Pembaca yang budiman,
Ada satu kaidah dalam keselamatan kerja: Tak ada satu pun
proyek, tak peduli seberapa pentingnya, bernilai sebanding dengan
hilangnya seruas jari, butanya sebola mata, atau hilangnya nyawa. Bila
keselamatan telah menjadi pedoman utama bagi kemajuan, semua
pihak bakal meraih ganjaran dari pekerjaan yang dilakukan dengan
baik dan aman.
PT Vale sangat memperhatikan keselamatan kerja. Benar, data stastistik
menunjukkan turunnya angka kecelakaan kerja di PT Vale, namun
setiap minggu tercatat insiden yang berpotensi membahayakan
keselamatan kerja. Kecelakaan kerja ibarat gunung es, yang terlihat
hanya pucuknya, kata GM Emergency Response, Health, and Safety PT
Vale, Budiawansyah. “Setiap minggu ada update insiden, yang tidak
menyebabkan orang cedera, tapi bisa menyebabkan bahaya. Insiden
blasting yang membuat kaca kendaraan tambang pecah, misalnya,
secara injury record nol. Tapi secara potensi bahaya ada,” ujarnya.
Sebagai gambaran, pada kuartal II 2013, kasus injury menimpa 5 orang
pekerja. Sedangkan kecelakaan light vehicles 7 kasus. Namun pada
periode sama 2014, terjadi 1 kasus fatality.
Salah satu upaya PT Vale segera untuk membuat zero harm adalah
memberlakukan contractor safety management system (CSMS) pada
November 2013 silam. CSMS merupakan panduan pemeriksaan
kepatutan dan kelayakan suatu perusahaan kontraktor PT Vale dalam
mengikuti kriteria standar kesehatan dan keselamatan kerja. Sistem ini
sangat penting, sebab ada sekitar 3.500 kontraktor yang bekerja untuk
PT Vale. Artinya, hampir 60% pengerjaan proyek-proyek
PT Vale didukung tenaga kontraktor. Potensi bahaya kerja yang
dihadapi kontraktor sangat tinggi.
Halo Vale kali ini menyajikan edisi khusus seputar safety. Pelbagai topik
seputar keselamatan kerja dibahas. Redaksi berharap, pemahaman
kita mengenai keselamatan kerja tidak lagi karena ada pengawasan,
melainkan lebih jauh menjadi kesadaran. Prosedur yang baik, sistem
yang rapi, serta peralatan sesuai standar tidak ada artinya jika
karyawan tidak menyadari pentingnya menjaga keselamatan.
Seperti Pesan Keselamatan CEO PT Vale Nico Kanter pada 24
September 2014 silam. Dua fatality dalam 4 bulan terakhir dan dua
kecelakaan kendaraan di minggu yang sama merupakan kejadian
yang sangat menyedihkan. Sangat disayangkan, secara tragis kita
kehilangan dua rekan di antara kita. Sekali lagi, menjaga keselamatan
kerja adalah nilai utama perusahaan yang sudah seharusnya tertanam
dalam diri tiap karyawan.
Semoga sajian edisi khusus kali ini bermanfaat bagi kita semua.
Selamat membaca. •
Dear readers,
There is one rule about work safety saying: No project, no matter how
critical, is worth a lost finger, a blinded eye, or tragic loss of life. When
safety becomes the primary guideline for progress, all parties reap the
rewards of a job well done and done safely.
PT Vale is very concerned about work safety. No doubt. The data shows
the work accident in the Company is reducing in number, but every
week there is record on incidents that could potentially endanger the
work safety. Work accident is like an iceberg, which is seen only the
peak, said PT Vale’s General Manager for Emergency Response, Health,
and Safety Budiawansyah. “Every week there is always an update
about work incident. No casualty, but still it is potentially dangerous.
For instance, blasting that broke the glass of mining vehicle. Injury is
zero injury but potentially dangerous,” he said. The Company’s record
shows in the second quarter of 2013, accident caused 5 people injured,
while light vehicle incidents were 7 cases. In the same period in 2014,
there is one fatality case.
One of the efforts made by PT Vale to achieve zero harm is by
imposing Contractor Safety Management System (CSMS) in November
2013. CSMS is a guideline on the fit and proper test of a contractor
company of PT Vale in following criteria of work health and safety
standards. This system is very important given there are about 3,500
contractors working for PT Vale. It means, nearly 60% of the Company’s
construction projects are worked by contractor workers. And, these
workers deal with a very high potential work hazards.
This time Halo Vale presents a special edition about work safety. We
identify and discuss various issues on the related topic. Editors hope,
our understanding about work safety is a self-awareness rather than
an obligation because of supervision. Good procedures, organized
systems, and qualified equipment would be meaningless if employees
do not realize the importance of maintaining safety.
Just like Safety Message from PT Vale’s CEO Nico Kanter in September
24, 2014. “Two fatalities have been accounted in the last four months
and two vihicle accident in the same week were very unfortunate
incidents. We are sorry to have two of our comrades tragically passed
away. Keep this in mind, that safety is the main value of our company
which should be embraced by all the employees.
Hopefully, this special edition will be useful for us all. Happy reading.

Laporan Utama Jangan Terlalu Serius
Beberapa edisi terakhir Laporan Utama Halo Vale saya anggap
terlalu serius. Misalnya edisi 8, mengangkat isu nasional yang terlalu
berat karena mengenai pelarangan ekspor mineral mentah. Saya
kira, laporan utama Halo Vale perlu kembali memberikan porsi
yang lebih besar dengan tema-tema santai, bahkan kalau bisa lucu,
namun tetap bermanfaat bagi karyawan. Ini agar membacanya tidak
tegang.
Joni Rangan, Defense Security Service
Dari sembilan edisi Halo Vale yang rilis, sebenarnya kami mengangkat
isu serius atau berat baru pada dua edisi, yakni edisi 3, Mei 2013,
tentang fluktuasi harga nikel dunia dan edisi 8, April 2014, tentang
pelarangan ekspor mineral mentah. Selebihnya kami mengangkat
isu-isu yang lebih ringan, bersifat internal, dan tentunya bermanfaat
bagi pembaca. Misalnya, pada edisi 7-Desember 2013 soal persiapan
pensiun karyawan. Terima kasih masukannya.
Distribusi Tidak Merata
Halo Redaksi.
Mengapa distribusi Halo Vale masih sering terlambat? Bahkan di
departemen saya, kadang- kadang tidak tersedia. Padahal Halo
Vale sudah memasuki edisi ke-9. Saya berharap soal distribusi bisa
menjadi perhatian redaksi. Terima kasih.
Sufiyanto Gammara, Process Technology
Terima kasih kembali diingatkan. Soal distribusi memang masih
menjadi tantangan. Namun kami berusaha agar tiap edisi Halo Vale
terbaru dapat sampai di tangan pembaca rutin setiap dua bulan. Bila
edisi cetak masih terlambat, Anda dapat membacanya di versi digital,
dapat diakses melalui website PT Vale (www.vale.com/indonesia) dan
mengklik kolom publications. Terima kasih telah diingatkan.
Sejarah Vale
Bagaimana kalau Halo Vale memuat artikel perjalanan dari era
Inco tahun 1968 hingga era PT Vale saat ini. Mungkin bisa dibuat
berseri bila ulasannya panjang. Hal ini akan sangat menarik karena
membuat karyawan seperti bernostalgia dan mengetahui sejarah
perusahaan yang kita cintai ini.
Dahlan Landau, MEM
Terima kasih masukannya. Usulan Anda sangat menarik. Mengulas
sejarah bukanlah hal mudah, apalagi menceritakan hal-hal yang
belum banyak diketahui secara luas. Kami akan pertimbangkan usulan
Anda untuk edisi ulang tahun PT Vale di usia khusus, misalnya. •
Cover Story Should Not Be Too Serious
I think in its last few editions, the Cover Story of Halo Vale, were too
serious. For instance on Edition No. 8 which raised a national issue,
on the ban of raw mineral exports. It’s better for Halo Vale to give a
bigger portion for casual issues, or funny ones, if necessary, but still
beneficial to the employees. We do not want to read the magazine in
a tense.
Joni Rangan, Defense Security Service
From nine edititions of Halo Vale released, in fact we only raised a
serious or hard issue twice, namely in Edition No. 3, May 2013, on the
fluctuations in nickel prices and Edition No. 8, April 2014, on the ban
of raw mineral exports. The rest, we raised a lighter issues, internal,
and certainly beneficial for the readers. For instance on Edition No. 7,
December 2013, on the retirement preparation for the employee. Thank
you for your feedback.
Uneven Distribution
Hello Editors
Why the distribution of Halo Vale is still late? Even in my department
the magazine is not available while it has been entering Edition No. 9.
I hope the editors pay attention on distribution issue as well. Thank
you.
Sufiyanto Gammara, Process Technology
Thank you for reminding us. Distribution is indeed still a challange.
However, we try to make every latest edition of Halo Vale can be in the
readers’ hand regularly every two months. When the printed edition is
late, you can read in digital version which can be accessed via PT Vale’s
website (www.vale.com/indonesia) and click the publication column.
Thank you.
Vale’s History
I suggest Halo Vale to publish an article about its history since the
Inco’s era in 1968 until now becomes PT Vale. Maybe you can make
it in a series of articles. It will be very interesting because it will bring
us to the nostalgia as well as understand the history of the company
we love.
Dahlan Landau, MEM
Thank you for your suggestion and it is very interesting one. However,
to review the history is not that easy, let alone to talk about things that
have not been widely known. Anyway, we will consider your suggestion
maybe for a special edition for PT Vale’s anniversary, for example. •

laporan utama
Peduli Kolega,
Cegah Celaka
Fungsi dan penerapan Lock Out Tag Out (LOTO) wajib
dilakukan oleh pekerja yang melakukan pekerjaan
di setiap area yang berisiko tinggi
Keselamatan kerja bukan
hanya soal prosedur dan
standar ideal di atas kertas.
Dibutuhkan kesadaran dan
kepedulian sesama pekerja.
Keselamatan kerja masih menjadi isu penting di sektor
industri, termasuk industri pertambangan. Catatan
ILO (International Labour Organization) 2012, industri
pertambangan menjadi kontributor terbesar kecelakaan
kerja yang mengakibatkan pekerja meninggal atau terluka.
Memang, risiko industri pertambangan dinilai 10-100
lebih besar dibanding industri lain non-pertambangan.
Tercatat 2,4 juta pekerja tewas, 79% berasal dari sektor
pertambangan.
Diperkirakan kerugian material—seperti perawatanpengobatan dan pembayaran kompensasi karena
meninggal/cacat—mencapai 4% pendapatan bersih per
kapita secara global. Eropa Tengah dan Timur, Cina, dan
India menjadi wilayah pertambangan dengan jumlah
kecelakaan kerja tertinggi.
6
laporan utama
Penyebabnya kecelakaan kerja di sektor industri, termasuk
pertambangan, sebenarnya telah dideteksi dan terdapat
standar antisipasinya. Namun masih saja memakan korban.
Lalu, apa sebenarnya yang terjadi?
OSHA (Occupational Safety and Health Administration),
badan keselamatan dan kesehatan kerja Amerika Serikat,
menyebutkan, faktor manusia menyumbang 80%
penyebab kecelakaan kerja. Temuan itu dirilis tahun 1976.
injury terjadi pada 5 orang pekerja. Sedangkan kecelakaan
light vehicles 7 kasus, sementara pada periode yang sama
2013 hanya 4 kasus. Namun pada periode 2014, terjadi 1
kasus fatality. “Artinya memang masih ada persoalan di
aspek keselamatan dan perlu dibenahi,” ungkap dia.
Program Pembenahan
Beberapa hal masih menjadi “pekerjaan rumah” PT Vale,
seperti sosialisasi budaya peduli dan bekerja aman antarrekan kerja, kedisiplinan pekerja dalam menerapkan
standar dan prosedur kerja aman, dan menyempurnakan
standar dan prosedur kerja.
“Sebagai solusinya, kami menerapkan program-program
yang praktikal dan teknis seperti job cycle check (JCC).
Program ini bertujuan menyakinkan prosedur kerja telah
dilaksanakan di lapangan dan dilakukan safety observation
and inspection (SOI) bagi para seluruh pekerja,” ungkap
GM Emergency Response, Health and Safety PT Vale,
Budiawansyah.
Dua program tersebut diharapkan mampu melibatkan
para supervisor dan seluruh karyawan di jalur leadership
functional untuk melakukan pengecekan di lapangan.
Seorang operator dozer sedang beroperasi
di lokasi Konde, salah satu area kerja PT Vale.
Lima belas tahun kemudian, 1991, hasilnya tidak jauh
berbeda. Hasil menggembirakan baru tampak pada riset
terakhir OSHA tahun 2001—meski tidak signifikan—di
mana faktor manusia menurun menjadi 76%.
Bagaimana dengan industri di Indonesia? Data
Kementerian ESDM tahun 2012, lebih dari separuh (87
kasus) dari total kecelakaan kerja di Indonesia berasal dari
sektor pertambangan. Penyebab utama adalah lemahnya
pengawasan prosedur dan standar bekerja aman di area
kerja.
Keselamatan kerja juga menjadi perhatian utama PT
Vale. Menurut Hari Ananto, Senior Coordinator EHS
Improvement PT Vale, statistik kecelakaan di area
pertambangan perusahaan menunjukkan
penurunan. Pada Kuartal II-2013, misalnya, kasus

laporan utama
“Dengan cara itu diharapkan kebersamaan untuk peduli
bekerja aman terbentuk di antara seluruh pekerja, karena
hal ini juga menjadi problema,” tambah Budiawansyah.
Persoalan masih banyaknya pekerja yang sungkan
mengingatkan sesama rekan kerja untuk bekerja aman,
kata Budiawansyah, merupakan temuan dari Vale Global
Survey 2013. “Dengan ditemukannya fakta ini, kami
menjadi lebih fokus untuk mengubah mindset pekerja
sehingga memiliki kebiasaan positif dalam menjalankan
pekerjaan, dan sadar mengingatkan rekan kerjanya,”
ungkap Budiawansyah.
Persoalan lain adalah menjembatani isu keselamatan
kerja dengan tuntutan peningkatan produksi. “Selama ini
ada persepsi di kalangan pekerja kalau dua hal tersebut
tidak seimbang diimplementasikan perusahaan. Padahal
8
tidak demikian,” ungkap Senior General Manager Mining &
Exploration PT Vale, Basri Kambatu.
Hasil penelitian Norman S Jenning, Senior Industrial
Specialist ILO, tidak ada korelasi antara peningkatan
produktivitas dan peningkatan angka kecelakaan kerja.
Norman mengambil sampel penelitian dalam industri
tambang Rusia pada 1999. Tahun itu terjadi peningkatan
produktivitas kerja sebesar 16%, namun frekuensi
kecelakaan merosot 23%.
Sebaliknya, temuan Jenning menyebutkan adanya
relasi antara tingkat kecelakaan kerja dan merosotnya
pendapatan perusahaan. Pada 2005, kecelakaan kerja
laporan utama
dalam industri pertambangan batubara di Cina
meningkat 74%. Akibatnya, pendapatan perusahaan
merosot sebesar 36%.
Kunci Keberhasilan
Salah satu kunci penting keberhasilan keselamatan kerja
adalah soal budaya dan kepedulian antar-pekerja. Hal
ini juga pernah disampaikan John W. Drebinger Jr, pakar
dan praktisi keselamatan kerja pada pertemuan American
Society of Safety Engineers (ASSE) di Amerika Serikat,
Juni 2012 silam. “Kepedulian dan kesadaran bekerja aman
antar-rekan kerja ibarat standar kerja yang tidak tertulis.
Namun sebenarnya itulah yang merupakan reputasi
si pekerja dan keberhasilan perusahaan menjalankan
sistemnya,” ungkap Drebinger.
Frans Gunterus, konsultan DuPont Sustainable Solution,
rekanan PT Vale untuk merancang program Contractor
Safety Management System (CSMS), menegaskan,
melakukan perubahan budaya dan standar kerja aman
bukanlah pekerjaan mudah. “Risiko kerja memang tidak
pernah bisa dibuat nol. Namun perlu dikontrol sampai
ke tingkat serendah mungkin yang bisa diterima, praktis,
dan masuk akal. Karena itu, pendekatannya bukan hanya
personal-emosional, tapi juga persuasif-edukatif,” ujar dia.
Jadi, pekerjaan rumah bersama kita adalah bagaimana
membuat seluruh pekerja menunjukkan sikap positifnya
terhadap kebiasaan bekerja aman dan peduli sesama rekan
kerja. Istilahnya show me you care, make me aware. •

