Event Background

Indonesia is ranked in the top-third of countries in terms of climate risk, with high exposure to all types of flooding, and extreme heat (The World Bank and ADB, 2021). The intensity of these hazards is predicted to worsen, as will the size of population exposed to such hazards. Indonesia is also specifically affected by sea level rise, ranking fifth in the world for the number of people that inhabits lower-elevation coastal zones vulnerable to sea level rise. Climate change might also have impacts on water availability, disaster risk management, urban development, particularly in the coastal zones, and health and nutrition, with implications for poverty and inequality. Increased exposure to a number of climate related risks will result in higher levels of loss and damage, and reduced purchasing power of the population, resulting in loss of revenues for businesses and government.

Under Indonesia’s G20 presidency, social protection systems have recently received more attention to address and manage climate risk as well as to ensure people’s needs are met throughout a just transition. While to date the focus has mostly been on social assistance or non-contributory programmes like cash transfer schemes to narrowly targeted poor households, this report focuses on three social insurance schemes managed by BPJS Employment. With the Covid-19 pandemic, we have seen that countries have resorted to different social protection measures to address some of the unprecedented livelihood and income losses affecting communities everywhere. With a predicted increase in the number of climate extremes and adverse impacts in the future, well-designed preventive, protective and eventually transformative measures will be needed, especially for increasingly exposed and vulnerable geographies like Indonesia. Under such circumstances, social insurance schemes can play a role in effectively covering workers, who are not the primary recipients of poverty targeted interventions.

The Adaptive Social Protection (ASP) approach seeks to bring together social protection, climate change adaptation and disaster risk management sectors to provide comprehensive protection to all in the face of climate risks. The ASP approach traditionally puts more weight on social assistance or non-contributory schemes as mitigation measures over social insurance. This report adds value to discussions on the ASP approach as it explore the role of social insurance or contributory schemes. Social insurance schemes can be recognized as part of the strategy mix that is taken to manage such risks, especially fill the coverage gap for ordinary residents, especially middle-class workers. As Indonesia progresses in developing its first ASP Roadmap, it is an opportune moment to stocktake the potential of social insurance schemes like the Pension scheme (JP), Employment Injury Insurance Scheme (JKK) and the Unemployment Insurance Scheme (JKP) in protecting workers during and after hazards, complementing social assistance schemes that primarily target the very poor.

ILO-GIZ project “Building Social Protection Floors for All - Phase II” conducted a study to explore the potential of social insurance schemes in mitigating the impacts of climate change-related shocks and stresses on incomes and employment of workers in Indonesia, and how these schemes can be expanded to provide affected workers with better protection through temporary adjustments in parameters (e.g., coverage, benefits and qualifying conditions) and operations. The study mainly focused on three schemes namely the unemployment insurance scheme (Jaminan Kehilangan Pekerjaan: JKP), an employment injury insurance scheme (Jaminan Kecelakaan Kerja: JKK), and a pension insurance scheme (Jaminan pension: JP).

In collaboration with the Government, workers and employers and with financial supports from GIZ and the Government of Japan, the ILO has facilitated capacity building and policy dialogues on social protection and climate change since early 2022. The ILO organized a webinar on social protection and climate change for tripartite stakeholders to build knowledge base on 24 November 2022, and shared a concept note for further discussion with Bappenas through Deputy Minister for Population and Employment on 23 April 2022. The ILO further discussed scopes and approaches with Bappenas through Directorate of Poverty Reduction and Community Empowerment on 2 June 2022. The research team shared draft reports and received valuable inputs from Bappenas through Directorate of Population and Social Security on 13 October 2022, BPJS Employment on 13 December 2022, BNPB from 16 December 2022, and tripartite stakeholders at the online consultation meeting on 19 January 2023. This study could not have been finalized without all stakeholders.

Finally, this forum will be the last event supported by the ILO-GIZ project “Building Social Protection Floors for All - Phase II” and will be also an occasion for tripartite stakeholders to contribute inputs to the RPJPN and RPJMN.

Objective

This forum aims to:

  1. Facilitate policy dialogues among tripartite representatives and experts on the potential of social insurance to mitigate climate shocks as well as potential challenges of workers and businesses;
  2. Share results of the study and recommendations to Adaptive Social Protection; and
  3. Facilitate discussion on follow-up actions to be taken by the Government, workers and employers (inputs to RPJPN and RPJMN).
