CIANJUR - The Cianjur Regency Government, West Java, has cut the salaries of the State Civil Apparatus (ASN) to finance BPJS Ketenagakerjaan (BPJS TK) contributions for vulnerable workers such as farmers, odd jobs and pedicab drivers in Cianjur.
Cianjur Regent Mohammad Wahyu Ferdian said that cutting ASN salaries is a policy to prosper and ensure vulnerable workers who do not yet have BPJS Ketenagakerjaan.
"This is a form of gratitude and concern for ASN in the Cianjur Regency Government in helping and easing the burden on others, starting this month the program has been running according to the letter issued," he said as quoted by ANTARA, Thursday, June 5.
He explained that ASN salaries cut for vulnerable worker subsidies are adjusted to the number of workers accommodated by each ASN where the target of one ASN can help pay BPJS Ketenagakerjaan contributions for one vulnerable worker.
He hopes that not only one person but more can be helped, so that rough workers who are at high risk have guarantees when they have a work accident or other events.
"At least one ASN finances BPJSTenaga Kerja for one vulnerable worker, the value of salaries cut varies according to the group," he said.
