members when a TransJakarta bus accident occurred at the Cawang Bus Stop, East Jakarta on October 25, 2021.

The TransJakarta bus collision resulted in the death of two people, namely the driver and passenger. According to the plan, Monday, December 6, Commission B of the DKI DPRD will summon the TransJakarta management to clarify the series of five accidents in the last 40 days.
