Every job in this world is almost certainly no one was at risk . Like the proverbial wet water play , play fire charred . Accidents and occupational illness has become a risk any person who does the job , be it farmers , fishermen , factory workers , miners , and even office employees .
Throughout 2009 , the government recorded have occurred as much as 54 398
cases of occupational accidents in Indonesia . Although it showed a downward trend , but the figure is still high . Accidents at work in a sugar factory in Central Java, causing four workers killed in Tuban, East Java and one died and two others were wounded splashed hot dust while working in a cement factory is one of the few examples of cases of occupational accidents resulting in loss of lives even to eliminate .
Losses due to accidents is not only felt by the workers themselves , but also can have an impact on the surrounding community . Hence the need for the implementation of a safety and health management system (SMK3 ) workplace -based health paradigm .
It 's becoming an urgent need given the amount of labor in Indonesia in 2009 amounted to 104.49 million , work in the formal sector by 30.51 % , while 69.49 % worked in the informal sector , with 41.18 % of the distribution of work in the field agriculture , industry 12.07 %, trading at 20.90 %, transport , storage and communication of 5.69 %, 4.42 % increase in construction , financial services and 14.44 %, as well as mining , electricity and gas 1.3 % ( Press Release 2009) . From the data in 2007 are known workplace accident occured on construction labor and industry respectively 31.9 % and 31.6 % .
Prof . DR . Tri Martiana , dr . , MS . , Professor University Press Science Occupational Safety and Health which was confirmed on Saturday ( 30/1 ) at Rector Building Airlangga University , said that the health paradigm in the community is now beginning to fade . Health paradigm that is more emphasis on preventive perspective ( prevention ) and promotive health problem in saw still less attention in the field of occupational safety and health .
According to Prof . Tri , this time most of the companies prefer to pay for treatment and care for workers who are sick ( curative ) rather than seek a system of management of K - 3 are well within the company for the prevention of accidents and occupational illness . On the pretext of costs incurred for preventive - promotive efforts greater . Yet , if employment falls ill , it will be more losses will be borne by the company .
In addition to the loss of funds for the cost of care and treatment , loss of productivity, the company will also work . And for the government it is a burden , as more and more workers who are sick or disabled as a result of work will reduce the quality and quantity of human resources development for the betterment of the nation .
Factors basic cause of workplace accidents is the poor management of K - 3 , the absence of a firm commitment to implement SMK3 and work environment factors . These three things are cause unsafe action ( unsafe acts ) and the unsafe condition ( unsafe conditions ) which is a factor not directly cause accidents. While the onset of factors directly cause workplace accidents is the lack of risk control measures and the presence of potential hazards in the workplace . 80 % of accidents caused by unsafe actions , such behavior was not wearing a helmet construction workers as well as the habit of not wearing a mask and gloves during work by workers dealing with chemicals . To prevent unsafe action is to attempt preventive - promotive , equip the workforce of the knowledge of K - 3 and is supported by the K - 3 culture in the workplace .
As optimizing the health paradigm in the prevention of accidents and diseases carried by appointing a working relationship expert assistance for all K - 3 industry . Problems still facing today is the lack of human resources experts namely K - 3 as a builder SMK3 implementation in the company , due to the low numbers of college graduates or college field K - 3 .
"We need to increase cooperation of all sectors and professional organizations to provide input to the government in the form of groundbreaking efforts in the field of K - 3 , " said the woman born in Surabaya .
The breakthrough for example, provide recommendations to the government related issues Threshold Limit Value ( TLV ) is used to determine the potential hazards of a material exposure to physical , biological or chemical in the workplace . During the NAB was adopted from the National Institute for Occupational standards Safety and Health ( NIOSH ), which is actually less appropriate when applied in Indonesia , because the climate and conditions are different from Americans .
" There needs to be encouragement to conduct further research in this regard and then be recommended to the government " he added . Cooperation of various sectors in question , for example, between departments of agriculture, fisheries and the health department . The three agencies that can make the Joint Decree ( SKB ) as the foundation for efforts to provide protection for the K - 3 informal sector workers , such as farmers and fishermen are still less attention .