Care to Co-Workers
Annul the Accident
Occupational safety is more
than just ideal procedures and
standards of occupational safety
on paper. It requires awareness
and care among co-workers.
Occupational safety is still an important issue in industrial
sector, including the mining industry. The International
Labour Organization recorded in 2012 mining industry
contributed the largest accident in workplace resulting in
death or injured workers. Indeed, risks in the mining industy
are ranging at 10-100 percent higher than in other nonmining industries. Around 2.4 million workers were killed
and 79% from the mining sector.
The material loss—such as medical treatment and payment
of compensation for death/disability—is estimated around
10
Halo Vale | Special Edition 2014
4% from net income per capita globally. Central and Eastern
Europe, China, and India are among mining areas where
accident at the workplace reached its top rate.
The cause of accident in the industrial sector, including
mining, actually have been detected and provided its
standard anticipations. However, accident still take
casualties. So, what really happened?
The Occupational Safety and Health Administration
(OSHA), an occupational health and safety agencies in
the United States, reported human error contributed the
highest factor or around 80% as the causes of accident. The
finding was initially released in 1976. Fifteen years later, in
1991, the report was not much different. An encouraging
development showed in OSHA`s research in 2001—
although not too significant—when human factor dropped
to 76%.
cover story
Occupational safety is also be the major
concern for PT Vale. According to PT Vales`
Senior Coordinator for EHS Improvement Hari
Ananto the accident statistics in the area of
mining companies showed a decline. In the
second quarter of 2013, for example, the case of
injury occurred in 5 workers while light vehicles
accident were 7 cases. However, in the same
period in 2014, there was 1 fatality case. “It means
there is still a problem in terms of occupational
safety and it has to be addressed,” he said.
Improvement Program
There are still some “homeworks” for PT Vale over
the issue, such as socialization on a culture of
care and occupational safety among co-workers,
worker`s discipline in implementing the standard
and procedures of occupational safety, and to
enhance work standards and procedures.
“As a solution, we have implemented practical
and technical programs such as job cycle check
(JCC) which aims to convince that the working
procedure has been implemented on the ground
and safety observation and inspection (SOI) which
is applied for all workers,” said PT Vale`s General
Manager for Emergency Response, Health and
Safety Budiawansyah.
Special Edition 2014 | Halo Vale

cover story
The two programs are expected to engage supervisors and
all employees especially at the functional leadership level
to always do checking on the ground. “With that way of
working, there will a common awareness among all workers
to care for occupational safety, because this is still an issue,”
he added.
The problem is, he said, still many workers are reluctant
to remind their co-workers to work safely as shown in the
company`s findings reported in the Vale Global Survey in
2013. “Based on the finding we now more focus to change
the mindset of our workers to have a more positive habit
in carrying out their duties and remind each other among
co-workers,” he said.
Another problem is how to bridge occupational safety with
the demand for production increase. “There is a perception
among workers that these two issues are contradicting
each other to be implemented, while they are not, in
fact,” said PT Vales` Senior General Manager of Mining &
Exploration Basri Kambatu.
A study made by Norman S Jenning, ILO` Senior Industrial
Specialist shows there is no correlation between the
increase in productivity and increase in number of accident.
Norman took a sample of his research from the Russian
mining industry in 1999 when there was an increase in
work productivity by 16%, but the frequency of accident
plunged by 23%.
Jenning`s finding, however, shows a relation between the
rate of work accident and the falling of the company`s
revenue. In 2005, workplace accident in the coal mining
industry in China increased by 74% and as a result, the
company’s revenue declined by 36%.
The Key to Success
One important key to success for a occupational safety is
a culture and awareness among workers as said by John
W. Drebinger, an expert and practitioner on occupational
safety, in the American Society of Safety Engineers (ASSE)
meeting in the United States in June 2012. “Care and
awareness of occupational safety among co-workers is
like unwritten standard of work. But it actually shows the
workers’ reputation as well as the success of the company
in implementing its system,” he said.
Frans Gunterus, Dupont`s consultant for Sustainable
Solutions, who is partner of PT Vale to design programs
on Contractor Safety Management System (CSMS),
affirmed that to change the culture and occupational
safety standards are not an easy job. “The risk of work can
never be made to zero. However, it should be controlled
to the lowest possible level that is acceptable, practical,
and reasonable. Therefore, the approach is not only
personal-emotional, but also persuasive-educative one,”
he said.
Thus, our common homework is how to make all workers
showed their positive attitude towards occupational
safety habit and care for co-workers. The popular term is
“show me you care, make me aware”. •

Pencegah Insiden
JCC dan SOI hadir untuk membudayakan semangat saling
mengingatkan dan peduli keselamatan antar-rekan kerja.
Kaca kendaraan kotor dan tangki air wiper kosong, sepertinya
urusan sepele saja. Namun siapa sangka hal sepele itu telah
menimbulkan kecelakaan kerja, meski tidak memakan
korban jiwa. Tahun 2013 lalu, kendaraan antar-jemput pekerja
Departemen Mines terseret dump truck sejauh 64 meter di
jalur tambang Sorowako gara-gara kaca kendaraan kotor
sehingga penglihatan pengendara terganggu.
Di tahun yang sama, Basri, seorang pekerja kontraktor,
mengalami cedera serius di pergelangan tangannya setelah
terhunjam ranting tajam dalam aktivitas tree cutting di
area eksplorasi. Seandainya waktu itu ada pengawas yang
melakukan observasi lingkungan kerja terlebih dahulu, tentu
Basri tidak bakal mengalami cedera.
Dua insiden tersebut seolah mengisyaratkan masih lemahnya
disiplin pekerja dalam mengikuti prosedur keselamatan kerja.
Supervisor lapangan sedang melakukan
Job Cycle Check (JOC) kepada operator
dozer di lokasi.
14
Hasil penelitian Norman S. Jenning, Senior Industrial
Specialist dari International Labour Organization,
menyebutkan, 90% kecelakaan di tempat kerja
disebabkan manusia (human factors). Sementara
Kementerian ESDM menyebutkan, 86% kecelakaan kerja
akibat tidak mengikuti standar dan prosedur kerja aman.
Senior Coordinator EHS Improvement PT Vale, Hari
Ananto, mengatakan, area pertambangan dan
eksplorasi PT Vale yang seluas ribuan hektar di
Sorowako memang membutuhkan tantangan tersendiri
dalam manajemen keselamatan. Dua insiden tersebut
hanyalah gambaran kecil dari potensi bahaya yang
dihadapi pekerja Mining bila tidak menerapkan standar
dan prosedur kerja aman.
Area tambang
Catatan PT Vale, sedikitnya terdapat 10 bahaya utama
di area Mining, antara lain bahaya operasi alat berat
dan kendaraan, peledakan, slope stability, kondisi jalan
tambang, bekerja dekat air, clearing operation, hingga
penguncian. “Tapi di urutan nomor satu adalah antarjemput pekerja dengan menggunakan kendaraan
operasional dari dan ke lokasi pertambangan,” tambah
Hari. Sebab aktivitas ini bersifat kontinu, sekali jalan bisa
mengangkut delapan pekerja, dan kendaraan melintas
di jalan tambang, jalur kendaraan berat operasional
tambang. “Jadi bisa dibayangkan risiko yang dihadapi bila
pekerja tidak disiplin dan taat prosedur kerja aman,” Hari
menekankan.
Catatan EHS Department, pada kuartal II 2013 terdapat 5
pekerja mengalami injury, dan pada periode yang sama
2014 terdapat 1 kasus fatality. Kasus light vehicle accident
pada Juni 2013 mencapai 7 kasus, sedangkan periode
sama 2014 terdapat 4 kasus. Heavy equipment accident
pada Juni 2013 mencapai 11 kasus, sedangkan pada
periode sama 2014 meningkat menjadi 12 kasus.
Mengubah Budaya dan Perilaku
Untuk mengantisipasi seluruh potensi bahaya kerja, PT
Vale sebenarnya telah memiliki guideline atau “payung
prosedur” bernama Golden Rules. Guideline ini, diterapkan
sejak 2005, dilengkapi dengan prosedur yang lebih detail
menyangkut major hazard standard (MHS) dan critical
activity register (RAC). “Aturan tersebut tidak hanya
mengatur soal tree cutting, bekerja di slope, dan
sebagainya, tapi semua bahaya kerja. Persoalan yang
kita hadapi sekarang adalah bagaimana kita semua
bekerja mengikuti aturan tersebut. Masih ada gap di
sini. Inilah tantangan PT Vale,” tambah Hari.
Lantas apa upaya perusahan untuk mengikis lebarnya
gap tersebut? “Kita jembatani dengan dua safety
tools, yakni JCC (job cycle check) dan SOI (safety
observation and inspection). Hal ini untuk menekankan
apakah suatu pekerjaan sudah memenuhi prosedur
dan standar. “Pendekatannya adalah persuasifedukatif melalui dialog antar-semua lini dan saling
mengingatkan,” ujar Hari.
Sejalan dengan implementasi safety tools tersebut,
tetap dilakukan peningkatan dan me-refresh
sosialisasi pemahaman Golden Rules kepada
para pekerja. Dari hal tersebut diharapkan dapat
mengubah perilaku yang mengedepankan bekerja
aman sesuai prosedur, dan tentunya antar-pekerja
saling peduli keselamatan. •

Prevent the
Incident
JCC and SOI develop the spirit of mutual
care and remind each other among coworkers over occupational safety.
Dirty windshield and wiper’s water tank is empty sound
like a small issue. However, who ever thought this small
issue could create an accident? It happened in 2013 when
the shuttle bus for Mining workers was dragged by dump
truck to 64 meters in the mine lane in Sorowako only
because the bus’ windshield was dirty so the driver could
not see well. Fortunately, there was no fatality.
In the same year, Basri, a contractor worker, suffered a
serious injure as his wrist pierced by a sharp twig when he
did tree cutting activities in the exploration area. If only

his supervisors did observation on the work environment
before the work started, he may not get injured.
The two incidents show how weak the workers’ discipline
in following occupational safety procedures. A study made
by Norman S Jenning, Senior Industrial Specialist of the
International Labour Organization, shows 90% of accident
in the workplace are due to human error. Meanwhile, the
Ministry of Energy and Mineral Resources reported 86% of
accident in workplace caused by workers who do not follow
the occupational safety standards and procedures.
PT Vale’s Senior Coordinator EHS Improvement Hari Ananto
said the company’s thousands of hectares mining and
exploration area in Sorowako requires its own challenges
especially on safety management. The two incidents are
just a small picture of the real big potential hazards faced by
Mining workers if they ignore occupational safety standard
and procedures.
PT Vale identified at least 10 major hazards in Mining
areas, including the dangers related to operation of heavy
equipment and vehicles, blasting, slope stability, mine road
condition, working near water, clearing operation, and locking.
Mining Area
“The number one danger is operation of shuttle bus to
take and pick up workers to and from mining sites, why?
Because it is a continuous activity,” said Hari.
In one trip, he added, at least eight workers are on board
and the car is passing mine road which is also used by
heavy vehicles for mining operation. “You can imagine
the risk if the workers are not discipline and obey the
occupational safety procedures,” he said.
has been implemented since 2005, is completed with a more
detailed procedures regarding Major Hazard Standard (MHS)
and Critical Activity Registers (RAC). “The rules do not only
regulate about tree cutting, working at slope, and so on, but
all occupational hazards. The issue we face now is how do
we work based on those rules. There is still a gap and this is a
challenge for PT Vale,” he said.
EHS Department recorded in the second quarter of 2013
there were at least five workers injured and in the same
period in 2014, there was one case of fatality. There were
7 cases of vehicle minor accident in June 2013 and in the
same period in 2014 there were 4 cases. Accident on heavy
equipment in June 2013 reached 11 cases, while in the
same period in 2014 increased to 12 cases.
So, what does the company do to address the gap? “We
bridge it with two safety tools: JCC and SOI, in order to
ensure that a work has complied with the procedures and
standards. We use persuasive-educative approach through
dialogue in all lines and remind each other,” he said.
Change the Culture and Behaviour
To anticipate all of the potential hazards in the workplace
PT Vale actually has provided a guideline or “procedure
umbrella” so-called the Golden Rules. This guideline which
In line with the implementation of the safety tools, the
company remains to improve and refresh the understanding
of Golden Rules among to the workers. The efforts aim to
change the behavior of workers to put occupational safety
in accordance with procedures, and certainly to remind each
other among them about occupational safety. •

wawancara
Basri Kambatu:
Karyawan adalah
Emas bagi Keluarga
Berulang kali, Senior General Manager Mining & Exploration Department
PT Vale Indonesia Tbk ini menyinggung soal kesadaran mematuhi prosedur.
Seberapa patuh kita memakai helm atau sabuk
keselamatan saat berkendara? Seberapa besar pemahaman
kita soal risiko melanggar rambu lalu lintas? Begitu juga
ketika bekerja. Apakah prosedur kerja hanya dijalankan
dengan benar ketika ada atasan atau pengawas? Semua
pertanyaan itu bermuara pada kesadaran individu.
Dalam perbincangan dengan Halo Vale, Basri Kambatu,
menjelaskan seputar perbaikan yang senantiasa dilakukan
perusahaan guna meningkatkan kinerja keselamatan,
penegakan aturan, dan perannya sebagai leader untuk
memotivasi rekan-rekan sesama karyawan.
Lebih daripada itu, dia menegaskan bahwa kuncinya adalah
kesadaran. Prosedur yang baik, sistem yang rapi, serta
peralatan sesuai standar tidak ada artinya jika karyawan
tidak menyadari pentingnya menjaga keselamatan. Berikut
petikan wawancaranya.
Dari tahun ke tahun, target produksi
selalu meningkat. Itu artinya
intensitas dan beban kerja
bertambah. Apakah ada
pengaruhnya pada kinerja
keselamatan?
Tidak ada hubungan antara
peningkatan produksi
dan semakin tingginya
risiko keselamatan kerja.
Mau produksi banyak
18
atau sedikit, kadar kita me-manage safety tidak
berkurang, karena mengurus safety adalah usaha yang
berkesinambungan. Layaknya mengayun sepeda di jalan
tanjakan, kita harus terus mengayun, karena begitu kita
berhenti mengayun sepeda akan mundur ke belakang.
Adakah hikmah yang bisa diambil dari kasus
fatality yang menimpa rekan kerja kita?
Saya kira banyak hal yang dapat dijadikan pelajaran dari
kasus fatality yang menimpa rekan kerja kita. Karyawan
PT Vale dan karyawan kontraktor rekanan perlu me-review
kembali hal yang menjadi kelemahan dan memerlukan
improvement, seperti standardisasi kelengkapan safety
equipment yang akan dipergunakan menyelesaikan
pekerjaan di area operasi. Juga perlu meningkatkan system
control pemeriksaan kelengkapan equipment yang akan
dioperasikan untuk menyelesaikan pekerjaan di area kerja,
serta mengimplementasikan standar keselamatan kerja di
area kerja sesuai yang berlaku.
Manajemen sistem safety kontraktor dirangkum dalam satu
program yang disebut Contractor Safety Management
System (CSMS). Proses penyusunan dan implementasinya
sangat didukung semua eksekutif dan jajaran Manajemen
PT Vale. Juga disambut baik oleh para kontraktor
rekanan PT Vale, karena kedua belah pihak sangat
memahami dengan baik tujuan program ini.
Proses kemajuan implementasi program CSMS
ini di-review bersama-sama secara berkala
oleh tim penyusun CSMS, Project Manager,
dan manajemen area operasi. Semua itu
disemangati oleh eksekutif PT Vale, dalam hal
ini COO.
wawancara
Ada masalah klasik yaitu standar bagus di atas
di atas kertas, tapi implementasi dan follow up
masih lemah. Bagaimana pendapat Anda?
Hal yang menjadi fokus utama adalah bagaimana
implementasi program safety dilakukan secara konsisten
dan berkesinambungan agar semua berjalan baik, sehingga
tercipta proses operasi sesuai standar. Sedikit saja terjadi
penyimpangan implementasi standard procedure, risiko
terjadinya kecelakaan sangat tinggi. Program dan proses
transfer knowledge safety menjadi hal yang sangat penting.
Implementasi program safety di semua lini berproses,
karena membutuhkan kontribusi serius masing-masing
individu sebagai subjek dalam melakukan aktivitas
pekerjaan. Sangat baik sekiranya tiap individu melakukan
prosedur atas dorongan kesadaran, bukan karena merasa
diawasi atau karena faktor industrial.
Bila pemahaman karyawan masih pada level merasa segan
terhadap atasan atau takut dihukum bila melanggar,
maka perlu dinaikkan sehingga safety menjadi kebutuhan
tiap individu. Sebagai contoh, ketika berada pada posisi
bertanda “STOP”, seorang karyawan harus dengan ikhlas
dan sadar untuk berhenti sejenak mengamati sisi kiri,
kanan, dan depan sebelum melanjutkan perjalanan.
Tindakan ini dilakukan demi menghindari risiko kecelakaan
terhadap dirinya dan orang lain.
Bagaimana dengan mekanisme kontrol yang
dilakukan oleh perusahaan? Misalnya JCC.
Apakah ini membantu implementasi safety?
JCC adalah audit random yang dilakukan di lapangan untuk
mengamati seorang karyawan telah melakukan pekerjaan
sesuai prosedur atau tidak. Dengan melakukan audit JCC
secara berkala, bisa disimpulkan seberapa besar tingkat
penerapan prosedur kerja secara berkesinambungan, atau
seberapa besar prosedur kerja dijadikan budaya kerja.
Manajemen sangat yakin, sekiranya semua karyawan
melakukan pekerjaan didasarkan pada prosedur dan
konsisten, risiko kecelakaan bisa diminimalkan.
Sudah sebaik apa penegakan aturan
keselamatan di PT Vale?
Penegakan aturan keselamatan kerja sangat serius
dilakukan. Dimulai dari komitmen pimpinan puncak,
pengawas lapangan, dan karyawan. Sejalan dengan itu,
pengetahuan safety terus ditingkatkan dengan melibatkan
konsultan dan pemerintah sebagai narasumber. Perusahaan
juga konsisten menerapkan sanksi, bahkan pemutusan
hubungan kerja, bagi karyawan yang melakukan
pelanggaran safety yang dapat berakibat cedera minor,
serius, hingga fatality.
Kembali kepada kesadaran karyawan untuk
menjaga keselamatan. Apa upaya perusahaan,
khususnya Anda sebagai leader, untuk
menggugah mereka?
Mengubah perilaku untuk bisa secara sadar mengikuti
semua aturan safety berproses, butuh waktu dan
kematangan berpikir. Perubahan perilakukan ini, seorang
leader dituntut menjadi sumber inspirasi, panutan, dan
guru yang baik dan tegas dengan tujuan memberikan
perlindungan terhadap tim yang dipimpinnya.
Apa lagi upaya yang bisa dilakukan untuk
membangkitkan kesadaran?
Atasan atau leader harus memberi contoh dengan perilaku
dan tindakan safety yang benar. Juga membangun
budaya sesama pekerja tidak perlu merasa sungkan
untuk memberikan masukan terhadap teman kerja jika
melakukan pelanggaran safety. Saat ini, seorang teman
kerja masih enggan menegur teman kerja yang melakukan
pelanggaran safety. Seharusnya keselamatan diri dan
teman kerja selalu menjadi prioritas.
Sekali lagi, semua perubahan butuh proses. Namun,
sebagai manajemen, kita tidak berhenti berusaha dengan
tetap mengacu pada sebuah filosofi yang kita pegang,
yaitu me-manage safety ini seperti mengayun sepeda di
jalan mendaki. Bagi saya, karyawan adalah aset perusahaan
yang tidak ternilai. Karyawan sendiri adalah sumber mata
air kehidupan sebuah rumah tangga. Saya mengibaratkan
seorang karyawan adalah emas bagi keluarga yang tidak
boleh tergores sedikit pun. Apabila emas ini terganggu,
maka perputaran roda sebuah keluarga akan terganggu
juga.
Bisakah kita mencapai zero harm?
Sebagai perusahaan terbuka, PT Vale punya target itu
dan program menuju zero harm telah dicanangkan. Saat
bekerja, kita membicarakan sistem, manajemen, tools,
serta edukasi karyawan mengenai safety. Kalau semua
komponen itu berjalan dan terintegrasi dengan baik,
saya yakin kondisi ideal itu bisa tercapai. Kuncinya adalah
komitmen semua lini tetap terjaga, dan kesadaran akan
hakikat kita sebagai insan manusia perlu kita junjung baik. •

