The Worker's Social Security Agency, BPJS Ketenagakerjaan, has embarked on a nationwide campaign for what it calls a 'mental revolution' (GNRM), as part of its efforts to reshape the mindset of its staff in assisting workers and their families with prime services.
The agency stressed that its public service should be based on the values of
integrity, work ethics and cooperation to meet public expectations about basic
social security for workers and their families.
Moreover, the agency must become a trustworthy partner for entrepreneurs, while
at the same time playing its role in developing the country.
To this effect, BPJS Ketenagakerjaan proclaimed the National Mental Revolution
Movement, with the theme of "Work Ethics for Future Prosperity". The
theme was selected to promote speed and quality in service delivery to the
satisfaction of people served as well as to ensure workers' prosperity in the
future.
The declaration of the campaign took place in the parking lot of BPJS
Ketenagakerjaan headquarters in Jakarta. BPJS Ketenagakerjaan president
director Agus Susanto, in attendance of the board of directors and supervisory
board, declared the start of the GNRM campaign.
"We ensure that BPJS Ketenagakerjaan will exercise good corporate governance
principles in establishing professional and transparent organizational
management free from conflicts of interest to achieve prosperity for Indonesian
workers," Agus said.
The values of GNRM, comprising integrity, work ethics and cooperation, were in
line with cultural values and work ethics among BPJS Ketenagakerjaan officials,
he said.
Coordinating Human Development and Culture Minister Puan Maharani, who has been
appointed as the Coordinator of GNRM by President Joko 'Jokowi' Widodo, also
attended the GNRM declaration.
"Mental revolution is not merely one or two days of work, but a long-term
and continuous national movement. The hard work that we do today will determine
the fate of our children and grandchildren in the future," Puan said.
BPJS Ketenagakerjaan's commitment to
the GNRM campaign was symbolized by publicly assembling 1.001 puzzle pieces to
form the logo of GNRM BPJS Ketenagakerjaan.
Carried out by BPJS Ketenagakerjaan officials, the feat was acknowledged by the
Indonesian Museum of Records as the jigsaw puzzle with the greatest number of
pieces ever put together in the country.
BPJS Ketenagakerjaan general and human resources director Naufal Mahfudz
officially recited the declaration of GNRM, accompanied by BPJS
Ketenagakerjaan's Mental Revolution agents. That was followed by a
videoconference with regional BPJS Ketenagakerjaan offices.
At the same occasion, the heir of Bambang Irawan, the plantation director of PT
Satria Multi Sukses, publicly received Employment Injury Program (JKK) claims. Bambang
was the Wage Recipient (PPU) at the Pontianak office branch, who passed away at
his workplace.
The compensation given to his heir was Rp 3.58 billion (US$268,745), comprising
compensation for accidents at work, periodic compensation, funeral expenses,
pension and retirement security. (adv)(+)
