JAKARTA - The awareness of business entities in Papua to pay BPJS Employment contributions is still very lacking. This can be seen from the data submitted by BPJAMSOSTEK Jayapura Branch.
The head of the Jayapura Branch of BPJAMSOSTEK, I Ketut Arja Laksana, said that there were 98 business entities or companies in Papua that were not disciplined in paying contributions. The total arrears reached Rp 1.5 billion with a total workforce of 1,800 people.
"The arrears of dues are more than six months and each is above Rp. 10 million," said Arja Laksana, as quoted by Antara, Saturday, April 16.
According to Arja Laksana, if there are arrears, his party will be considered unable to quickly pay compensation. This of course will be detrimental to employees.
"If there is a risk in their work, the process will be slow even though the company is not in an orderly manner in paying dues," he said.
Currently, his party has collaborated with the labor inspectorate to anticipate problems caused by companies that do not comply.
"We have carried out coaching, have written to the company, even visited them," he said again
He also asked the company for orderly administration by paying dues on time. In addition, companies are also asked to register their workforce as a whole and report wages correctly.
Of course, this is done so that workers will get their rights in the event of a risk while working.