Interview
Basri Kambatu:
Employee
are the Gold
for Their Family
Many times this Senior General Manager of Mines & Exploration talks
about awareness of employees to obey the procedures.
How obedient are we to use helmet or safety belt while
driving? How big is our understanding about the risk of
breaking the traffic signs? Likewise, when we are working,
do we execute the procedures correctly only when our boss
or supervisor is around? All these questions are finally back
to the individual awareness of the employees themselves.
In a talk with Halo Vale, Basri Kambatu, explaining about
efforts taken by the company in order to improve the safety
performance, enforcement of rules, and his role as a leader
in motivating his fellow employees.
Furthermore, he emphasized the key of all is awareness.
Good procedures, organized systems, as well as appropriate
equipment are meaningless if there is no awareness
from employees about the importance of maintaining
occupational safety. Here is the except of Halo Vale`s
interview with him.
From year to year, the Company`s target of
production is increasing. It means the intensity
and burden of work also increase. Is there any
relation with the safety performance?
There is no relation between the increase in production
and the increase in risk of occupational safety. Either the
production is high or not, the level on safety management
will never reduce because safety is a sustainable effort.
It`s like biking on the uphill road, we have to keep biking
because once we stop it we will step back.
20
What lesson can we learn from the fatal case
that befalls our co-worker?
I think there are many things we can learn from the
fatal case of our fellow co workers, employee of PT
Vale Indonesia and employees of contractor partner
need also to review anything seen as a weakness
and needs improvement, such as standardization for
safety equipment used in the operational area. Also,
it is necessary to improve control system in checking
the completeness of equipment to be operated in the
workplace, and implement the applicable standard of
occupational safety in the work area.
The management system for contractor safety is part
of the program called Contractor Safety Management
System (CSMS). The process of its formulation and
implementation is supported by all executives and
management team of PT Vale Indonesia. The system is
also welcomed by contractor partners of the Company,
because both parties understand well the goal of the
program. The process of implementation progress
of CSMS program is reviewed periodically together
by CSMS formulator team, Project Manager and
the management of the operational area. This is all
supported by executives of PT Vale Indonesia, in this case
the COO.
Interview
It is always be a classical phenomena that
good standard is only good on paper.
Implementation and follow up are always
weak. What do you think?
The main focus is how this safety program implemented
consistently and sustainably, so everything goes well and
operational process is running based on standard. Even
for a smallest deviation on the implementation of this
procedures standard the risk for accident is very high.
Program and transfer process of the safety knowledge
become very important.
Implementation of safety programs in all lines proceed,
as it requires a serious contribution of each individual as
a subject in performing work activities. It will be perfect if
each individual performing the procedure at the instigation
of his/her own consciousness, not because of being
watched or due to other industrial factors.
If the awareness of employee appears only because his/
her reluctant to the superiors or the fear of being punished
then it must be upgraded. The awareness on the safety
must become the need of each individual. For example,
when we drive and there is a “STOP” sign then we have to
stop. Look carefully in the right, left, and front before we
continue to drive. It is good to avoid the risk of accident to
happen to ourselves or to others.
What about the control mechanism conducted
by the company? For instance JCC, is it helpful
for safety implementation?
JCC is a random audit conducted in the field to observe
whether employees have done their work properly
based on the procedures or not. By conducting this audit
periodically, we can conclude how far the work procedures
are implemented sustainably or how much it is used as a
work culture. Management is very confident, assuming all
employees do their work based on procedures consistenly,
the risk of accident can be minimized.
How good is the enforcement of safety rules in
PT Vale Indonesia?
We are very serious with this enforcement of safety rules.
It is started from the commitment at the highest level of
the company`s leaders, and then to the field supervisors
and employees. In line with this, the knowledge among
employees about safety is also upgraded by involving
consultants and the government as sources. The company
is also consistent in applying sanctions, and even dismissal
for employees who violate the safety rules which cause
injures, minor of serious until fatality.
Back to the awareness of the employees on
the occupational safety, what the company`s
effort, and you in particular as a leader, to
attract their awareness?
To change the someone`s behavior takes time and requires
maturity of thought. In this process, a leader is required to
be the source of inspiration, model and a good and firm
teacher with the sole of purpose of protecting his/her team.
What else?
A superior or leader must be the model for a proper
behavior and actions on occupational safety. Also, it is
necessary to build a culture among workers to remind each
other or give input to their co-workers who make violation
related to the occupational safety without feeling reluctant.
Until now, employees are still hesitate to remind their coworkers who violate the regulation on occupational safety.
It should not happen, because the safety of ourselves and
other workers must become priority.
Once more, everything needs a process. However, as part of
the management, I will never give up to make efforts that
refer to the philosophy that to manage occupational safety
is like riding a bike on the uphill road. For me, employees
are the valuable asset for the company. Employees
themselves are the spring of life for their family. Employees
are the gold for their family, so they should not be
scratched. If the gold is disturbed, the rotation of the wheel
of their family`s life may also be disrupted.
Is it possible for the company to reach a zero
harm?
As a public company, PT Vale has targets and programs
which have been implemented to achieve the zero
harm. In work, we talk about system, management, tools,
and education for employees on the safety. If all those
components run and integrated properly, I truly believe
this ideal condition can be achieved. The key is a consistent
commitment from all lines and awareness on our nature as
human beings that should be respected. •

TIPS
Agar Terhindar
dari Tanah Longsor
Tanah labil kerap ditemui di area pertambangan. Apalagi
ketika intensitas hujan tinggi. Banyak titik-titik perlu
mendapat perhatian khusus para pekerja, karena potensi
longsor atau tanah ambles lebih besar terjadi.
“Safety Alert” yang dirilis Health, Safety and Security
Department Vale Brasil 6 April 2012, ada beberapa tindakan
yang dapat menjadi perhatian pekerja agar terhindar dari
potensi longsor dan terkubur tanah yang labil.

Kontrol Ekstra di Area Rawan
Titik-titik yang memiliki timbunan
tanah dan atau pembuangan
batu merupakan area yang
berstatus rawan di area
tambang. Area-area ini
perlu kontrol dan
pemantauan ekstra,
khususnya musim
hujan, karena potensi
longsor lebih tinggi.
Pastikan bila kendaraan berat

TIPS
How to Avoid Landslide
Labile soil is often found in the mining sites, especially
during high-intensity rainfall. Many point of locations need
special attention from workers because potential erosion or
landslide and subsidence are bigger to happen.
4
“Safety Alert” released by the Health, Safety and Security
Department of Vale Brasil on April 6, 2012, stipulates
several measures need to do in order to avoid the potential
landslides and being buried in the labile soil.
1
Do Risk Analysis Tools
Ensure that all activities in the area which is sloping
land and full of rocks have been passed through
accurate and sustainable risk analysis tools.
2
Observe the Surrounding Situation
Make sure when heavy vehicles will be parked, the
area is completely safe. Observe the area around you
and make sure there is no potential landslides nor
land subsidence before the vehicles are coming close
and stopped.
3
Keep the Communication Radio On
Communication Radio is very important for
operational activities in the mining areas. Make sure
your radio works fine. Besides for emergency need,
radio is also to facilitate coordination and up date
information related to your working site in the mining
areas.
Workers Must Have Qualification
Make sure all mine vehicle operators are those who
have met the qualifications to drive and operate them.
Make special trainings for operator as an effort to
implement critical activities requirements (RAC) as one
of the safety standard in PT Vale.
5
Slope Area Meet the Standard
When the mine vehicle operators make slopes, make
sure the slope level or piles meet the standard of the
RAC 8 Specifications
6
Slope Stability Training
Make sure the operators who deal with the slope
stability in the mining area have followed Risk
Prevention Involving Slope Stabilization Training.
7
Extra Control in Prone Area
The points of area which have barrows and or stone
disposal are prone area in the mine area. These areas
need extra control and monitoring, particular in the
rainy season, due to a higher potential for landslides.
8
Do Your Work Based on Procedures
Please do your work in accordance with the prescribed
procedures and standards. Avoid any dangerous
action that risk your safety.

TIPS
Waspada
Tergelincir
dari
Tangga
Dump
Truck!
24
TIPS
Guncangan keras di dalam kabin akibat medan
tambang yang ekstrem atau tangga menuju kabin
dump truck yang licin, mudah membuat Anda
terpeleset dan jatuh. Sebuah perusahaan asuransi
di Amerika Serikat pernah melakukan studi, 25%
operator pernah jatuh dari kendaraan beratnya dan
sebagian besar menderita cedera.
Salah satu standar agar operator kendaraan berat
tambang terhindar dari terpeleset ketika naik ke
kabinnya adalah menaati prosedur ”Three Point
System” sebagai pengetahuan dasar.
Prosedur ini menyarankan untuk memanfaatkan
empat fondasi tubuh Anda, yakni 2 tangan dan 2
kaki dengan cara “tiga fondasi dalam satu gerakan”.
Misalnya 2 tangan 1 kaki atau 1 tangan 2 kaki ketika
ingin keluar-masuk kendaraan tambang. Dengan
menaati prosedur “Three Point System” ini, Anda
akan berdiri stabil dan kokoh meski di landasan
yang licin dan vertikal seperti tangga menuju kabin
kendaraan berat. Berikut daftar aktivitas yang
perlu dan tidak boleh Anda lakukan ketika menaiki
tangga kendaraan berat.
Lakukan:
• Gunakan sepatu safety yang memiliki sol
tebal dan baik. Jangan pakai sandal atau kaki
telanjang.
• Keluar-masuk dengan posisi kepala menghadap
bodi kendaraan.
• Pastikan cengkeraman Anda kokoh ketika
menggenggam handrails.
• Lakukan dengan pelan-pelan. Tingkatkan kehatihatian ketika cuaca buruk.
• Perhatikan permukaan di sekitar tangga
kendaraan tambang ketika Anda naik atau
turun.
Jangan Lakukan:
• Jangan lakukan gerakan naik dan turun dari
kabin kendaraan berat dengan terburu-buru.
Selain tergelincir, tindakan tersebut dapat
membuat Anda cedera seperti kram atau
keseleo otot.
• Jangan pernah berpikir untuk melompat turun, meski
Anda perlu buru-buru atau merasa kuat.
• Tangga adalah akses utama menuju kabin kendaraan
berat. Jangan pernah berpikir untuk menginjak ban
sebagai injakan untuk naik dan turun.
• Jangan gunakan rangka pintu sebagai pegangan. •
25
TIPS
Beware of
Slipping from
Dump Truck
Stair!
26
Violent shaking in the cabin due to extreme mine area or
slick stairs to the dump truck’s cabin can make you easily
slip and fall. An insurance company in the United States has
had a study showing that 25% of total operators ever fell
from their heavy vehicles and most of them injured.
One of standards for operators to avoid from slipping when
they go up to the cabin is to obey the “Three Point System”
procedure as a basic knowledge. The procedure suggests
you to utilize the four foundations of your body, namely, 2
hands and 2 feet by using “three foundations in one move”.
For example, 2 hands 1 foot or 1 hand 2 feet when you are
in and out of the mine vehicles. If you comply the “Three
Point System” procedure, you will stand stable and sturdy
even in slippery and vertical site like stairs to heavy vehicle
cabin. Here is the list of do and don’t activities for you when
you climb the stairs to heavy vehicle.
TIPS
Do:
• Wear safety shoes which are still in good condition
especially the soles are thick and good. Do not wear
sandals or bare feet.
• Exit-entry with the head position facing vehicle body.
• Make sure your grip is strong when holding handrails.
• Do everything slowly and carefully, and increase the
caution when the weather is bad.
• Always pay attention to the surface condition of stairs of
mine vehicle when you go up.
Don’t:
• Do not be in a hurry when you go up and down to and
from the cabin of mine vehicle. Not only being slipped,
you can also be painful due to cramp or muscle sprain.
• Do not even think of jumping down, even if you need to
rush or feel strong.
• The stairs is the main access to the heavy vehicle cabin.
Do not even think of stepping on the tire as a step to go
up and down.
• Do not use door frame as a handle. •

Cara Tingkatkan
Observasi
Keselamatan
Hal penting bekerja di area operasi tambang atau
pabrik pengolahan adalah melakukan observasi
lingkungan kerja. Hal ini penting untuk mengetahui
kondisi, potensi, dan tindakan antisipasi bila terjadi
bahaya di area tersebut. Namun melakukan deteksi
keselamatan area kerja juga perlu kiat agar efektif dan
efisien. Berikut enam caranya:
1. Kumpulkan Masukan Melalui Diskusi
Diskusi merupakan salah satu cara mengumpulkan
informasi tentang area kerja paling efektif dan efisien.
Anda, ibaratnya, memiliki banyak mata para pekerja,
sumber informasi paling riil karena berdasarkan
pengalaman dan pengamatan di lapangan. Metode ini
juga efektif sebagai perekat emosi, evaluasi, sekaligus
saling mengingatkan pentingnya bekerja aman antarpekerja. Di PT Vale, metode ini juga dilakukan oleh
departemen-departemennya melalui “Safety Talk” atau
“Safety Tool Meeting” yang dilakukan setiap pekan.
Safety training bertujuan
meningkatkan kesadaran
pekerja menghargai pentingnya
keselamatan dalam bekerja.
28
tips
2. Jangan Segan Bertanya
Anda tidak harus menjadi ahli untuk dapat
mengobservasi keselamatan area kerja. Anda
dapat mengumpulkan informasi dengan
bertanya. Ya, semakin banyak bertanya ke
siapapun di area kerja, semakin banyak
kondisi dan situasi suatu area kerja yang
dapat Anda ketahui. Dari hal itu, Anda akan
memiliki acuan untuk mencari solusi bila
timbul persoalan tentang keselamatan kerja
di area tersebut.
Bertanyalah dengan hal-hal yang sederhana
kepada para pekerja. Misalnya dimulai
dengan ”Pekerjaan apa yang Anda lakukan
di area ini?” dan dilanjutkan dengan “Potensi
bahaya apa yang Anda identifikasi dari
pekerjaan yang Anda lakukan?”, “Apakah ada
orang terluka atau cedera dari pekerjaan ini?”,
“Seperti apa prosedur keselamatan kerja di
bagian ini?”
3. Fokus pada Perilaku
Segudang prosedur bekerja aman
diberlakukan, namun bila pekerja tidak
punya perilaku taat dan disiplin akan nihil
hasilnya. Karena itu, dalam mengumpulkan informasi
dalam observasi, Anda perlu fokus memperhatikan
perilaku kerja aman para pekerja. Sedisiplin dan setaat
apa mereka mengimplementasikan prosedur tersebut.
Termasuk hal sederhana, seperti penggunaan alat
pelindung diri (APD) maupun prosedur bekerja di
area khusus (misalnya di tempat ketinggian, ruang
tertutup, area yang memiliki medan listrik, dan
sebagainya).
4. Semua Pekerja adalah Role Model
Peningkatan kesadaran bekerja aman di area kerja
adalah tugas dan tanggung jawab semua pekerja. Hal
itu perlu dipahami seluruh pekerja dari seluruh level.
Meski setiap area atau section memiliki leader, perlu
disadari seluruh pekerja adalah role model penerapan
bekerja aman.
5. Berkunjunglah ke Area Kerja Lain
Informasi yang valid adalah informasi yang memiliki
komparasi. Begitu pula dengan observasi program
keselamatan kerja dan lingkungan kerja yang aman.
Anda perlu membandingkan area kerja yang satu
dengan lainnya. Istilahnya studi banding. Hal ini
penting untuk mengetahui plus-minus penerapan
program keselamatan kerja di perusahaan Anda
dengan perusahaan lain. Semakin banyak area kerja
yang Anda kunjungi, semakin banyak referensi yang
Anda miliki sebagai dasar perbaikan program atau
sistem keselamatan kerja di tempat Anda.
6. Berilah Penghargaan bagi Mereka
yang Bekerja Sesuai Standar
Penghargaan tidak mesti berbentuk materi. Feedback
positif berupa pujian melalui dialog yang hangat
kadang lebih mengena di hati pekerja. Tentu hal ini
dapat membangkitkan budaya kerja aman. •

