Abstract

Social security is the right of citizens, including workers. However, in reality not all workers are touched in Indonesia’s social security program. This paper will explain why the social security program has not been successful for participatory workers in Indonesia. This research approach uses a desk literature review and a survey approach located in informal sector workers’ settlements in Sorong City, which is focused in Sorong City. The analysis uses a descriptive method that discusses how the implementation of the social security program is carried out by government policies. This study finds that the implementation of social security has not been followed by most of the informal sector workers, considering that this literature has been widely adopted from articles because the data for Sorong City is still very minimal which is a limitation of this paper. This paper raises this topic due to several obstacles, such as, the workers still do not understand about the Jamsostek program; they have not yet gained access to this program. Another factor is the low level of education of workers, its effect on their lower knowledge. Therefore, this situation causes less access to program information by informal workers.
