OFFICES AND INDUSTRIAL WORKPLACES IN SUPPORT OF BUSINESS CONTINUITY DURING THE
PANDEMIC SITUATION

PART I

INTRODUCTION

A. Background
WHO has declared Corona Virus Disease 2019 (COVID-19) a pandemic. The transmission of COVID-19 in
Indonesia is now increasingly widespread across regions and across countries, resulting in an increase in the
number of cases and/or number of deaths. This situation is increasingly affecting Indonesia’s political,
economic, social, cultural, defense and security spheres, as well as the welfare of its people, such that a
comprehensive strategy and effort are needed to expedite the handling of COVID-19. Observing the ever more
concerning spread and transmission of COVID-19 in Indonesia, the Government - through Presidential Decree
No. 11 of 2020 - has declared Corona Virus Disease 2019 (COVID-19) to be a Public Health Emergency in
Indonesia which must be counteracted in accordance with statutory provisions.

In addition, the President has also promulgated Presidential Decree Number 12 of 2020 concerning the
Declaration of the Non-Natural Disaster in the form of the Transmission of Corona Virus Disease 2019 (COVID-
19) as a National Disaster, which states that the countering of the national disaster caused by the spread of
Corona Virus Disease 2019 (COVID-19) is to be carried out by the Task Force for Expediting the Handling of
Corona Virus Disease 2019 (COVID-19), as well as Governors, Regents and Mayors as Heads of the Task Force
for Expediting the Handling of Corona Virus Disease 2019 (COVID-I9) in the regions, who, in setting policies in
their respective regions, must heed the policies of the Central government.

The handling of the COVID-19 pandemic requires the participation of all parties, including the Central
Government, regional governments, the private sector and all elements of society in the territory of the
Unitary Republic of Indonesia. The business world and working community will play a major role in breaking
the disease's chain of transmission due to the large size of the working population and its high degree of
mobility and interactions due to work activities. Workplaces, which serve as a locus of interaction and for the
 gathering of people, pose a risk in terms of transmission that needs to be anticipated. Government Regulation
No. 21 of 2020 concerning Large-Scale Social Restrictions in the Context of Expediting the Handling of Corona
Virus Disease 2019 (COVID-19) states that one way in which Large-Scale Social Restrictions (PSBB) can be
implemented is by vacating workplaces. However, working life cannot be restricted forever and the economy
must continue to operate. To this end, following the implementation of PSBB and with the COVID-19 pandemic
ongoing, it is necessary to undertake mitigation and preparatory efforts for workplaces, as optimally as
possible, so that they can adapt through changes in behavior to the COVID-19 situation (New Normal). The
application of these guidelines is expected to minimize the risks and impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic in
workplaces, especially in offices and industries where there is the potential for transmission of COVID-19 due
to the gathering of large numbers of people in one location.

B. Objective
To enhance workplace efforts, especially in offices and industrial workplaces, in order to prevent the
transmission of COVID-19 among workers during the pandemic

C. Targets

These guidelines are intended for the Workplaces of Government Agencies, Private Companies, SOEs, and Provincial
and District/City Health Services.

D. Definitions

1. Close contact refers to person who has physical contact with, or is in a room with or visits (coming within a
radius of 1 meter) a patient whose case is classified as under surveillance or confirmed, within 2 days before
symptoms develop and up to 14 days after symptoms develop.

2. Mitigation refers to actions aimed at reducing or minimizing the impact of a disaster on society.

3. Asymptomatic Person, hereinafter abbreviated as OTG (Orang Tanpa Gejala), refers to someone who has been
in close contact with a COVID-19 patient (as confirmed by a PCR test) but has no symptoms.

4. Person Under Monitoring, hereinafter abbreviated as ODP (Orang Dalam Pemantauan), refers to someone
who has a fever (≥38C) or a history of fever; or symptoms of a respiratory system disorder, such as a cold/sore
throat/cough, for which there is no other cause based on a comprehensive clinical analysis, and in the 14 days
prior to symptoms developing had travelled or lived in a country/region reporting local transmission* or has a
history of contact with a confirmed COVID-19 case.

who has a fever (≥38C) or a history of fever; accompanied by cough/shortness of breath/sore throat/cold/mild
 to severe pneumonia for which there is no other cause based on a comprehensive clinical analysis, AND in the
14 days prior to symptoms developing had travelled or lived in a country/region reporting local transmission* or
has a history of contact with a confirmed COVID-19 case.