Six Ways to Increase
Safety Observations
One important thing to know when you work in the
operational area of the mine or processing plant is to
observe the working environment. It is important to know
the condition, potential, and anticipation actions need to
take when danger takes place in the area. But to do the
safety detection in the working site also needs tips to make
it effective and efficient. Here are the six tips:
1. Collect Information From Discussion
Discussion is one most effective and efficient way
to gather information about work area. It is like you
have many eyes from the workers, the most real
information resources because based on experience
and observations in the field. This method is also
effective as an adhesive of emotions, evaluation,
30
as well as as a forum to remind each other among
workers on how important to work safely. In PT Vale,
this method is also carried out by all departments
through programs called “Safety Talk” or “Safety Tool
Meeting” which is held every week.
2. Do not Hesitate to Ask
You do not have to be an expert to be able to
observe the safety of the work area. You can gather
information by asking. Yes, the more you ask to
anyone in the work area the more you know about
condition and situation of a work area. You will have
knowledge and reference to find solutions when
problems related to occupational safety in the area
really take place.
tips
Ask the simple things to the workers. For example,
starting with “What are you doing in this area?” And
continued with “What potential dangers you identify
from the work you do?”, “Is anyone ever hurt or
injured on work?”, “What kind of occupational safety
procedures applied in this section? “
3. Focus on Behaviour
Thousands of safety working procedures can be
imposed, but if the employees do not have obidience
and discipline to follow them, it is nonsense.
Therefore, in collecting information in an observation,
you need to focus on giving attention to safe work
behavior of the workers. How obidient and discipline
are they in implementing the standards of safety work
procedures, including some simple things such as the
use of personal protective equipment (PPE) and work
procedures in specific areas (eg at heights, confined
space, an electric area, etc).
4. Every Worker is A Role Model
Raise awareness to work safely in the work area is a
duty and responsibility of all workers. It should be
understood by all employees at all levels. Although
each area or section has a leader, we need to realize
that all workers are role model of an implementation
of a safe work.
5. Visit to Other Work Area
Valid information is the one that has comparison.
Similarly, the observation of occupational safety
programs and safe work environment. You need
to compare one work area to another. They call it
a comparative study. It is important to know the
plus-minus safety program implementation in your
company and in other company. The more work area
you visit, the more references you have as a basic
repair program or safety system in your place.
6. Appreciation for Those
Who Work as Standars
Appreciation is not always in a material form. A
positive feedback such as credit through a close
dialogue sometimes is more meaningful for workers.
Of course this can raise a safe work culture. •

Wawancara
Budiawansyah:
Safety adalah
Investasi
GM Emergency Response, Health,
and Safety PT Vale ini bicara soal
pentingnya leadership, sikap
genuine care, dan safety sebagai
investasi untuk membentuk
budaya kerja aman.
Membentuk budaya kerja nir-celaka bukan hanya soal
regulasi dan standar. Ada esensi yang perlu dipenuhi, yakni
budaya dan implementasi. Hal itu, menurut GM Emergency
Response, Health, and Safety PT Vale, Budiawansyah, hanya
dapat dicapai dengan tindakan proaktif antar elemen pekerja.
Juga sikap saling peduli sesama. Istilahnya, sikap positif
bernama genuine care. Seperti apa sikap positif tersebut,
dan apa yang dimaksud safety adalah investasi? Berikut
wawancara dengan Halo Vale.
Kehidupan adalah yang utama, demikian
salah satu nilai Vale. Bagaimana PT Vale
mengimplementasikannya sebagai budaya kerja?
Kehidupan yang dimaksud dalam nilai Vale itu bukan hanya
bicara tentang manusia. Tapi juga bagi lingkungan dan
makhluk hidup lainnya, misalnya soal kualitas air dan habitat
makhluk lainnya di sekitar operasi PT Vale. Inilah tantangan
besar kita. Kita perlu men-set strategi besar untuk hal itu.
Sedangkan soal keselamatan kerja, safety is about leadership.
Manakala leadership lepas sedikit, maka culture itu hilang.
Pasalnya, culture itu bukan tumbuh berdasarkan kebutuhan
untuk bekerja dengan aman dan kebutuhan perusahaan
untuk berbisnis secara berkelanjutan. Inilah big picture kita
saat ini. Perlu diubah mindset-nya, baik ke perusahaan dan
juga pemangku kepentingan.
32
Bagaimana strateginya?
Salah satunya adalah dengan menetapkan standar tinggi oleh
Vale. Program-program kita buat, misalnya melalui job cycle
check (JCC), yang bertujuan menyakinkan prosedur kerja telah
dilaksanakan di lapangan. Kita melibatkan para supervisor atau
siapapun mereka yang berada di jalur leadership functional
untuk bisa melakukan pengecekan di lapangan. Dengan
cara itu diharapkan kebersamaan untuk peduli bekerja aman
terbentuk di antara seluruh pekerja.
Apa ciri kerja aman yang telah menjadi budaya?
Adanya genuine care dalam diri seorang pekerja. Dia punya
kebiasaan positif dalam menjalankan pekerjaan. Budaya
bekerja aman otomatis ada di dalam dirinya. Misalnya,
ada pekerja melihat pekerja lain tidak sesuai standar atau
prosedur, dia akan mengingatkannya. Jadi dia tidak acuh. Hal
ini diketahui dari Global Survey bahwa masih banyak pekerja
sungkan menegur orang ketika bekerja tidak aman. Tentu
temuan ini baik karena bisa menjadi feedback dan bahan
refleksi perusahaan.
Bila genuine care itu terbentuk, inspeksi atau audit didasari
rasa kepedulian, keinginan untuk memperbaiki situasi, dan
menjaga keberlangsungan situasi yang telah baik. Bukan
sebaliknya. Memperbaiki sekadarnya saja.
Yang selama ini terjadi?
Vale berusaha menetapkan standar yang tinggi agar peduli
kepada karyawannya. Sebelumnya, kita hanya mencatat hal
yang berpotensi bahaya, misalnya karyawan menggunakan
motor untuk berangkat kerja. Kalau dulu, hanya dicatat sebagai
tindakan yang berbahaya. Tapi sekarang selain diingatkan juga
dicatat sebagai salah satu performance karyawan.
Tapi mengapa masih ada kecelakaan di lapangan meski
requirement dan standar Vale itu sudah bagus? Masalahnya ada
pada lemahnya fondasi budaya dan implementasi. Inspeksi,
audit dan sejenisnya masih dianggap sebagai menunaikan
kewajiban.
Seharusnya inspeksi berdasarkan potensi bahaya dan
frekuensinya. Setiap area bahaya utama itu ada level atau
ranking-nya. Ada bahaya yang bisa kita terima (acceptable risk)
tapi juga ada bahaya yang tidak bisa diterima (unacceptable
risk). Yang ini juga ada level menengah sampai ekstrem. Hal
inilah yang perlu disasar. Misalnya, inspeksi ke Utilities, bahaya
utamanya adalah kelistrikan. Tentu hal-hal terkait itu yang
diprioritaskan untuk diinspeksi. Bagaimana kepatuhannya, alat,
prosedur, dan orang-orangnya.
Wawancara
Begitu pula ketika di Mining. Bahaya utamanya adalah alat
berat, maka inspeksilah hal-hal tersebut. Blasting juga besar,
tapi frekuensinya tidak tinggi. Maka itu, untuk melakukan
inspeksi perlu ditimbang-timbang mana yang paling besar.
Bukan karena setoran jumlah inspeksi. Tapi istilahnya, I have
to care with certain potential hazard that could happen in the
certain area. Jadi implementasinya bukan dibuktikan di atas
kertas. Kalau diaudit good score, but not good result on field.
Anda mengatakan safety is about leadership.
Leadership yang seperti apa?
Leadership yang punya komitmen dan genuine care tadi.
Maka akan terbawa secara otomatis. Pada akhirnya safety
ini akan menjadi investasi jangka panjang bagi perusahaan.
Safety itu bukan soal kita kehilangan kesempatan
berproduksi atau menghasilkan uang atau barang, tapi
safety adalah investasi. Bila terjadi kecelakaan di suatu area,
operasi terpaksa dihentikan untuk melakukan assessment
karena regulasinya begitu. Untuk menyakinkan bahwa
area itu aman dan tidak terjadi peristiwa serupa. Ujungujungnya berimbas pada produksi barang dan jasa tadi.
Andai safety diutamakan dan terhindar dari insiden, tentu
produksi akan jalan terus.
Imbasnya juga tidak hanya ke perusahaan, tapi si pekerja
yang mengalami insiden tersebut. Orang bekerja kan,
ingin melihat hasil kerjanya dan memberikan manfaat
kepada keluarganya. Tapi kalau dia mengalami kecelakaan,
semuanya percuma.
Artinya selalu di bawah. Misalnya tahun ini kita patok 1,28,
ekuivalen dengan sekian kasus, kenyataannya saat ini juga
masih di bawah.
Tapi yang perlu kita lihat bukan di situ. Sebagai seorang
safety professional, ada “gunung es” yang terjadi di
bawah. Setiap minggu ada update insiden, yang tidak
menyebabkan orang cedera, tapi bisa menyebabkan
bahaya. Insiden blasting yang membuat kaca kendaraan
tambang pecah, misalnya, secara injury record nol. Tapi
secara potensi bahaya ada. Terus ada kejadian near miss
lain, tidak menyebabkan cedera, tapi menjadi sorotan.
Artinya high potential accident masih banyak terjadi.
Statistik tidak menggambarkan kondisi yang sebenarnya.
Hanya sebagai teropong dan feedback bagi perusahaan.
Jadi apa yang bisa dilakukan agar kondisi kerja
selamat dan aman itu tercapai?
Budaya ini butuh waktu. Seperti mata rantai. Selain itu,
sebagai manusia kita juga perlu peduli sesama. Perlu
proaktif. Kenalilah bahaya di area kerja, maka akan timbul
reaksi untuk menghindarinya. Kalau tidak, ibarat sleeping
with enemy. •
Salah satu yang sering kami ingatkan, misalnya, agar
pekerja menggunakan kacamata ketika bekerja di area-area
wajib kacamata. Apa gunanya membeli televisi dari hasil
kerjamu, tapi kau tak bisa menikmatinya karena buta akibat
kecelakaan kerja. Tidak sampai tujuan utamanya.
Bagaimana statistik keselamatan kerja
tiga tahun terakhir?
Kalau hanya melihat angka-angka, kita kelihatan baik. Dari
data yang ada, tingkat kekerapan insiden itu menurun.
Misalnya tahun lalu di-set up 1,5, kita bisa sampai 1,4.

Interview
Budiawansyah:
Safety Is
Investment
and Safety of PT Vale talks about
the importance of leadership,
genuine care attitude, and safety as
investment to establish a safe work
culture.
To establish a non-accident work culture is not just a
matter of regulations and standards. There is the essence
that needs to be met: culture and implementation. These
two, according to GM Emergency Response, Health, and
Safety of PT Vale, Mr. Budiawansyah, can only be achieved
by a proactive measure among element of workers.
Also, caring attitude among work fellow. The term for it
is positive attitude called genuine care. What is positive
attitude and what does safety is investment mean? Halo
Vale team interview him.
Life matters most, thus it is one value of
PT Vale. How does PT Vale implement
it as a work culture?
Life meant in the value of Vale is not just about human,
but also for the environment and other living things, for
example about water quality and habitat of other creatures
around the operational sites of PT Vale. This is our great
challenge. We need to set a grand strategy for it.
As for safety work, the safety is about leadership. When
the leadership is a little loose the culture will be lost. The
culture is not growing by the need to work safely and the
company’s need to make a sustainable business. This is the
big picture we are today. We need to change this mindset of
either the company andthe stakeholders.
34
Budiawansyah,
and Safety of PT Vale
What is the strategy?
One is by setting up a high standard by Vale. We make
programs, for example through job cycle check (JCC),
which aims to convince the working procedures have been
implemented in the field. We engaged supervisors or anyone
who is on functional leadership to check in the field. With that
way we expect a spirit of togetherness to aware for a safe work
will be formed among all workers.
What kind of safe work which has been a culture?
The existence of genuine care within every worker. They a
positive habit in working. A safe work culture has automatically
existed within them. For instance, one worker sees others
do not work in according to standard or procedures, he will
remind them. So, he is not indifferent. From the Global Survey,
it is found that many workers are still reluctant to remind other
co workers who do not work safely. Certainly, this is a good
finding as a feedback and reflection for the company.
If that genuine care is form within every worker, inspections
or audits based on a sense of caring, a desire to improve the
situation, and keep the good situation sustainable. Not on the
opposite. Fixing minimally.
Interview
And what has been going on so far?
Vale seeks to set high standards in order to care for their
employees. Previously, we only noted the potential
dangers, such as the employee uses a motor to go to work.
In the past, we only recorded as a dangerous act. But now,
besides warning we also noted as one of the employee’s
performance.
But why was accident on the field still happening despite
Vale’s requirements and standards are good? The problems
lay on the lack of cultural foundations and implementation.
Inspections, audits and the like are still considered as part
of fulfilling the obligation. We do inspections four times a
month.
Inspection should be based on potential dangers and
its frequency. In every main dangerous area there is a
level or rank of danger. There is a danger that we can
accept (acceptable risk) but also there is one we can not
(unacceptable risk) and it is still clasified from middle to
extreem level. This is something we need to address.
For example, inspection to the Utilities, the main danger is
electricity. Any matter related with it will be prioritized for
inspection. How is the compliance, tools, procedures, and
the people.
Similarly, in Mining the main danger is the heavy
equipment, then do inspection related to it. Blasting is also
a big potential danger but the frequency is not high. Thus,
it is necessary to consider which one has bigger potential
danger. It is not because of the amount of inspection, but
the term is “I have to care with certain potential hazard
could happen in the certain area.’’ So the implementation is
not merely on paper. If it is audited we get good score, but
not good result on the field.
You said safety is about leadership.
What kind of leadership?
A leadership with a commitment and genuine care. It will
be automatically driven. In the end, safety will become a
long-term investment for the company.
Safety is not a matter of we are loosing the opportunity
to produce or make money or goods, but safety is an
investment. When an accident occurs in an area, based
on regulations, the operation has to be stopped for
assessments. To ensure that the area is safe and no similar
accident to happen. Finally, it impacts to production of goods
and services. If safety is prioritized the accident will not
happen, and production is going on as usual.
If an accident happens, it impacts not only to the company,
but to the workers who experienced the incident. People
work because they want to see the result of their work and it
should bring benefit to their families. If they got an accident,
everything is useless then.
One thing we often remind to our workers, for example, is
they have to wear spectacles when working in areas with
ofspectacles obligatory. What is the point you buy a television
from your salary but you can not enjoy it because you are
blind dues to accident in workplace? The main goal is not
achieved.
How is the statistic result on occupational safety
in the last three years?
If you just look at the numbers, we are good. The data shows
the frequency rate of accidece is lower. For example, last year
we got 1.4 from the estimation 1.5. It means we got lesser
accident. This year, we set 1.28, equivalent to certain amount
of cases, and our year to date is also still below that figure.
However, we need to see more than figure. As a safety
professional, there is an “iceberg” in the bottom. Every week
there is an update incident. It does not injure our worker,
but it can cause danger. For example, blasting incident
that makes glass mine vehicles broken. No injury but there
is potential danger. Also some other near miss accident.
Nobody got injured but it become spotlight. It means high
potential accident is still many. Statistic does not present
a real situation. It is just as binoculars and feedback for the
company.
What can we do to make a secured
and safe workplace?
Culture takes time. It’s like a chain. Moreover, as a human
being we also need to care to each others. We have to be
proactive. Identify any danger in the work area, then there
will be a reaction to avoid it otherwise is like we are sleeping
with the enemy. •

Process Plant Area
Memadukan WCIP
dan Behavior Dialogue
Berkumpul dan berbagi. Mereka membangun lingkungan kerja
yang kondusif dan aman bersama-sama.
Di Process Plant dengan mesin-mesinnya tersimpan
bahaya yang siap meledak jika sikap hati-hati diabaikan.
Bahaya kelistrikan, panas, debu, penguncian, hingga
alat berat hanyalah beberapa di antaranya. Di area ini,
menurut Process Plant Senior Safety Coordinator EHS
Improvement Anggoro Rohadi, meski frekuensi terjadinya
insiden sangat kecil, bila terjadi, imbasnya sangat besar
terhadap proses produksi dan pekerjanya. “Karakter inilah
yang membedakan Process Plant dengan area kerja lain di
PT Vale,” ujar dia.
Anggoro memberi contoh, ketika Furnace 4 meledak pada
2013. Insiden tersebut bukan hanya membuat proses
produksi mengalami delay, tapi juga punya efek turunan.
“Kalau personal safety, orang bekerja menggerinda dan
kalaupun dia terluka, hanya dirinya yang merasakan.
Kalau di Process Plant, pengaruhnya bisa ke multiple
fatality,” ujar dia.
36
Selain potensi bahaya dari mesin-mesin pabrik, lingkungan
kerja di Process Plant juga menjadi perhatian safety
management. Misalnya soal suhu tinggi dan debu,
khususnya di area furnace. “Di area ini, kami tidak pungkiri
tingkat heat stress tinggi, area berdebu, dan waktu kerja
teman-teman juga dituntut kontinu. Hal ini menjadi
tantangan,” tambah dia.
Meski daftar potensi bahaya Process Plant berderet, para
leader dan pekerja tidak pernah gentar. Mereka justru aktif
memberikan masukan dan mencari solusi untuk mencegah
kecelakaan. Bahkan dalam implementasi safety process,
area ini menerapkan kerja sama lintas departemen, yakni
operation, maintenance dan engineering, karena bukan
hanya soal penggantian dan perawatan alat, tapi juga
modifikasi.
Process Plant Area
Ada pula kegiatan bernama behavior dialogue—biasa
disebut job cycle check—yang merupakan bagian dari
safety tools yang diimplementasikan PT Vale. Pada
pertemuan tersebut biasanya disandingkan
dengan SOI (safety observation and
inspection). Dengan SOI ini para pekerja
menjadi lebih paham prosedur dan standar
kerja aman. Mereka juga punya kebebasan
untuk menyampaikan kondisi kerja langsung
ke leader.
“Kalau di Process Plant, behavior dialogue ini digelar setiap
Selasa pagi. Banyak masukan yang riil dan aplikatif dari
para operator agar standar prosedur kerja lebih realistis dan
bagus ketika dimplementasikan,” ujar Anggoro. Perbaikan
elektroda dan dinding furnace merupakan contoh kecil
hasil dari behavior dialogue.
Guna mengoptimalkan lingkungan kerja yang kondusif,
PT Vale juga menerapkan working condition improvement
program (WCIP). Inisiatif yang telah direalisasikan sejak
dua tahun lalu ini bertujuan merancang dan membuat
lingkungan kerja lebih aman dan sehat. WCIP juga
bertujuan meremajakan infrastruktur PT Vale yang telah
berdiri sejak dekade 1970-an ini.
Bertahap
Implementasi WCIP di area skimming Furnace 2, misalnya
pemasangan alat pengembus udara segar (fresh air) dan
curtain (tirai plastik) agar pekerja mendapatkan udara lebih
bersih di area kerja. “Furnace 2 sebagai pilot project-nya. Di
furnace lainnya juga akan dilakukan hal yang sama. Namun
secara bertahap, karena untuk merealisasikannya perlu
disinkronkan dengan jadwal Furnace Rebuild,” tambah
Anggoro.
Impelementasi WCIP di area skimming Furnace 2 tersebut
juga merupakan hasil dari program Furnace Rebuild tahun
2012. Jadwal rebuild selanjutnya ditargetkan awal 2016.
WCIP juga melakukan perbaikan pada fasilitas lain seperti
toilet dan lunch room.

