JAKARTA - The DKI Jakarta Provincial Government will implement working hours arrangements for the DKI Jakarta state civil apparatus (ASN) to reduce congestion rates in the morning and evening. However, a member of Faction A of the DKI Jakarta DPRD, Gembong Warsono, sees that there are other things that are more effective.
According to Gembong, instead of distributing working hours at 08.00 WIB and 10.00 WIB, it is better to require them to use public transportation to go to and from the office.
"Regarding working hours regulations, if I tend to ASN, there should be restrictions on the use of vehicles. It should be much more optimal than the implementation of working hours, it's enough from 70 thousand DKI ASN," Gembong told reporters, Thursday, July 13.
The obligation for ASN to use public transportation, seen by Gembong, can be an example for the community to imitate who has also switched from using private vehicles in their activities.
"ASN can be a driving force for the people of Jakarta to switch to public transportation. If that's the case, I think it's better in the context of long-term impacts, so that public transportation in the future becomes the life of the people and has become a character," he explained.
Previously, the Head of the DKI Jakarta Transportation Agency, Syafrin, said that the trial of regulating working hours in the capital city would still be carried out. However, this trial is only applied to employees within the DKI Jakarta Provincial Government.
In the future, the DKI Jakarta Transportation Agency will coordinate with the DKI Jakarta Regional Personnel Agency (BKD) regarding the formulation of the distribution of working hours to civil servants and non-PNS of the DKI Provincial Government.
"Indeed, from the results of the FGD, a kind of trial is needed for the implementation of working hours arrangements. Therefore, what will be done is in the DKI Jakarta Provincial Government," said Syafrin.

"In the initial stage, we are coordinating with the Head of BKD for the arrangement. So, first look at the legal aspects. Then, the arrangements so that the whole will be in accordance with the minimum work time set for 1 week," he continued.
Meanwhile, the discourse on regulating working hours in Jakarta for private office employees will be limited to appeals.
This was decided from a focus group discussion (FGD) study some time ago. According to the opinion of employers' representatives and office building managers, the distribution of working hours at 08.00 WIB and 10.00 WIB adds to their operational burden.
"They (private) are advised to arrange working hours, work time independently. Yes, it is an appeal," he said.