6. Probable refers to a PDP who has undergone a RT PCR examination, the result of which is still inconclusive.

7. Confirmed Case refers to a patient infected with COVID-19 as confirmed by a positive test result by means of
PCR examination

8. Self-Quarantine refers to the Restriction of activities/separation of someone who is not sick, but may have
been exposed to an infectious agent or disease, with the aim of monitoring their symptoms and detecting
cases early. This is to be done at home or somewhere else provided for quarantine.

spread of infection or contamination. This is to be done at home or somewhere else provided for quarantine.

PART II

PREVENTION AND CONTROL OF COVID-19 IN OFFICE AND INDUSTRIAL WORK ENVIRONMENTS

Measures are needed to prevent and control the potential transmission of COVID-19 in work environments.
This is to be carried out by all components in the workplace, from employees to the leadership level, as well as by
empowering all available resources. These measures are to be determined based on the level of risk associated with
the type of work and size of the business sector concerned, taking into account the following considerations:

1. Job/Work Factors
Types of jobs and their relationship to the potential danger of exposure to disease transmission need to be
identified in order to make efforts more effective. Such risk assessments are performed based on the potential
for exposure in the general environment while commuting, from co-workers and customers, as well as from
potential exposure due to travel to and from areas infected with COVID-19. Employees are classified into the
following risk groups;

• Low risk of exposure - Jobs which do not regularly involve dealing with/contact with members of the
public (customers, clients, or the general public) and other colleagues.

• Moderate risk of exposure - Jobs which regularly involve dealing with/contact with members of the public,
or other co-workers, visitors, clients or customers, or contractors.

• High risk of exposure - Jobs or work assignments that have high potential for close contact with people
 known to be infected, or suspected of being infected, with COVID-19, as well as contact with objects and
surfaces that may be contaminated by the virus.

2. Non-Work Factors

• Factors that may occur at home or in the community.

3. Comorbidity Factors

• There is the potential, especially for the elderly, for the presence of comorbidities such as diabetes,
hypertension, pulmonary disorders and kidney disorders, as well as immunocompromised
conditions/autoimmune diseases and pregnancy.

A. DURING THE LARGE-SCALE SOCIAL RESTRICTION (PSBB) PERIOD

1. For Workplaces
a. Management Policies in the Prevention of COVID-19 Transmission

1) Management is to constantly monitor and update developments in information about

COVID-19 in the region concerned. (This can be accessed periodically at
http://infeksiemerging.kemkes.go.id. and through Local Government policies).
2) A COVID-19 Handling Team is to be established in the workplace consisting of Leaders, a
personnel section, a K3 (occupational safety and health) section, and medical officers,
backed by an Official Letter from the person in charge of the workplace.
3) Leaders or employers are to provide policies and procedures through which employees
can report any case of suspected COVID-19 (symptoms such as a fever or
cough/cold/sore throat/shortness of breath) so that it can be monitored by the
designated medical officers
4) Positive cases are not to be stigmatized.

5) Work from home arrangements

Determine the essential workers who need to keep working/coming to work, as opposed
to employees who are able to work from home.
b. In the event there is an essential worker who needs to continue working during the Large-Scale Social
Restriction (PSBB) period:
1) At the entrance to the workplace, the temperature of the person entering is to be taken
using a thermogun. Also, before entering the workplace, a COVID-19 Risk Self-
Assessment is to be performed so as to ensure that employees coming to work are not
infected with COVID-19 (Form 1).
2) The working hours set are not to be excessively long (overtime) which will result in
employees having inadequate time to rest which may compromise the body's immune
system.

problem. This will give employees the knowledge to independently take preventive
and promotive actions to prevent transmission of the disease, while also reducing
excessive anxiety due to incorrect informationexcessive anxiety due to incorrect
information

2) Potential Subjects/Topics to be covered as part of the educational activities:

a) What causes COVID-19 and how to prevent it.
b) Recognizing the initial symptoms of the disease and actions to take when
 symptoms arise.
c) Hygienic and Healthy Behavior (PHBS) practices such as proper hand
washing, coughing etiquette.
d) Channels of reporting and examination if COVID-19 is suspected.
e) Potential education methods: putting up banners, distributing pamphlets,

(reactive) applying PHBS and physical examination with RT PCR 2 times on 2
distancing consecutive days at a health
(Form 5) facility/laboratory designated by the
Government.
If an asymptomatic person
(OTG)
who is confirmed positive
shows symptoms such as
fever (>38C) or
cough/cold/sore throat
during quarantine, then:
1. If the symptoms are
mild, the person is to
self-isolate at home for
14 days.