tambah Anggoro. •

Process Plant Area
Combine WCIP with
Behavior Dialogue
Gather and share. They build a conducive and safe work
place together.
The Process Plant where a lot of machines are put is a big
potential danger of explosion if cautious attitude is ignored.
Electrical hazards, heat, dust, locking, and heavy equipment
are just a few of those dangers. In this area, according to
Process Plant Senior Safety Coordinator EHS Improvement
Anggoro Rohadi, despite its frequency of incidents is very
small, however if it happens it takes a very large impact on
the process of production and also to the workers. “This
character that distinguishes between Process Plant with
other work areas of PT Vale,” he said.
Anggoro referred to an accident took place in 2013 when
Furnace 4 exploded. It caused not only the production
process delayed but also affected to its derivatives. “In case
of personal safety, if you work and get injured, only you
feel it. However, in Process Plant, an incident can affect to
multiple fatality,” he said.
38
Besides its potential danger from the factory machines,
work environment in Process Plant has become main
concern of the safety management. High temperature and
dust problem, particularly in the furnace area, for example.
“In this area, we do not deny that the level of heat stress is
high, it is dusty area, and working time or workers must be
continuous. This is a challenge,” he added
Despite of many potential dangers, the leaders and workers
in Process Plant do not flinch. On the other hand, they
actively provide feedback and seek solutions to prevent
accident. Even in the implementation of safety process,
this area applies cross-departmental cooperation, namely
operation, maintenance and engineering, because it’s not
just about replacement and maintenance of equipment,
but also modifications.
Process Plant Area
There is also a meeting called behavior dialogue or job
cycle check which is part of the safety tools implemented
by PT Vale. Usually the meeting also discuss about SOI
(safety observation and inspection) in which the workers are
expected to be more aware of safety work procedures and
standards. They can also freely convey their work conditions
to the leaders directly.
“In the Process Plant, behavior dialogue is held every
Tuesday morning. We get a lot of real and applicable input
coming from the operators who want the procedures and
standards of safety work to be more realistic and better
in the implementation,” he said. Improvement in the
electrodes and furnace’s wall are among samples resulted
from the behavior dialogue.
To optimize its work environment to be more conducive
PT Vale also implements a special program called Working
Condition Improvement Programs (WCIP). The program has
been practiced since two years ago which aims to design
and make the work environment safer and healthier. WCIP is
also intended to rejuvenate infrastructure of PT Vale which
has been established since 1970s.
Gradual Implementation
The implementation of WCIP in the area of skimming
Furnace 2, for example, includes installation of fresh air
blower and plastic curtain to make workers get a cleaner
air in the work area. “Furnace 2 is the pilot project. We will
do the same things in other furnaces gradually because we
have to synchronize with the schedule of Furnace Rebuild,”
he added.
The implementation of WCIP in the area of skimming
Furnace 2 is also resulted from Furnace Rebuild program in
2012. The next rebuild will be targeted in early 2016. WCIP
also makes improvements to other facilities such as toilets
and lunch rooms.
To optimize occupational safety at height in the area of
Process Plant, PT Vale has installed guarding (fence) in the
conveyor area, handrail, and the life line. “The initiatives to
make these physical improvements are coming from the
RAC (requirement for critical activities),” he said. •

TIPS
Permukaan Licin,
Si Pembuat Tergelincir
Lumpur, oli tumpah, genangan air, atau bahkan rasa lelah
bisa membuat Anda terpeleset atau kesandung. Hal ini perlu
menjadi perhatian, apalagi bagi Anda yang berada di area
tambang atau pabrik pengolahan. Di Amerika Serikat, 3 dari 5
pekerja pabrik mengalami cacat atau tewas karena insiden ini.
Poin-poin lain yang perlu diperhatikan:
1. Perhatikan area kerja Anda sebelum memulai. Apakah
di ketinggian, menggunakan tangga, atau di tanah.
Deteksi ini bertujuan untuk menganalisis apakah Anda
memerlukan peralatan khusus keselamatan kerja,
mengetahui potensi bahaya, dan tindakan apa yang perlu
diperhatikan di area kerja tersebut.
2. Fokus dan konsentrasi terhadap apa yang Anda kerjakan.
Bila kelelahan atau dalam kondisi tidak fit, sebaiknya
jangan paksakan dan sampaikan hal tersebut kepada
atasan Anda untuk mencari solusi terbaik.
3. Bila melihat ketidakberesan terhadap area kerja atau
alat bantu kerja, laporkan kepada atasan. Namun bila hal
tersebut dapat Anda perbaiki, pindahkan, dan sisihkan
sendiri dan tidak berbahaya.
4. Cukuplah berjalan, jangan berlari.
5. Bersihkan sepatu Anda bila solnya berlumpur atau
berminyak. •
40
Slipped Surface
is the Slippery Cause
Mud, spilling oil, puddles, or even fatigue can make you
slip or stumble. This must be a concern, especially for those
in the mine area or processing plant. In the United States, 3
of 5 factory workers are disabled or killed because of these
incidents.
Some points need to be noticed:
1. Look carefully your work area before you start to work.
Assess your working area carefully before you start
whether using stairs, walking at height or on the ground
This detection aims to analyze whether you need any
special safety equipment, know the potential dangers, and
know what actions need to be considered in the work area.
2. Focus and concentration working. If you are tired or unfit,
do not push yourself to work. Tell your supervisor in order
the best solutution. Unfit condition can disturb your
consentration.
3. If you found something unusual in the work area or
working tools, consult to your supervisor.
4. Just walk, do not run.
5. Clean up your shoes if there is mud or oil. •

Suasana duka menyelimuti PT Vale. Dua
karyawannya meninggal dunia pada semester
pertama 2014. Pertama, Simon Yaman Sio dari
General Facilities & Service Department, yang
mengalami kecelakaan sepeda motor di poros
jalan Sorowako-Wasuponda ketika pulang
kerja pada 12 Februari 2014. Kedua, Lukas
Bandaso dari Mines & Exploration Department,
yang tewas akibat longsoran tanah di area
pertambangan Petea B1-Area Barat pada 10 Mei
2014. “Enam bulan terakhir merupakan masa
paling menantang bagi perusahaan dan keluarga
kita karena peristiwa tragis tersebut,” ujar Chief
Operating Officer PT Vale, Josimar Pires.
Dari hasil investigasi, kedua insiden tersebut
terjadi akibat minimnya menjalankan prosedur
kerja sebagaimana mestinya. “Hal ini merupakan
kenyataan yang kita hadapi berulang kali. Itu
tidak bisa dipungkiri,” tambah Josimar.
Josimar menyayangkan masih ada rekan kerja
yang melakukan pekerjaan tanpa memikirkan
risiko yang dihadapi. “Tentu hal ini masalah
yang serius bagi kita, karena kita telah dianggap
sebagai perusahaan yang matang dan mampu
menjalankan disiplin operasional,” ujar dia.
Perangkat Keselamatan
Mengutip “Message from Peter Poppinga” yang dirilis
Management Bulletin pertengahan Agustus lalu, kinerja
keselamatan Vale Base Metal—di mana PT Vale masuk di
dalamnya—pada kuartal II-2014 berstatus stagnan. Namun
fakta ini, menurut Direktur Eksekutif Base Metals Vale ini,
perlu dijadikan momentum untuk mewujudkan zero harm.
Beragam upaya telah dilakukan PT Vale untuk mewujudkan
komitmen tersebut. Mulai dari inovasi, otomasi alat
khususnya di pabrik pengolahan, hingga paradigma
baru dalam bekerja aman. Beberapa di antaranya dengan
meningkatkan frekuensi kegiatan safety talk, menambah
form pengecekan seperti SOI (safety observation &
inspection), dan JCC (job cycle check). “Kita memang tidak
mungkin meniadakan seluruh risiko. Karena itu, kita perlu
memiliki perangkat manajemen risiko dan kapabilitas yang
lebih baik. Para pimpinan tetap terus mengingatkan timnya
untuk bekerja aman melalui dialog-dialog untuk mengelola
risiko,” tambah Josimar.
Salah satu inovasi terbaru PT Vale dalam meningkatkan
kesadaran bekerja aman adalah peluncuran personal
activity risk analysis (PARA). Perangkat baru untuk
mendukung pekerja dalam meminimalisasi risiko
bahaya kerja ini dirilis bertepatan dengan Global Safety
Prevention Week pada 11-15 Agustus 2014 silam.
Identifikasi dan Komunikasi
PARA berbentuk buku saku, berisi petunjuk bagi pekerja
dalam mengidentifikasi risiko dan bahaya berdasarkan
major hazard standard (MHS) sebelum mereka
menjalankan pekerjaan. Terdapat 12 fokus MHS yang
menjadi check list PARA, antara lain bekerja di ketinggian,
peledakan, kelistrikan, dan bahan berbahaya. PARA juga
memberikan penjelasan tentang faktor-faktor risiko
suatu aktivitas kerja dan tindakan pencegahannya.
Format PARA hampir sama dengan formulir check
list SOI, namun kontennya lebih detail. Buku saku
ini juga dilengkapi tips antisipasi suatu bahaya dan
diperuntukan bagi seluruh level pekerja PT Vale. Berbeda
dengan SOI yang fungsi dan peruntukannya untuk para
leader ketika melakukan inspeksi. PARA nantinya juga
dibagikan kepada karyawan kontraktor, termasuk para
tamu PT Vale.
“PARA ini seperti catatan pekerja terhadap bahaya atau
risiko di tempat mereka berada atau bekerja. Caranya,
luangkan waktu 1-3 menit untuk memeriksa bahaya
dan risiko yang mungkin dapat muncul di tempat kerja
Anda melalui buku PARA,” ujar GM Emergency Response,
Health & Safety, Budiawansyah.
Chief Operating Officer PT Vale,
Josimar Pires
Selain membantu identifikasi bahaya, PARA ibarat
“jembatan komunikasi” antara pekerja dan leader
mereka. “Semangat tools ini adalah menanamkan
proaktif, dua arah, dan bottom up. “Bertanyalah kepada
pengawas jika Anda ragu-ragu atau belum aman
memulai pekerjaan. Jika ada hal yang tidak dapat
diselesaikan atau kondisi tidak aman yang tidak bisa
diselesaikan di tempat Anda bekerja, maka hubungi
pengawas untuk ditindaklanjuti,” tambah Budiawansyah.
Kehadiran PARA sekaligus menggantikan hazard report
form yang dinilai kurang efektif. •

Josimar Pires repeatedly reminds all workers of PT Vale to improve their discipline on occupational safety.
PT Vale is in grief. Its two employees died in

“The past six months is the most
challenging period for the company
and our families because of the tragic
accident,” said Chief Operating Officer of PT
Vale, Josimar Pires.
Based on the investigation, it is found that both incidents
occurred due to among others lack of discipline in
implementing safety procedures. “This is the reality we
have to deal with repeatedly. It’s undeniable, unfortunately,”
he said.
He concerns that there are still workers who work without
thinking about the risks they may deal with. “Certainly, this
is a serious problem for us, because we have been regarded
as an experienced company and capable in running the
operational discipline,” he said.

Form Safety Observation and Inspection (SOI)
dan Form Job Cycle
Check (JCC)
Referring to “Message from Peter Poppinga” released by
Management Bulletin in mid of August, about the safety
performance of Vale Base Metal-where PT Vale is includedin the second quarter of 2014 is stagnant. This fact,
according to Executive Director of Base Metals of Vale must
be used as a momentum to achieve zero harm.
Safety Tools
PT Vale does its best to achieve its commitment.
From conducting innovation and automation of its
tools especially in the processing plant until applying
a new paradigm in occupational safety such as
increasing the frequency of activities on safety talk,
adding checking form of SOI (safety observation and
inspection), and JCC (job cycle check). “We could not
eliminate all the risks, therefore we need to have a
better risk management and capability. The leaders
keep reminding his team to work safely through
dialogues on how to manage the risks,” he added.
One of PT Vale’s latest innovation in improving the
awareness on occupational safety is by launching
the Personal Activity Risk Analysis (PARA). The new
device aims to support workers in minimizing
occupational hazards is released coincides with the
Global Safety Prevention Week on 11-15 of August
2014.
Identification and Communication
PARA is a pocket book that contains instructions for
workers in identifying risks and hazards based on
Major Hazard Standards
(MHS) before they
do their works. There are 12 standards listed in PARA,
including working at height, blasting, electricity, and
hazardous materials. PARA also provides explanations
on the risk factors of work activities and the preventive
actions.
The format of PARA is almost similar to SOI’s check
list form, only its contents are more in detail. This
handbook is also featured with tips on anticipating
dangers and intended for all levels of workers of
PT Vale. In contrast to the SOI which functions and
allocation are for leader level while conducting
inspections, PARA will be distributed to all, including
contractor employees and also visitors of PT Vale.
“PARA is like notes of workers on hazards or risks in
wherever they are or in their workplace. Take one
to three minutes to check for hazards and risks that
may happen in your workplace through PARA book,”
said GM Emergency Response, Health & Safety,
Budiawansyah.
In addition to helping identify hazards, PARA is like a
“communication bridge” between the workers and their
leaders. “The spirit of this tool is to instill a proactive,
two-way, and the bottom up communication.
Just ask to your supervisor if you are in doubt
or feel not safe to start work. If there are
things or unsafe conditions which cannot
be solved at your workplace, then contact
your supervisor for further actions,” he
added. PARA can replace the hazard
report form which is recently considered
less effective. •

TIPS
Proteksi Ekstra
Ketika Bekerja di Ketinggian
Data Health and Safety Department Vale Brasil 14
Februari 2014 menyebutkan, jatuh dari ketinggian
merupakan insiden dengan rekor cukup besar dalam
seluruh operasi Vale di dunia. Pada 2013, misalnya, tercatat
10 insiden dan memakan korban cedera maupun jiwa.
Untuk menyelamatkan Anda dari insiden tersebut, ikuti
beberapa petunjuk praktis berikut:
• Gunakan alat keselamatan kerja di ketinggian, paling
standar adalah body harness yang diikatkan di railing
yang aman secara vertikal.
• Sediakan perintang dan papan peringatan adanya
pekerjaan di ketinggian yang sedang dilakukan atau
benda berbahaya yang dapat jatuh.
• Diperlukan proteksi atau supervisi beberapa operator di
area kerja.
• Segera peringatkan pengawas proyek bila ada
perubahan rencana dalam pengerjaan proyek.
• Taati papan peringatan atau area yang diisolasi karena
ada proyek yang sedang berjalan.
• Laporkan kepada supervisor bila Anda melihat
sesuatu yang tidak beres atau tidak sesuai prosedur
keselamatan.
Hindari Percikan
dan Sengatan Listrik
Mesin-mesin di area pabrik pengolahan tentu bertegangan
listrik tinggi. Anda perlu ekstra waspada bekerja di area
ini. Lengah sedikit, arus listrik bisa menyengat Anda.
46
Ada beberapa kiat agar Anda terhindar dari bahaya tersengat
listrik, yang kami sarikan dari Occupational Health and Safety
and Business Security Department, Vale Brasil:
• Pastikan orang-orang yang bekerja dengan mesin beraliran
listrik atau kelistrikan adalah mereka yang terlatih dan
memenuhi kualifikasi.
• Pekerja diwajibkan menggunakan alat pelindung diri (APD).
• Pastikan keberadaan work permit (PT) dan task risk analysis
(ART) bagi para pekerja telah terpenuhi sebelum pekerjaan
dilakukan.
• Pastikan hanya mereka yang memiliki otoritas yang dapat
mengakses sumber kelistrikan di daerah kerja yang dimaksud.
• Ketika akan melakukan perawatan alat, pastikan untuk
memutus aliran listrik dan lakukan penyegelan dan memberi
tag di area terminal listrik tersebut (RAC-04).
• Status listrik nol itu juga harus dipastikan dengan alat
voltmeter (RAC-11).
• Lakukan pengecekan kembali kabel koneksi di panel terminal.
Pastikan sudah dalam kondisi off.
• Hindari tindakan yang tidak aman. Ikuti prosedur kerja aman. •
TIPS
Extra Protection
When Working at Heights
Data from the Health and Safety Department of PT Vale
Brasil on February 14, 2014 shows the falling from height is
a quite big accident in the record of entire Vale’s operations
in the world. In 2013, for example, there were 10 incidents
which claimed lives and injuries. To save you from such
incidents, follow some practical instructions below:
• Use safety tools needed for working in heights. The
most standar tool is body harness that is tied to safe
railing vertically.
• Provide barrier and warning signs that the work in
heights is being carried out or dangerous objects could
fall.
• Provide protection and supervision operators in work
area.
• Immediate notice must be given to project supervisor if
there is any change in the work plan.
• Obey the warning sign or isolated area because there
are ongoing projects.
• Report to your supervisor immediately once you see
something unusual or is not appropriate to safety
procedures.
Avoid Electrical Sparks
and Shocks
The machines in the mill area are certainly high-voltage
electricity. You need to be extra vigilant to work in this area. If
you are a little off guard, electric current can sting you. There
are a few tips for you to avoid the danger of electrical shock,
which we summarized from the Occupational Health and
Safety and Business Security Department of Vale Brasil:
• Make sure the people who work with the high-voltage
electricity machines or electricity are well trained and
qualified.
• Worker is obliged to wear self protection tool (APD).
• Ensure the work permit (PT) dan task risk analysis (ART)
for workers have been fulfilled before the work begins.
• Ensure only those who are in charge who can access the
electricity in the related workplace.
• Before doing tool maintenance, be sure to cut off the
electricity and do the sealing and tagging in the area of
electrical terminals (RAC-04
• The zero electricity status must be confirmed with
voltmeter (RAC-11).
• Check and recheck all connection cable in the panel
terminal. Make sure it is in off posision.
• Avoid unsafe action. Follow the procedures of safe work. •

