South Jakarta PPSU Officer Dies in Work Accident, BPJS Ketenagakerjaan JKK Claim Paid Out in One Day
BPJS Ketenagakerjaan has expressed deep condolences over the death of Beno Prasetio, a Public Facilities and Infrastructure Handling Officer (PPSU) who passed away due to a work accident while on duty in the Pasar Minggu area, South Jakarta, on Wednesday (15/4/2026).
The presence of BPJS Ketenagakerjaan serves as an expression of empathy to the bereaved family while ensuring that all participant rights are received by the heirs.
BPJS Ketenagakerjaan President Director Saiful Hidayat stated that protection for workers must be truly present, especially when disasters occur.
“In situations of grief like this, BPJS Ketenagakerjaan must be present quickly, with full care, and ensure that all participant rights can be received by their family,” said Saiful in a press release received by Kompas.com on Saturday (18/4/2026).
Saiful explained that BPJS Ketenagakerjaan coordinated with relevant agencies to ensure the guarantee, verification, and claim settlement processes run smoothly.
“All administrative processes were completed in one day so that the Jaminan Kecelakaan Kerja (JKK) benefits could be immediately received by the family of the deceased,” he said.
As a form of protection against work risks experienced by participants, BPJS Ketenagakerjaan handed over JKK benefits amounting to Rp 281 million to the heir, Sri Suryani, who is the wife of the deceased.
According to Saiful, this quick and proactive step is part of BPJS Ketenagkerjaan’s commitment to providing proactive, responsive, easy, and accurate services to participants.
“For us, protection is not just about the amount of benefits, but also the speed and certainty of services. Therefore, we consistently strengthen proactive services and one-day service so that participants’ rights can be fulfilled immediately,” he stated.
In addition to ensuring the disbursement of benefits, BPJS Ketenagakerjaan also provided special assistance to the heirs. This was done considering that Sri Suryani has a hearing impairment, so all service processes were carried out inclusively and with full care.
“This incident reminds us that work risks can occur at any time. Therefore, we urge all workers, both formal and informal, to ensure they are protected by BPJS Ketenagakerjaan so that when risks occur, workers and their families do not face this situation alone,” he said.
Pasar Minggu Sub-District Head Guguk Tri Rahayu also appreciated BPJS Ketenagkerjaan’s quick response in ensuring the deceased’s family’s rights are fulfilled promptly.
A family representative for the heirs, Margiyono, also expressed thanks for the services provided.
“We from the family express our utmost gratitude to BPJS Ketenagakerjaan. We did not expect the claim process to proceed this quickly. As of today, the compensation has also been received by Mrs Suryani as the heir of the deceased,” he said.
