OF
ACT OF THE REPUBLIC OF INDONESIA
NUMBER 3 OF 1992
REGARDING
EMPLOYEMENT SOCIAL INSURANCE

GENERAL DEFINITION

The development of the employment sector as a part of developing the human


resource is an inseparable part of the National Interest as the application of the five
principles of Pancasila, and as the embodiment of the Constitution, it is directed to
increase the value, prestige, skills, and self confidence to achieve the prosperous and
just community as the final objective of the national development.
Participation of the workforces in national development in ever increasing
accompanied by various challenges and risks. Therefore, it is necessary that the
workforces is given the proper protection, maintenance and safety, which will in the
end increase the national productivity.
The format of protection, maintenance and social affluence, is conducted in a form of
base foundation of social insurance program, based on joint cooperation, communal,
and togetherness as meant in the spirit and soul of the five principles of Pancasila and
the Constitution. Basically, the program puts an emphasis on the protection of the
workforce, who relatively are in significantly weaker position. Therefore, the
Entrepreneur is the prime responsible party, and morally obligated to provide
protection and well being of the employees. Besides, it is the nature of man to form a
family and to support them. Therefore, not only the prosperity of the employee is
concerned, but also of their families in order to increase the community’s affluence in
general terms, which must stay protected even when the employee has lost some or
all of his/her income as a result of social risks, such as occupational accident, death,
and old age.
In order to create a foundation base to increase the well being, protection and
prosperity of the workers, this Act will put emphasis on the conduct of employment
social insurance as the embodiment of social responsibilities as stipulated in Law No.
14/1969 regarding Basic Provisions of Workforce Employment.
Essentially, the social insurance program is meant to provide assurance of the
continuality of the family’s income to compensate for the partial or total loss of all
income.
The Worker’s Social Insurance program has several aspects, a.o. :
a. Providing the basic protection to support minimal life requirements of the
employee and their family;

_______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________PT. ERM INDONESIA

Act3-1992.PDF 14
b. As an appreciation to the workforce who have dedicated their energy and mind
to their company.
The implementation of the worker’s social insurance program as meant in this Act is
the application of Article 14 and Article 15 of Law No. 14/1969 regarding Basic
Provisions of Workforce Employment which includes Occupational Safety & Hazard
Insurance, Life Insurance, Pension Insurance, and Health Insurance. But recalling that
the objectives of the worker’s social insurance program are prioritized to those who
work for the Company, salaried individuals, for those individuals who works outside
of the work-relation with the company i.e. not working for a company, their social
insurance rights will be further regulated separately through a Government
Regulation.
The scope of coverage of this Act include:
1. Occupational Hazard Insurance
Occupational Accidents, or Occupational related illnesses are some of the risks
that must be faced by the working man. To compensate for the loss of partial or
all of their income as result from death, disability due to occupational accidents,
a Occupational Hazard Insurance is necessary.
Considering that the stadium of mental disturbance resulting from occupational
hazard is relatively difficult to assess, the insurance or compensation will only
be paid when the mental illness is causing permanent disability to the subject
worker and render him to be unfit for further work.
2. Life Insurance
The workers who lost their life outside of their lines of work will similarly result
in the loss of income, and will quite significantly affect the social economic lives
of the families that are left behind. Therefore, Life Insurance is extremely
important to reduce their burden, either in a form of funeral cost or cash
payments.
3. Pension Insurance
The coming of old age will result in loss income due to the loss of ability to
work. The loss of income will cause anxiety to the working man and will
seriously affect those who are still able to work, especially those with low
income. The pension insurance provide assurance of continual of income which
can be paid as a lumpsum, or periodically when the worker reached the age of
55 (fifty five years old) or satisfy the prerequisites.
4. Health Insurance
Health maintenance is meant to increase the productivity so that the employee
can give their best at work and is also a curative effort.
Considering that curative effort is costly and will further be a burden to the
employee if he has to pay the costs by himself, it is therefore deemed necessary
to provide the community with a worker’s social insurance program.
Other than the above, the Entrepreneur is obligated to maintain the health of
their employee which include promotive efforts, preventive efforts, curative
efforts, and rehabilitative efforts. Hopefully, this will help the efforts to achieve

_______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________PT. ERM INDONESIA

Act3-1992.PDF 15
a optimal level of employee’s health as the potential productive element of the
national development.
The Health Maintenance Insurance is not only provided for the respective
employee, but applicable to their families.
Considering that the worker’s social insurance is a cross-sectoral program with the
effort of increasing other social prosperity elements, the employment social insurance
program will be done step-by step and supportive to other community services efforts
in health, vacancy , safety and working hygiene.
Control and supervision of this Act, and its executive regulations will be done by the
Employment Control Officers as stipulated in the Act of the Republic of Indonesia
Number 3 of 1951 regarding the Establishment of Act of The Republic of Indonesia
Number 23 of 1948 regarding Employment Control and The Act of the Republic of