Service Dept.
“Menurut saya, prosedur
keselamatan PT Vale sudah baik.
Apalagi dengan adanya sistem
pengecekan sebelum melakukan
kerja seperti SOI (safety observation
& inspection), membuat pekerja
lebih taat dan disiplin mengamati
potensi bahaya di areanya sebelum
bekerja. Seperti di area saya, Petea
Blok Barat, sebelum bekerja kami
memeriksa kondisi lereng apakah
ada potensi longsor atau tidak,
memeriksa kondisi pondokan
tempat beristirahat, dan para leader
selalu berkeliling memantau lokasi
kerja.
“Sebagai pekerja di lapangan,
saya mengapresiasi kebijakan
manajemen dan para leader untuk
lebih gencar mengutamakan
keselamatan kerja, karena risiko
kerja kami lebih besar daripada
yang tidak di lapangan. Saya juga
mendengar bahwa keselamatan
lebih diprioritaskan pada bagian
produksi. Tentu hal ini memotivasi
seluruh pekerja.
“Ada budaya kerja yang berubah
di tempat saya dengan keberadaan
JCC (job cycle check) dan SOI
(safety observation & inspection).
Sebelum bekerja kami jadi terbiasa
melakukan pengecekan alat dan
area kerja. Leader kami juga rutin
berkunjung ke lokasi kerja untuk
menghimpun masukan terkait
prosedur dan standar kerja aman.” •
Keberadaan sistem ini juga
membuat kami, pekerja, lebih
peduli dan tidak sungkan saling
mengingatkan bila ada rekan
kerja yang kami anggap bekerja
tidak sesuai dengan prosedur atau
standar keselamatan kerja.” •
48
Adanya SOI, misalnya, membuat
pekerjaan kami lebih terarah
dan ekstra hati-hati dalam
bekerja. Kami jadi tahu
batasan-batasan agar dapat
terhindar dari terjadinya
insiden kerja.” •

What Do They Say about
Occupational Safety?
Herman
Timbayo,
Ore Controller-Mining
& Exploration Dept.
“In my opinion, the occupational safety procedure of PT
Vale is good. Especially with checking system before working
such as SOI (safety observation and inspection), makes workers
are more obedient and discipline to observe potential hazards
in their work area before working. As in my work area, Petea West
Block, before working we always examine the condition of slope
area to make sure whether it is potentially landslide or not, check
the condition of hut we usually use to rest, and our leaders are
always around to monitor the work place.
This system also makes us, the workers, are more aware
to other co-workers and not hesitate to remind each
other when any of us does not work properly
according to the procedure or standard
of occupational safety.” •
Musafir,
Electrician-Service
Support Dept.
Yulianti
Marcelina,
Dump Truck Operator-Mining &
Exploration Dept.
“As a field worker, I do appreciate the policy of the
management and our leaders who intensively put
priority on occupational safety, because our works have
greater risk than those non-field works. I also heard that
occupational safety becomes a more priority on the
production. This, certainly, motivates all workers.
The SOI, for example, makes us more effective
and cautious in the work.
We know the limits in order to
avoid incidents in work.” •
“There is a change in a work culture at
my work place since JCC (job cycle check)
and SOI (safety observation and inspection)
are applied. Prior to work we are accustomed
to check equipment and work area. Our
leaders also regularly visit work sites
to gather information regarding to
occupational safety procedures
and standards.” •

tips
Bikers Wajib
Ekstra Hati-hati
Terapkan prinsip safety riding
selama berkendara.
Tidak bisa dimungkiri, kendaraan bermotor roda dua
menjadi alternatif transportasi yang paling banyak
digunakan oleh masyarakat Indonesia. Data Korps Lalu
Lintas Polri mencatat, populasi kendaraan bermotor
terbanyak disumbang oleh sepeda motor dengan jumlah
86.253 juta unit di seluruh Indonesia pada 2013. Sementara
ASEAN Automotive Federation (AAF) mencatat, Indonesia
mengambil tiga perempat market share dari total penjualan
sepeda motor di seluruh negara ASEAN pada periode
Januari-April 2014.
Namun populasi yang selalu naik dari tahun ke tahun itu
belum diimbangi kesadaran untuk mempraktikkan prinsipprinsip safety riding. Angka kecelakaan sepeda motor masih
sangat tinggi. Hasil Riset Kesehatan Dasar (Riskesdas) 2013
menyebutkan, kecelakaan sepeda motor merupakan salah
satu penyebab cedera terbanyak, dan umumnya menimpa
penduduk kelompok usia 15-24 tahun. Dibandingkan hasil
Riskesdas 2007, Riskesdas 2013 menunjukkan peningkatan
proporsi cedera transportasi darat (sepeda motor dan
moda transportasi darat lain) dari 25,9% menjadi 47,7%.
Mengendarai sepeda motor memerlukan keterampilan.
Alat transportasi ini memiliki beberapa kekurangan, seperti
kurang terlihat di jalan karena adanya faktor blind spot.
Dimensi sepeda motor yang kecil memberikan sedikit
perlindungan terhadap pengendaranya. Berikut adalah
pengingat penting untuk mengurangi risiko kecelakaan
bagi pengendara sepeda motor.
Posisi Tubuh
§§ Sebelum berkendara, pastikan tubuh merasa
nyaman agar tidak mengalami nyeri atau
trauma saat berkendara.
50
§§ Posisi duduk yang baik adalah paha dalam menjepit
jok kendaraan sehingga motor bisa dikontrol meski di
tikungan. Duduk dengan posisi kaki terbuka berbahaya,
karena bisa membuat Anda kehilangan keseimbangan.
§§ Tekuk lengan Anda ketika memegang stang motor.
§§ Usahakan posisi tangan tidak menahan berat badan.
§§ Pertama kali menjalankan kendaraan, pastikan kaki
kanan berada di tuas agar bisa mengontrol rem
belakang.
§§ Pastikan pandangan mata selalu luas, melihat ke depan,
dan merekam segala aktivitas yang berada di depan
sehingga Anda dapat mengambil keputusan yang tepat
selama berkendara.
§§ Jangan pernah melihat dalam jarak pendek atau melihat
ke aspal, karena ini bisa mengganggu keseimbangan
dan membuat Anda tertabrak.
Penggunaan Rem
§§ Posisikan jari telunjuk dan jari tengah berada di tuas
rem depan agar bisa membantu selalu memberhentikan
kendaraan atau mengontrol kecepatan.
§§ Pastikan Anda menggunakan kedua rem, depan dan
belakang.
tips
§§ Posisi tubuh tetap tegak saat melakukan pengereman.
§§ Ketika ada lubang di depan, tekan tuas rem depan
dan belakang sebelum motor memasuki lubang.
Mengerem di saat menabrak lubang bisa
membuat Anda terpental.
§§ Tekanlah tuas rem depan dan belakang
sebelum memasuki tikungan.
§§ Saat lintasan licin, pastikan Anda mengerem
secara perlahan dengan ditekan berkali-kali
agar kendaraan tetap stabil dan seimbang.
§§ Jangan pernah melakukan pemberhentian
hingga ban terkunci, karena bisa
menghilangkan keseimbangan.
§§ Saat mengerem dan motor berhenti, kaki kiri
yang pertama turun agar kaki kanan bisa tetap
mengontrol rem.
§§ Jangan panik saat melakukan pengereman.
Sebelum dan Saat Berkendara
§§ Pastikan kendaraan Anda dalam kondisi layak jalan.
Selalu gunakan ban yang berulir dan tidak aus.
§§ Patuhi peraturan lalu lintas dan selalu tertib di
jalan.
§§ Jangan berkendara di bawah pengaruh
alkohol.
§§ Atur kecepatan, jangan menyalip terlalu
ekstrem, jaga jarak aman.
§§ Berkonsentrasi sepanjang perjalanan.
§§ Sebisa mungkin, hindari berkendara di
tengah cuaca buruk. Hujan bukan hanya
menghalangi pandangan pengemudi
melainkan juga mengurangi kemampuan roda
untuk mencengkeram aspal.
§§ Waspadai bahaya pasir, kerikil, atau sampah di
jalan raya bisa membuat motor tergelincir tibatiba. Gundukan atau lubang yang mungkin tidak
berbahaya bagi kendaraan roda empat, bisa menjadi
bahaya serius bagi pesepeda motor.
§§ Selalu kenakan helm standar dengan kriteria antara
lain memiliki lapisan luar yang keras, bagian dalam
lunak dilengkapi pelindung dari busa, rangkanya kuat,
memiliki tali pengunci, dan bersertifikasi SNI, DOT,
atau SNELL.
§§ Jangan mengubah jalur tiba-tiba, berikan lampu
isyarat (lampu weser) kepada sesama pengguna jalan
sebelum mengubah lajur ataupun saat mendahului.
§§ Hargai pengguna jalan lain, kontrol emosi dengan
baik saat berkendara. •

Safe Riding Principles
It is undeniable that motorcycle becomes an alternative
transport most used in Indonesia. Data from the Traffic
Police shows motorcycle contribute the largest in number
in vehicle population reached to 86,253 million units
throughout Indonesia in 2013. The ASEAN Automotive
Federation (AAF) reported Indonesia took the threequarters market share of the total sales of motorcycle in all
ASEAN countries in the period of January-April 2014.
Unfortunately, the rising number is not matched with the
awareness of the motorists to practice safe riding principles.
Thus motor accident are still very high. The Basic Health
Research or “Riskesdas” in 2013 showed motor accident was
the biggest cause of injury among people with ranging of
age between 15 to 24 year old. Compared to the research
in 2007, in 2013 there is an increase in the proportion of
land transport injury (motorcycles and other land transport
modes) from 25.9% to 47.7%.
Riding a motorcycle requires a skill. This mode of
transportation has several disadvantages, such as less
visible on the road due to a blind spot factor. Its small
dimension also provides a little protection to the rider. The
following tips are helpful to reduce the risk of accident for
motorists.
Body Position
§§ Before riding, make sure you body is comfortable, so you
will not feel any pain nor trauma when riding.
§§ Good sitting position is your thighs tightly clamp the
seat so the motor is under control even in the bended
road. Sitting with legs open is dangerous because it lose
your balance.
§§ Bend your elbows when riding to prevent the possibility
you were thrown from the motorcycle.
§§ Hand position is not to hold your weight
§§ When you start to ride the motor, make sure your right
foot is on the lever so you can control the rear brake.
§§ Make sure your eyes are always wide open, looking
ahead and notice everything so you can take a proper
decision during riding.
§§ Never look with a short distance like looking at the
asphalt because it disturbs your balance and makes you
get hit.
52
tips
Use of Brake
§§ Index and middle fingers must be on the front brake
lever so you can stop the motor and control the speed.
§§ Make sure you can use both front and rare brakes.
§§ Body position must be upright when braking.
§§ When you find a hole, press both front and rare brakes
before motor enters the hole. To brake when the
motor hit the hole can make you bounce.
§§ Press the brakes, front and rear, before your motor
enters bended road.
§§ In a slippery road, press the brakes slowly and several
times to keep the motor stable and balance.
§§ Sudden braking will locked your tires.
§§ When braking and stop the motor, position your left
foot on the ground first while your right foot still
control the brakes.
§§ Do not be panic when braking.
Before and After Riding
§§ Make sure you motor is roadworthy. Do not use worn
tires.
§§ Obey the traffic regulations.
§§ Never ride under an influence of alcohol
§§ Set the speed, do not overtake extremely. Keep the
safe distance.
§§ Focus while riding
§§ If possible, do not ride in bad weather. Rain not only
obstructs your eyes, but also reduces the capability of
the tires to clamp the asphalt.
§§ Beware with hazards. Sand, gravel, garbage on the
road can cause sudden slip. Bumps or holes which are
not too dangerous for car can be a serious danger for
motorists.
§§ Always use a standard helmet with the following
criteria; hard cover outside and soft cover inside and
completed with a foam protection. It must have a
strong frame, rope locking and certified with SNI, DOT
and SNELL.
§§ Do not make a sudden turn, give signal light to other
riders before you turn or when you overtake.
§§ Respect other riders, control your emotion while
riding. •

TRIVIA
Fakta
di Jalan Raya
Keselamatan di jalan raya merupakan salah satu
fokus kampanye keselamatan PT Vale. Pasalnya, ancaman
kecelakaan bisa terjadi ketika pekerja hendak berangkat
kerja atau pulang kerja. Angka kecelakaan di jalan raya
secara global juga cukup tinggi. Berikut beberapa fakta soal
keselamatan di jalan raya versi World Health Organization
tahun 2013:
1. Lebih dari 1,2 juta orang tewas akibat tabrakan di jalan
raya setiap tahunnya. Korban luka mencapai 50 juta
jiwa.
2. Separuh korban kecelakaan tersebut adalah pejalan
kaki, pesepeda, dan pengendara sepeda motor.
3. Menggunakan sabuk pengaman yang benar sebelum
berkendara dapat mengurangi risiko kematian sebesar
61%.
4. Pengendara motor yang memakai helm dapat
mengurangi risiko kematian sebesar 45%.
5. Keberadaan dan pemberlakuan regulasi anti-alkohol
bagi pengendara dapat mengurangi 20% tingkat
kecelakaan di jalan raya.
6. Setiap mengurangi kecepatan 1 kilometer/jam
mengurangi potensi terjadinya tabrakan sebesar 2%.
7. Sebanyak 23% kecelakaan di seluruh dunia disebabkan
penggunaan telepon saat berkendara.
8. Berkendara sambil menelepon meningkatkan risiko
terjadinya tabrakan sebanyak 5 kali. Mengetik dan
mengirim SMS meningkatkan risiko kecelakaan 8-23
kali.
Awas Petir bagi Pekerja
di Area Terbuka!
Bagi pekerja di area tambang atau eksplorasi, waktu
mereka lebih banyak berada di hutan atau ruang terbuka
lainnya. Bahkan bila ada suatu pekerjaan sangat penting,
ketika hujan deras mendera, mereka tetap bekerja. Padahal
54
hujan deras kerap disertai petir yang menggelegar. Bahaya
pun mengancam. Menghadapi situasi petir sebelum atau
ketika hujan, berikut beberapa pedoman yang perlu Anda
lakukan agar tetap aman dan selamat:
1. Carilah tempat berlindung yang aman di dalam gedung.
Itulah pilihan terbaik!
2. Jika Anda berada di dalam kendaraan, tetap berada di
dalam dan jaga pintu dan jendela tetap tertutup rapat.
Jangan sentuh bagian logam dari mobil sampai badai
berlalu.
3. Jika Anda tidak dapat menemukan tempat berlindung,
cari tempat yang lebih rendah di daerah yang jauh dari
pohon, pagar besi, dan benda tinggi. Posisi terbaik adalah
berjongkok dengan kaki rapat, kepala menunduk, dan
tangan memegang lutut bagian bawah. Jangan letakkan
tangan di lutut dan jangan pernah berbaring di tanah.
4. Jika Anda berada di hutan, carilah daerah dengan pohonpohon kecil. Cobalah untuk mendekam jauh dari batang
pohon.
Fakta Petir
1. Sebuah sambaran petir memiliki tegangan sebesar 100
juta volt dengan panjang 2-3 mil. Sedangkan gelegarnya
bisa terdengar hingga 10 mil. Dengan kekuatan
seperti itu, sengatan petir hampir sama dengan panas
permukaan matahari.
2. Petir selalu menyambar di tempat yang sama. Puncak
gedung Empire State Building di AS disambar petir
sebanyak 100 kali setiap tahun.
3. Ada yang mengatakan bahwa tubuh manusia
menyimpan energi listrik. Maka berbahaya bila
menyentuh tubuh manusia yang tersambar petir. Ini
adalah mitos. Tubuh manusia tidak menyimpan energi
listrik dari sambaran petir. Jadi sangat aman menyentuh
korban tersambar petir untuk memberikan pertolongan
pertama. •

