Indonesia national social security system

Indonesia national social security system

Towards the implementation of the SJSN Law

As of October 2007, the National Social Security Council has not been established yet.
Reportedly, only the Chairman of the Council (Deputy of Coordinating Ministry of Social
Welfare - MENKOKESRA) has been appointed by the President, but the other Council
members (15 members from tripartite stakeholders and social security experts) have not
been appointed. However, preparatory works on social security and social assistance
issues are going on in relevant Ministries.


There was a case at Constitutional Court on the interpretation of state monopoly of
social security benefits in Article 5 of SJSN Law. From several sources, the court decision
was that local government can establish organisations that provide social security
benefits but that the article SJSN act in question remains unchanged.

Although there is a general recognition that the SJSN Law is a first major step to
develop a comprehensive national social security system in Indonesia, so far it has failed
to give meaningful impact except for health insurance cover for the poor. The significant
delay in the action to implement the Law has revealed seeming lack of coordination and
real commitment. It is hoped that the Government will develop the Road map as a
priority matter so that the implementation of the national social security system can be
envisaged at the earliest stage.

Implementation of the SJSN Law

 Implementation of the SJSN Law


The SJSN Law provides only a framework of the ultimate national social security system
in Indonesia

(That is why this law is called an “umbrella law”).

It does not mention the
transition measures from the existing segmented schemes to the ultimate system.

A number of substantial issues still remain to be worked out in the future. There is a vital
need to address the following issues:

(a) There needs to be a mid-term implementation plan (Road map) defining the
process of implementing the SJSN Law in stages. The Road map should clarify
the organisational structure of the SJSN and its impact on the existing social
security schemes. In line with the road map, strategic action plans should be
developed that describe the goals to be achieved for each stage of
implementation. It is critical that the road map and action plans should be based
on high degree of consensus and commitment at all levels of administration. The
National Social Security Council should monitor and evaluate the implementation
of the SJSN Act in line with the road map and action plans.

(b) Detailed provisions of the social security programmes need to be determined in
the Presidential Regulations. This will involve the development of policy options
for the benefit design (including the determination of the benefit parameters,
and the adjustment of the possible duplication of old-age benefits and pensions
benefits), determination of the contribution rates based on actuarial projections,
financing mechanism (including the determination of the adequate reserve level
and investment guidelines), and organisational arrangements.

(c) The administrative capacity for the existing social security organisations should
be strengthened to improve the compliance of the workers in the formal
employment sector and to prepare for the expansion of the workers in the
informal economy.

National Social Security System (SJSN) (Law No. 40 of 2004)

National Social Security System (SJSN) Law

(Law No. 40 of 2004)

In 2004, there was a major legislative achievement in the development of national social
security system in Indonesia. In 2002, a Task Force was created under Presidential
Decree No. 29 of 2002 to prepare draft legislation and a supporting academic paper for
a national social security system to provide more effective social security to all. Over
three years’ discussion, the Task Force developed a draft bill and submitted it to the
Parliament (DPR) in early 2004. On 28 October 2004, the Parliament approved the bill
after having made a number of revisions during the Parliament discussion.

The law provides a basic framework for the development of the social security and social
assistance and the detailed rules will be specified in the subsequent Presidential
Regulations. Key features of this law are summarised as follows:

• The law stipulates the principles and goals of the National Social Security
System. For the implementation of the National Social Security System, the law
stipulates the establishment of a National Social Security Council under the
President. The Council will be composed of 15 members representing the
Government, social security experts and employers’ and workers’ organisations
and its main function is to formulate the policies and provide supervision for the
implementation of the National Social Security System.

• The law anticipates the achievement of the universal coverage in a phased
manner. The law only states that it is mandatory for employers to enrol their
employees to the social security schemes and that the Government will provide
social assistance to the poor. The explanation notes to the law states that
“Although membership is mandatory for all citizens, its implementation will take
place in accordance with the economic capacity of the people and the
Government as well as the feasibility of the programme. The first stage will start
with workers in the formal sector, in parallel with voluntary membership of the
informal sector workers, including farmers, fishermen and the self-employed.”

• The existing four social security schemes (Jamsostek, Taspen, Asabri and Askes)
will continue to operate as social security carriers but the legal status of these
schemes will be changed from Persero (profit-oriented limited liability state
enterprise) to a not-for-profit, social security fund within 5 years transition period
i.e. by 2009. Additional social security carriers can be created as needed. The
law requires that the financial accounts of different benefit programmes should
be managed separately and prohibits the inter-programme fund transfer.

• The scope of the law covers five social security programmes, namely: (i) health
insurance, (ii) employment injury, (iii) old-age (provident fund), (iv) pensions,
and (v) death benefits. Furthermore, the law states that the government will
develop the social assistance for the poor and economically disabled, but its
details are entrusted to the Presidential Regulations that follow.

• With respect to financing, the law only stipulates that the contributions for the
social security programmes should be paid jointly by the employers and
employees but does not specify the contribution rates or how contributions are
shared between employers and workers.

The Government will subsidise the contributions concerning the social assistance
for the poor and the economicallydisabled.

In the first phase, the Government provides health insurance for the
poor and alike (the government allocated Rp. 3.9 trillion for 2005).
