JAKARTA (ISL News) - IPC Container Terminal (IPC TPK) continues to strengthen its commitment to building a safe, resilient, and sustainable port work environment. Through its Social and Environmental Responsibility (TJSL) program, IPC TPK held Emergency Rescue & First Aid Training for Stevedoring Workers (TKBM) at IPC TPK Tanjung Priok Area, as part of the commemoration of National K3 Month 2026 with the theme "Building a Professional, Reliable, and Collaborative National K3 Management Ecosystem."
As a key node in the national logistics chain, ports are characterized by high-risk working environments. Therefore, IPC TPK proactively encourages the strengthening of occupational safety competencies, not only for internal workers but also for all stakeholders directly involved in port operations, including TKBM as the frontline of loading and unloading services.
This training equips participants with technical skills in emergency rescue and first aid for workplace accidents, including basic first aid, basic life support, cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR), and team rescue simulations. This capacity building is expected to minimize the risk of fatalities while maintaining smooth terminal operations for service users.
"TKBM plays a strategic role in ensuring safe and efficient port operations. Safety is a shared responsibility, and synergy between all port personnel is key to creating a safe work environment," said Pramestie Wulandary, Corporate Secretary of IPC TPK.
From an Environmental, Social, and Governance (ESG) perspective, this initiative represents a concrete implementation of the Social pillar, particularly in protecting workers and strengthening a safety culture. This program also aligns with Sustainable Development Goal (SDG) Number 8, Decent Work and Economic Growth, by ensuring equitable safety standards for all actors in the port logistics chain.
The Emergency Rescue & First Aid Training activity was officially opened by Stefanus Happy Yanuar Hadi, Assistant Manager of Operations for IPC TPK Area Tanjung Priok 2, and attended by Yudha Sutanto, Assistant Manager of Operations for IPC TPK Area Tanjung Priok 1. In his remarks, Stefanus emphasized the importance of preparedness and collaboration of all port personnel in creating a safe and sustainable work environment.
The training, involving professional instructors from the Indonesian Red Cross (PMI) North Jakarta, was attended by 27 TKBM personnel operating in the Tanjung Priok Port area and held at the Indonesian Maritime Museum. The IPC TPK aims to equip participants not only with technical knowledge but also with the ability to act as safety leaders in their respective workplaces.
"Through this cross-stakeholder collaboration, we are optimistic that the Tanjung Priok Port ecosystem will become increasingly resilient, with a growing safety culture that provides a sense of security for workers, service users, and all stakeholders," Pramestie concluded.