Facts on the Road
Road safety is one of PT Vale’s safety campaign. Threat of
accident can occur when workers go to or from work place.
The numbers of road accident globally are quite high as
well. Here are some facts about road safety issued by the
World Health Organization in 2013:
1. More than 1.2 million people were killed on the road
every year. Injured victims reached 50 millions.
2. Half of those victims are pedestrians, bikers, and
motorists.
3. Wearing safety belt can reduce the fatal risk to 61%.
4. Helmet can reduce fatal risk to 45%.
5. The anti-alcohol regulation (Drive Under Influence) laws
can reduce to 20% of road accident.
6. Every reduction of speed to 1 km/hour can reduce
potential collision to 2%.
7. As many 23% road accident in the world is caused by
calling while driving.
8. Calling while driving increases the risk of collission 5
times higher as for typing and texting, are 8-23 times.
Beware Lightning
in Open Area!
For workers in mine or exploration area, most of their time
are in the forest or other open space. Even if there is a very
urgent work, they have to work amids downpour whereas
thunder often boomed during heavy rain. It means danger.
To anticipate thunder or lightening before or during rain,
the following guides will help you to keep safe and secure:
1. Find a shelter inside the building. That is the best
option!
2. If you are in the vehicle, stay in and keep the doors and
windows close. Do not touch metal in your vehicle until
the lightning is over.
3. If you can not find any shelter, find a lower place where
it is far from tree, iron fence and high object. The best
position you can do is squatting, bow your head, and
put your hand under your knees. Do not put your hand
on your knees nor lying on the ground.
4. If you are in the forest, find an area with low trees. Try to
crouch away from trunk.
Facts about Lightning
1. A bolt of lightning has a voltage of 100 million volts
with a length of 2-3 miles. While the thundering can be
heard up to 10 miles. With such power, lightning heat is
similar to the solar surface.
2. Lightning always strikes in the same place. Peak of
Empire State Building in the United States has been
struck by lightning at least 100 times every year.
3. Some say there is electricity energy within the human
body, so it is dangerous to touch human body which is
struck by lightning. It is only a myth! Human body does
not keep electricity energy from lightning strike. So, it is
safe to touch person who is struck by lightning to give
first aid. •

Peranti
Keselamatan
di Rumah
Rumah sudah
seharusnya menjadi
tempat berlindung
yang paling aman dan
bebas kekhawatiran.
Coba lihat sekeliling.
Sudah amankah rumah
Anda dari potensi
bahaya?
Riset Kesehatan Dasar (Riskesdas)
Kementerian Kesehatan RI tahun
2013 menyatakan, prevalensi cedera
secara nasional adalah 8,2%, dengan
angka tertinggi ditemukan di Sulawesi
Selatan (12,8%). Jatuh menjadi
penyebab cedera paling umum,
terutama di jalan raya (42,8%) dan di
rumah (36,5%).
Namun risiko bisa dicegah.
Dengan peranti berikut, ditambah
kewaspadaan dan perilaku sadar
keselamatan, rumah Anda akan
menjadi tempat yang aman.
56
1. Alat Pemadam Api Ringan
(APAR)
Besar kemungkinan
alat pemadam
api hanya akan
menggantung di
sudut ruang, bahkan
hingga berdebu.
Namun ada kemungkinan peranti
tersebut dapat menyelamatkan
isi rumah, bahkan nyawa Anda
sekeluarga. Letakkan APAR di dekat
dapur atau tempat lain yang punya
potensi bahaya terbakar. Pelajari cara
menggunakan APAR dengan benar.
2. Pegangan Tangga
Seperti hasil Riskesdas
2013, jatuh
merupakan
penyebab cedera
yang paling
banyak. Dengan
memasang railing
atau pegangan di pinggir tangga,
risiko jatuh bisa ditekan. Selain itu,
singkirkan benda-benda, mulai dari
mainan hingga pakaian kotor, dari
anak tangga agar penghuni rumah
tidak tersandung.
3. Lampu Tidur
Lampu tidur sangat
membantu ketika
terbangun tengah
malam. Sebaiknya
lampu diletakkan
di kamar dan di
jalur yang kerap
Anda lewati, misalnya
jalur menuju kamar mandi atau
pintu depan. Bagi Anda yang punya
gangguan penglihatan, misalnya
rabun jauh, penerangan akan
mengurangi risiko terjatuh.
4. Keset Anti-selip
Jatuh di lantai kamar
mandi yang licin
bukan kejadian
baru, bahkan
mungkin pernah
Anda alami sendiri.
Untuk mencegahnya,
letakkan keset antiselip sebagai tempat berpijak saat
mandi atau saat keluar dari bathtub.
Keberadaan keset ini semakin
penting ketika Anda tinggal satu
rumah dengan lansia.
keselAmatan di rumah
5. Teralis
9. Peralatan P3K
Selain mengamankan
rumah dari pencuri,
teralis juga
mencegah anakanak, terutama Batita
dan Balita, melompat
keluar jendela sehingga
menekan risiko cedera yang fatal.
Tidak ada seorangpun
tahu kapan musibah
atau cedera
menimpa. Karena
itu, persiapan
sangat penting.
Menyediakan sebuah
kotak berisi peralatan P3K adalah salah
satunya. Isi kotak P3K Anda dengan
plester, cairan antiseptik, alkohol 70%,
kapas, perban, kasa steril, perban
elastis, gunting kecil, sarung tangan,
dan cotton bud. Siapkan pula obatobatan berupa obat penurun panas,
pereda nyeri, anti-alergi, obat tetes
mata, obat diare, krim luka bakar, dan
salep gatal. Jika anggota keluarga ada
yang memiliki kondisi medis tertentu,
misalnya asma atau hipertensi, siapkan
obat-obatan yang mereka perlukan.
Beri label yang jelas pada kemasan
tiap obat dan periksa secara berkala
untuk memastikan peralatan P3K Anda
tidak kedaluwarsa. •
6. Lemari Obat Terkunci
Keracunan merupakan
bahaya tersembunyi
di rumah. Pastikan
Anda menyimpan
obat-obatan di
dalam kotak yang
terkunci. Bahan kimia
seperti pembersih lantai dan racun
serangga juga perlu dijauhkan dari
jangkauan anak-anak.
7. Pengaman Stop Kontak
Jika Anda memiliki
anak usia dini, risiko
tersengat listrik bisa
dicegah dengan
memasang penutup
stop kontak,
sehingga anak tidak
bisa memasukkan jarinya ke lubang
berarus listrik. Upaya pencegahan
lain adalah memasang stop kontak di
tempat yang cukup tinggi agar aman
saat banjir dan tidak terkena air saat
mengepel lantai.
8. Tangga Segitiga
Menggunakan kursi untuk mengganti
bola lampu, mengecat
tembok, atau
mengambil buku
di rak tinggi bukan
pilihan yang aman.
Untuk meraih
tempat-tempat yang
tinggi, tangga ganda berbentuk
segitiga merupakan peranti paling
ideal. Demi mengurangi frekuensi
naik-turun tangga yang melelahkan
dan berisiko, sebaiknya letakkan
benda-benda yang kerap Anda
gunakan di tempat yang mudah
dijangkau.

Home Safety
Nine
Safety
Devices
at Home
Your home should be the safest shelter and worry free
place for you. Take a look around your home carefully,
is it really safe from any potential danger?
A basic health research made by Ministry of Health in
2013 showed prevalence of injury nationally is 8.2%, with
the highest rate found in South Sulawesi (12.8%). Falling is
the most common cause of injuries, especially on the road
(42.8%) and at home (36.5%).
However, the risks can be prevented. With these following
devices, and attitude of vigilance and safety consciousness,
your home can be really a safe place.
Light Fire Extinguisher
1
The lightweight fire
extinguisher may just hang
in the corner of the room
and dusted. However, this
stuff could save your home
and even the life of your
family members. Put it near the
kitchen or other places that have potential fire hazards. Learn
how to use a fire extinguisher properly.
58
Stair Handrails
2
3
Based on 2013 Basic Health
Research report, falling is
the most cause of injuries.
By installing handrails or
handles on the stair will
reduce the risk. In addition,
remove objects, such as toys and dirty clothes, from the stair
to prevent the risk of stumbles.
Bedside Lamps
Light sleeper is very helpful
when you wake up in the
middle of the night. It is
better to put them in a way
you often pass such as near
bathroom or door. These
lamps also help those who
have vision problem such as nearsightedness from risk
of falling.
Home Safety
4
Anti-slip Mat
Falling in a slippery
bathroom floor is not a new
thing, even you may have
experienced yourself. To
avoid this put anti-slip mats
at the bathroom or near
bathtub. This mat is very important especially when you live
with elderly people.
Trellis
5
6
Besides to secure your home
from burglars, trellis also
prevents children, especially
toddlers, from jumping out of
the window so it reduces the
risk of fatal injury.
Always Lock
the Drug Box
Toxicity is a hidden danger at
home. Therefore, make sure
you keep all medicines in a
locked box. Chemicals such
as floor cleaners and insect
repellent must be kept out of
the reach of children.
Socket Cover
7
If you have young children,
the risk of electric shock can
be prevented by installing
a covered socket, so your
children could not put their
fingers into the electricity
holes of socket. Other
preventive measures are by putting the socket in high
place. It is also safe from water during flood or when
you mop the floor.
Triangular Ladder
8
Using a chair to change a
lamp, paint the walls, or
pick up a book on a high
shelf is not a safe option.
To reach those high places,
triangular ladder is the most
ideal option to be used. To reduce the frequency of going
up and down from ladder which is exhausting and risky, it is
advisable to place the objects that you often use in an easily
accessible place.
9
First Aid Kits
No one knows when a
disaster or injury happens.
Therefore, preparation is very
important, for instance to
provide a box containing first
aid kits. Fill in your first aid
kits box with plaster, antiseptic liquid, 70% alcohol, cotton,
bandages, sterile gauze, elastic bandage, small scissors,
gloves, and cotton bud. Also you need to prepare some
drugs like anti fever, pain reliever, anti-allergic, eye drops,
diarrhea pills, burn treatment cream and itch ointment. If
one of your family members has certain medical conditions,
such as asthma or hypertension, you should put medicines
for such illnesses. Do not forget to put a clear label on every
drug and medicine and check periodically the expired dates
of your equipment. •

TIPS
Waspadai Lidah Api
di Rumah Anda
Selain listrik, api merupakan potensi bahaya lain di
rumah yang kerap menyebabkan cedera atau kematian
penghuninya. Dalam catatan CDC (Centres for Disease
Control & Prevention), 2 dari 3 korban cedera dan kematian
di rumah terjadi akibat api.
Maka itu, pahamilah area dan benda-benda yang
mengandung atau menggunakan api yang dapat memicu
terjadinya kebakaran, misalnya kompor, lilin dan rokok yang
menyala, atau kabel-kabel elektronik. Berikut beberapa hal
yang dapat Anda lakukan untuk meminimalisir terjadinya
kebakaran dan tindakan ketika terjadi kebakaran di rumah:
Dobel Cek Peralatan
1. Api biasanya kerap muncul
dari dapur, di mana kompor
berada. Pastikan lakukan
dobel cek apakah kompor
sudah mati bila selesai
digunakan. Apalagi ketika Anda
hendak keluar rumah.
2. Jangan pernah berpikir meninggalkan
kompor menyala meski Anda beranggapan hanya
sebentar untuk menerima telepon. Matikan kompor!
Pasang Detektor Asap
1.Usahakan rumah Anda
memiliki detektor asap.
Minimal 1 unit di area/ruangan
yang menurut Anda sering
menggunakan api, misalnya
dapur atau kamar tidur.
2. Lakukan cek rutin fungsi detektor asap sebulan sekali.
Gantilah baterainya minimal sekali setahun dan
mengganti unitnya setiap 10 tahun sekali.
3. Pastikan seluruh anggota keluarga akrab dengan suara
alarm detektor asap.
60
Siapkan Sistem
Pemadaman Api
1. Hal ini dapat Anda lakukan
dengan menyiapkan alat
pemadam api ringan (APAR).
Letakkan di tempat yang
mudah diakses dan penghuni
rumah mengetahui cara
menggunakannya.
2. Akan lebih baik bila rumah Anda dilengkapi home
sprinkler system (sistem penyemprot air) yang biasanya
dipasang berdekatan dengan detektor asap. Sistem
penyemprotan air sangat bermanfaat meminimalisir
kerusakan atau luka bila terjadi kebakaran di rumah
Anda.
Rute Evakuasi dan
Tindakan Lainnya
1. Buatlah rute evakuasi.
Diskusikan dan sampaikan
kepada seluruh anggota
keluarga soal rute evakuasi
di rumah Anda ini.
2. Lakukan latihan evakuasi bersama anggota keluarga,
minimal setiap sebulan sekali. Kesempatan itu juga
perlu dibarengi berbagi pengetahuan dasar antisipasi
atau tindakan ketika terjadi kebakaran, misalnya jangan
membuka pintu bila terasa panas, evakuasi dalam
tempo sesingkat-singkatnya, hubungi nomor telepon
gawat darurat, dan jangan kembali lagi ke rumah bila
sudah berhasil menyelamatkan diri.
3. Bila Anda mengalami luka bakar ringan, kompres luka
dengan air mengalir selama 5 menit. Bila luka bakar
cukup parah, segera minta pertolongan medis. •
TIPS
Beware Fire Flame
in Your House
Besides electricity, fire is another potential hazard in the
house that often result in injury or death of the occupants.
In the records of the CDC (Centres for Disease Control &
Prevention), 2 of the 3 victims of injuries and deaths from
accident in the house are from fire.
Double Check Equipment
1. Fire is usually coming from
kitchen where stove is there.
Make sure you double check
whether the stove is off after
use. Especially when you are
about to leave the house.
2. Do not ever think to leave the
stove on, although you just
receive a telephone. Turn off
your stove first!
Thus, recognize the area and the objects that contain or use
a fire which can lead to fires, for instance stoves, candles
and cigarettes, or electronic cables. Here are some things
you can do to minimize the fires and actions to be taken
when fires take place at home:
Prepare Fire Extinguisher
1. You can do this by preparing
a light fire extinguisher. Put
it on the place which is easily
accessed and the member of
family in the house know how
to use it.
2. It will be much better if your
house is installed with home
sprinkler system which is
usually put near the smoke
detector. It is very useful to
minimize damage or injury
when fires takes place.
Install Smoke Detector
1. Install smoke detector in your
house. At least one unit for one
room, especially in kitchen and bed
room.
2. Do routine checking whether it
works fine or not, at least once in a
month. Change the battery once in
a year replace the detector once in
every 10 years.
3. Make sure every member of the
family is familiar with the sound of
the smoke detector.
Evacuation Route and Other Actions
1. Plan an evacuation route. Discuss and inform to all members of the family
about it.
2. Do evacuation simulation with your family members, at least once in a
month. This is also a chance to share knowledge on the anticipation and
action when fires occur, for instance, do not open the door when it is hot,
do evacuation as soon as possible, call the emergency lines.
3. If you got minor burns, put them on flowing water for at least 5 minutes.
For serious burns, get medical aid as soon as possible. •

TIPS
Tindakan Ketika
Terjadi Gempa
Sorowako, tempat operasi PT Vale, merupakan salah satu
daerah patahan di Sulawesi sehingga cukup sering terjadi
gempa. Dalam setahun, rata-rata Sorowako mengalami
4-6 kali gempa dengan tingkat guncangan kecil hingga
medium. Kesadaran akan bahaya gempa wajib dimiliki
warga Sorowako dan pekerja serta keluarga PT Vale. Berikut
beberapa tindakan penting sebelum dan ketika terjadi
gempa.
1. Identifikasi kekuatan rumah Anda menahan gempa.
Termasuk mengidentifikasi jenis perabotan yang
berpotensi jatuh atau roboh ketika terjadi gempa.
Amankan perabotan itu dengan cara meletakkannya
berdempetan dengan tembok dan tidak menghalangi
jalan. Juga cek fungsi dan kondisi peralatan yang
menggunakan listrik, gas, dan api karena benda-benda
ini dapat berimbas buruk ketika terjadi gempa.
62
2. Bila terjadi gempa dan Anda sedang berada di rumah,
jangan panik. Bila Anda tidak dapat segera keluar dari
rumah, berlindunglah di bawah meja. Kalau Anda di
tempat tidur, lindungilah kepala dengan bantal. Bila
ingin keluar rumah, gunakan alas kaki, karena gempa
kerap membuat barang-barang berantakan, seperti
kaca bertebaran di lantai.
3. Bila sudah di luar rumah, tunggulah di area aman yang
jauh dari bangunan tinggi, tiang listrik, atau pohon.
4. Bila rumah Anda roboh, jangan masuk ke dalam
rumah hingga kondisi aman. Lebih baik menunggu
sekitar 1-2 jam untuk mengantisipasi gempa susulan
atau robohnya rumah. Lakukan observasi di sekitar
rumah untuk mendeteksi apakah ada kebocoran gas,
hubungan pendek listrik, atau percikan api. •
TIPS
What to Do
When an
Earthquake
Happens
Sorowako, where the operation of PT Vale locates, is one
of the faults in Sulawesi so earthquake is quite often to
occur. Within a year, there are an average of 4-6 times of
earthquake in Sorowako with a small to medium-level
shocks. Awareness of the dangers of earthquake must be
owned by Sorowako residents and PT Vale’s workers as well
as their families. Here are some important actions need to
be taken before and during an earthquake.
1. Identify the strength of your house to withstand
earthquakes, including to identify the typical of
furniture which could potentially fall or collapse during
an earthquake. Secure the furniture by attaching them
onto the wall so they will not blocked the access. Also
check the function and condition of home appliances
that use electricity, gas, and fire because these objects
can be badly affected during the earthquake.
2. When an earthquake happens and you’re at home,
do not be panic. If you can not get out of your
home immediately, go under the table. If you
are in bed, protect the head with pillow. If you
want to leave the house, use footwear, because
earthquakes often cause some items falling apart,
like glass scattered on the floor
3. When you are outside the house, wait in the safe
place which is far from high building, electricity
pole or tree.
4. If your house collapsed, do not go in until the
condition is safe. It is better to wait for 1-2 hours
to anticipate the following earthqake or collapse.
Oberve the surrounding area to detect whether
there is leak of gas, short circuit or flames. •

