Aruna facilitated the transition of 2,000 fishers to employees with guaranteed tenure under the Social Security Administrator for Employment (Badan Penyelenggara Jaminan Sosial Ketenagakerjaan/BPJSTK) in total, for the year of 2022 and 2023. Promoting awareness about the significance of BPJSTK posed a considerable challenge due to limited information and the mandatory monthly contributions required from fishers and coastal communities. However, despite these initial hurdles, active membership in BPJSTK could provide them with a sense of assurance at sea, as they were protected by Work Accident Insurance (Jaminan Kecelakaan Kerja/JKK) and/or Death Insurance (Jaminan KematianJKM). Aruna frequently encountered a distressing reality. Sasta Ardi, the East Kalimantan Area Manager, noted, "Frankly speaking, many fishers often require direct exposure to real-life cases. For instance, they were deeply impacted by the experience of a friend in their community who received assistance from BPJSTK after an accident. This experience significantly influenced their decision to join BPJSTK." He continued, "By April 2024, one of Aruna Fishers in Tanjung Jumlai, East Kalimantan, suffered an illness for approximately 3 months before passing away." The occurrence served as a driving force for other fishers in the area of Tanjung Jumlai to promptly enroll in the BPJSTK program. The late Aruna Fisher, known for his remarkable dedication, frequently garnered awards from Aruna for consistently surpassing the company's transaction targets. Ardi mentioned, "In the aftermath of the incident, fishers in Tanjung Jumlai were not only inspired to become BPJSTK participants, but also aspired to model their livelihoods after the late Mr. Biding, an esteemed fisher who, despite being 55 years old, consistently received recognition from Aruna." According to the official BPJSTK website, there are different procedures for claim services. Access this link to discover more details: https://lnkd.in/ggt_GeHu #SeaForAll