Contractor Safety
Management System
CSMS, Solusi Melindungi Kontraktor
PT Vale menerapkan sistem manajemen perlindungan
keselamatan para pekerja kontraktornya.
Ada sekitar 3.500 kontraktor yang bekerja untuk PT Vale.
Artinya, hampir 60% pengerjaan proyek-proyek PT Vale
didukung tenaga kontraktor. Melihat jumlah yang besar ini,
potensi bahaya kerja yang dihadapi kontraktor sangat tinggi.
“Aktivitas PT Vale tidak bisa lepas dari peran kontraktor.
Perusahaan membutuhkan mereka karena mereka sangat
membantu untuk pekerjaan insidental. Namun mereka
juga perlu dilindungi dalam bekerja,” ujar GM Emergency
Response, Health, and Safety PT Vale Budiawansyah.
Melihat fakta tersebut, PT Vale memberlakukan contractor
safety management system (CSMS) pada November 2013
silam. CSMS merupakan panduan pemeriksaan kepatutan
dan kelayakan suatu perusahaan kontraktor PT Vale dalam
mengikuti kriteria standar kesehatan dan keselamatan kerja.
Masuk dalam kriteria tersebut aspek legal, teknis, peralatan,
dan kapasitas pekerjanya. CSMS diwujudkan dalam tujuh
tahap, yakni Pra-kualifikasi, Persiapan Kontrak, Pemilihan
Kontraktor, Pemberian Kontrak, Pelatihan, Pengaturan
Pekerjaan, dan Evaluasi Periodik. Untuk program ini PT Vale
menyusun konsepnya bersama konsultan keselamatan kerja
DuPont Safety.
“CSMS PT Vale sejalan dengan UU Nomor 1/1970 tentang
Keselamatan Kerja dan regulasi terbaru pemerintah, yakni
64
PP Nomor 50/2012 tentang Penerapan Sistem Manajemen
Keselamatan dan Kesehatan Kerja,” ujar Direktur
Pengawasan Norma K3 Kementerian Tenaga Kerja dan
Transmigrasi, Amri AK.
Kendati demikian, CSMS tidak diberlakukan kepada seluruh
perusahaan kontraktor. Hanya yang bersifat self supervised
(kontrak dengan pekerjaan yang disupervisi oleh kontraktor
sendiri). Jumlahnya sekitar 400 kontrak dengan kategori
kontrak bersifat low, medium, dan high terkait kesehatan
dan keselamatan kerja
Latar belakang CSMS, menurut Team Leader CSMS PT
Vale, Abu Ashar, adalah statistik angka kecelakaan kerja
masih tinggi di kalangan kontraktor. Ada lima kriteria yang
menjadi fokus evaluasi periodik CSMS, yakni kecelakaan/
cedera pekerja, Golden Rules, kesehatan dan keselamatan
perilaku, EHS meeting, dan sistem manajemen
COO PT Vale, Josimar Pires, berharap, penerapan CSMS
ini dapat menihilkan angka kecelakaan kerja. Dia juga
mengimbau seluruh entitas PT Vale saling bantu dan
menyukseskan program ini. “Ajaklah orang-orang agar
menyadari bahwa hal ini penting, sehingga ke depan
pesertanya semakin banyak memahami dan dilakukan
dengan sungguh-sungguh,” ujar dia. •
Contractor Safety
Management System
CSMS, Solution to Protect Contractor
PT Vale implements a management system of safety protection
to its contractor workers.
There are about 3,500 contractors working for PT Vale. It
means, almost 60% the company’s projects are supported
by these workers. Given the big number, the potential
danger faced by these contractors are very high.
“Activities of PT Vale can not be separated from their role.
The Company needs them because they are very helpful
to do incidental works. Therefore, they must be protected
in the work, “ said GM Emergency Response, Health, and
Safety PT Vale Mr. Budiawansyah.
Given the fact, PT Vale has decided to implement a
contractor safety management system (CSMS) since
November 2013. CSMS is a fit and proper examination
guide of a contractor company of PT Vale in fulfilling criteria
of health and safety work standard.
The criteria include some aspects like legal, technical,
equipment, and capacity of workers. CSMS embodied in
seven stages, namely pre-qualification, Preparation of
Contract, Contractor Selection, Contract Provision, Training,
Work Settings, and Periodic Evaluation. For this program
PT Vale formulate the concept with
Occupational safety consultant DuPont
Safety.
“PT Vale’s CSMS is in line with the Law No. 1/1970
on Occupational Safety-Health (OSH) and the latest
government regulations, PP No. 50/2012 on the Application
of Management System on Occupational Health and Safety,”
said Director of Supervision of OSH Norm of the Manpower
and Transmigration Ministry Amri AK.
However, CSMS does not apply to all contractor companies.
Only certain companies with self-supervised (contracts
supervised by own contractors). There are around 400
contracts with category of low, medium, and high related
to occupational health and safety.
CSMS Background, according to PT Vale’s CSMS Team
Leader Abu Ashar is the statistics show the number of
accident in workplace is still high among the contractors.
There are five criteria become the focus of CSMS’ periodic
evaluation, namely workers’ accident/injury, Golden
Rules, behavioral health and safety, EHS meetings, and
management systems.
Penandatangan prasasti
pencanangan program CSMS
bagi karyawan kontraktor
PT Vale’s COO Josimar
Pires hopes the CSMS
implementation can nullify
number of work accident.
He calls on all entities PT
Vale to help each other and
support the program. “Invite
the people to learn how
important it is, so that in the
future more participants
understand and do these
more seriously,” he said. •

wawancara
Frans Gunterus:
Lemahnya Penegakan
Budaya Keselamatan Kerja
Menurut konsultan Contractor
Safety Management System
PT Vale dari DuPont Safety ini,
cara berpikir keliru yang selama
ini berkembang di masyarakat
menjadi kendala terwujudnya
masyarakat sadar keselamatan
dan pentingnya mewujudkan
kerja yang aman.
Keselamatan kerja dan kompetensi kontraktor
bekerja aman merupakan salah satu perhatian PT Vale.
Sejak November 2013, PT Vale menerapkan CSMS,
sebuah program yang mengatur prosedur dan standar
keselamatan kerja yang harus dipenuhi kontraktor di
PT Vale.
Sempat menimbulkan polemik, penyusunan CSMS menyita
energi dan waktu panjang Tim Komite. Halo Vale mewawancarai
Frans Gunterus—konsultan DuPont Sustainable Solution,
praktisi keselamatan kerja dengan pengalaman lebih dari tiga
dekade. Konsultan ini membantu PT Vale menyusun program
CSMS tersebut. Seperti apa konsep CSMS? Berikut petikan
wawancaranya.
Apa persoalan krusial yang dihadapi pertambangan
nasional terkait keselamatan kerja?
Persoalannya ada pada cara berpikir sebagian masyarakat kita
yang menganggap kecelakaan merupakan kehendak Tuhan.
Contohnya, ketika ada karyawan PT Vale tewas ketika berangkat
kerja dengan menggunakan motor, pasca itu Manajemen
terus-menerus menghimbau agar karyawan menggunakan
bus karyawan. Namun apa yang terjadi? Ada karyawan yang
menggerutu karena mereka berpikir tidak lagi diperbolehkan
menggunakan sepeda motor. Padahal perusahaan niatnya baik,
demi mengurangi potensi bahaya ketika berangkat dan pulang
kerja.
Istilahnya, ada gap in thinking terjadi di sini. Hal ini tidak
hanya terjadi di Indonesia namun juga di negara lain. Yang
membedakan adalah tingkat persentasenya, dan itu sangat
bergantung pada tingkat awareness budaya keselamatan
setempat.
Gap in thinking juga terjadi di dunia industri pertambangan
dalam wujud perilaku berbahaya (unsafe acts/UA) dan kondisi
berbahaya (unsafe conditions/UC). Ketika UA dan UC ini
terakumulasi sebagai akibat lemahnya mekanisme kontrol, maka
ketika UA dan UC itu tercetus akan menjadi kecelakaan serius.
Risiko kerja tidak pernah bisa dibuat nol, namun perlu dikontrol
sampai ke tingkat serendah mungkin yang bisa diterima, praktis,
ekonomis dan masuk akal. As low as reasonable and practical.
66
wawancara
Bagaimana dari sisi regulasi keselamatan kerja?
Pasti ada hal yang dapat diperbaiki, baik regulasi dari
pemerintah maupun PT Vale sendiri. Namun, bagi saya
keduanya sudah memadai. Persoalannya bukan di
regulasinya, melainkan di tataran implementasinya.
Seperti apa lemahnya implementasi tersebut?
Coba lihat, mengapa anak-anak kita berani membawa
motor tidak pakai helm, bahkan melanggar rambu-rambu
lalu lintas? Itu karena lemahnya penegakan aturan (law
enforcement). Padahal regulasi dan sanksi atas pelanggaran
keselamatan kerja dari Kementrian ESDM untuk sektor
pertambangan sudah jelas. Sanksi ada dan jelas, tapi
acapkali tidak dijalankan. Di negara maju, pemerintah
mengenakan sanksi masif terhadap pelanggaran, apalagi
bila menyebabkan kematian. Baik perusahaan maupun
pekerjanya dapat dikenai sanksi hukum.
Hal itu yang perlu ditingkatkan di Indonesia maupun PT
Vale. Pelaksanaan diawasi, tapi pelanggaran terhadap
aturan masih lemah. Hal ini yang kemudian tercetus dalam
wujud proses pembiaran dan menyebabkan lemahnya
budaya keselamatan kerja kita.
Catatan Departemen ESDM 2013, ahli K3 di
Indonesia hanya 63.000 orang, sementara
pekerja tambang di Indonesia mencapai 1,6 juta
orang. Apakah hal ini menjadi kendala?
Minimnya pengawas pertambangan itu bukan hanya di
Indonesia, tapi juga di seluruh dunia. Bahkan di negara
maju, hal itu lebih ekstrem karena gaji karyawan jauh lebih
mahal. Maka dari itu, DuPont menekankan bahwa safety is
a line management responsibility. Artinya, keselamatan kerja
itu adalah tanggung jawab manajemen lini. Mereka lah
bertanggung jawab atas safety di areanya.
Artinya keselamatan kerja di perusahaan
swasta tidak dapat mengandalkan
pengawasan dari pemerintah?
Tidak bisa, karena hal itu memang tidak mungkin. Justru
pimpinan perusahaan yang harus memberikan penekanan
keselamatan kerja dari lini di atas, dan lini ini melanjutkan
pesan ke bawah. Istilahnya cascade down atau getok-tular.
Soal keselamatan juga tidak hanya tugas inspektur safety,
tapi seluruh pekerja. Jadi dia tidak hanya mengawasi
jalannya pekerjaan, tapi juga sisi keselamatannya.
Ada pihak lain yang dapat mengawal
keselamatan kerja ini?
Di negara-negara maju, ada banyak aturan keselamatan
kerja yang lahir atas permintaan serikat buruh. Misalnya,
regulasi OSHA (Occupational Safety Health Administration)
29 CFR 1910.119 mengenai Process Safety and Risk
Management. Regulasi ini terbit atas desakan serikat
buruh di Amerika Serikat yang meminta agar perusahaan
memiliki action plan tertulis untuk keselamatan kerja serta
menyertakan kaum buruh ketika menyusunnya. Serikat
buruh di sana menuntut agar mereka dapat bekerja dengan
aman di perusahaan.
Apa rekomendasi DuPont untuk CSMS
PT Vale?
CSMS sebenarnya konsep yang sudah dikenal dan
diterapkan cukup lama di dunia. Di PT Vale, populasi
pekerja 60%, atau bahkan lebih, adalah para kontraktor.
Mereka berada di garda depan yang berhadapan langsung
dengan potensi bahaya riil seperti mengemudikan dozer,
bekerja di ketinggian, bekerja di tegangan tinggi, masukkeluar hutan memotong pohon, dan sebagainya. Maka
sangat tepat ketika PT Vale memprioritaskan pembuatan
CSMS.
Awalnya, usaha ini tidak sepenuhnya dipahami, bukan
hanya oleh para kontraktor namun juga oleh karyawan PT
Vale sendiri. Ada banyak yang mengeluh dan menganggap
perusahaan suka membuat aturan-aturan baru. Untungnya,
hal ini mampu diatasi ketika ketua Sub Committee
CSMS di bawah pimpinan Pak Abu Ashar konsisten
maju terus melakukan sosialisasi dan langkah-langkah
penyempurnaan mekanisme CSMS.
Apa syarat utama implementasi CSMS?
Yang utama adalah memilih kontraktor yang prokeselamatan kerja. Itu dulu. Selebihnya ke teknis, seperti
persiapan kontrak dan sebagainya.
Anda yakin CSMS akan berjalan sesuai rencana?
Ya, saya yakin, kalau PT Vale konsisten dalam implementasi
di lapangan dan tidak sebatas di atas kertas. •

Interview
Frans Gunterus:
“Weak Enforcement
on Safe Work Culture”
According to DuPont Safety’s Consultant for Contractor Safety
Management System of PT Vale the mistakenly thinking among
community become constraints to establish the community who aware
on the safe work and the importance to establish a safe work pace.
Occupational safety and competence of contractors are
deeply concerned by PT Vale. Since November 2013, PT Vale
has applied CSMS, a program which sets up procedures
and standards of occupational safety that must be met by
contractors of PT Vale.
With some polemics occured, the preparation of CSMS
has consumed the energy and time of the Committee
Team. Halo Vale had the opportunity to interview Frans
Gunterus-consultant of DuPont Sustainable Solutions,
Safety practitioner who has more than three decades
of experience. This consultant has helped PT Vale in
formulating its CSMS program. What kind of CSMS concept
he initiates? Here are excerpts of the interview.
What are the crucial issues faced by the national
mining regarding to occupational safety?
The problem is in the way of thinking of some parts of
our society who think the accident was the will of God.
For example, when an employee of PT Vale was killed
when leaving for work on a motorbike, after the incident
the management of the company was constantly calling
for employees to use the bus for employees. But what
happened? Some employees were grumbling because
they think they were not allowed to use the motor bike. In
fact, the Company has a good intention in order to reduce
potential dangers to and from work.
There is a gap in thinking here. It does not happen only in
Indonesia but also in other countries. The difference is the
percentage rate, and it is highly dependent on the level of
awareness of local safety culture.
68
Gap in thinking also occurs in the mining industry in
the form of unsafe acts (UA) and unsafe conditions
(UC). When UA and UC accumulated as a result of weak
control mechanisms, then one day UA and UC will
blaze into a serious accident.
Occupational risk can never be made to zero, but it
needs to be controlled to the lowest possible level that
is acceptable, practical, economical and reasonable. As
low as reasonable and practical.
How it is seen from the regulation of occupational safety?
There must be things can be fixed, either the
regulations from the government or from PT Vale.
However, for me, both are adequate. The problem is
not on the regulation, but in term of implementation.
How weak is the implementation?
Let’s see, why are our children dare to ride motor cycle
without wearing helmet, and even violating traffic
signs? It is because the law enforcement is weak.
The regulations and sanctions for any violation of
occupational safety issued by the Ministry of Energy
and Mineral Resources for the mining sector is clear.
The sanction is there and clear, but not implemented.
In developed countries, the government impose a
massive sanctions for any violation, especially when it
takes lives. Both the company and the employees can
be punished.
Interview
This is something needs to be improved in Indonesia
and PT Vale. The implementation is supervised but
sanctions against violation is still weak. Later, it
becomes an omission and weakens our occupational
safety culture.
The data from the Ministry of Energy
and Mineral Resources in 2013 shows the
number of occupational health and safety
(OHS) experts in Indonesia is just 63,000
people while mine workers reached 1.6
million people. Is this a problem?
The lack of mining supervisor is not only in
Indonesia, but also in the whole world. Even in
the developed countries, and it is more extreme
because the employee’s salary is far higher. Therefore,
DuPont stressed that safety is a line management
responsibility, meaning occupational safety becomes
the responsibility of the management line. They are
responsible for the safety in its area.
Do you mean the occupational safety in the
private companies can not depend on the
control from the government?
No we can not, because it is not possible anyway.
The leader of the company must emphasize on the
occupational safety top down or cascade down.
Safety is not only the duty of safety inspector, but all
workers. They do not just supervise the work but also
the safety.
Are they any other parties who can oversee
this Occupational safety?
In developed countries, there are many rules on
the occupational safety made on the request of the
labour unions. For example, regulations on OSHA
(Occupational Safety Health Administration) 29 CFR
1910,119 on Process Safety and Risk Management.
This Regulation is published at the urging of labor
unions in the United States who requested the
company to have a written plan of action on the
occupational safety and included them in the making
process. Labor union demanded they can work safely
in the company.
What are DuPont’s recommendations
for PT Vale’s CSMS?
In fact, CSMS concept has been known and implemented
for quite long time. In PT Vale, where 60% of workers,
or even more, are contractors. They are in the vanguard
of dealing directly with the real potential dangers such
as driving a dozer, working at heights, working on high
voltage, tree cutting, and so on. So it’s quite right when PT
Vale decides to prioritize CSMS.
Initially, these efforts were not fully understood, not just by
contractors, but also by employees of PT Vale itself. Many
complained and assumed the company only like to make
new rules. Fortunately, the complaints could be answered
when the leader of CSMS Sub-Committee Abu Ashar
continued consistently to socialize and make improvement
to the CSMS mechanism.
What the main requirement on the CSMS
implementation?
The key is to select pro-occupational safety contractor. That
is first. The rest is more on technical thing such as contract
preparation and so on.
Are you sure CSMS will work as plan?
Of course, if PT Vale is consistent in the implementation in
the field, not just on the paper. •
