The Framework to Implement Total Worker Health in the Indonesian Coal Mining Industry

Research output: Contribution to journalArticlepeer-review

Abstract

Objective: This paper aims to develop a sustainable intervention strategy for the Indonesian coal mining industry's implementation of total worker health. This implementation begins with a study of the starting circumstances, followed by the implementation of an intervention based on the findings of the prior analysis, and finally, the evaluation of the intervention's effects. Methods: To determine the impact of an intervention on a subject that has already been the subject of analysis, researchers employed experimental or interventional techniques. This article will outline a framework for applying interventions to promote total worker health. Results and Discussion: The conceptual model for implementing total worker health with an intervention approach in the Indonesian coal mining industry uses a two-way approach. The first uses government regulations to intervene in the coal mining industry, and the second is company intervention through the steering committee to intervene in workers. Based on the results of a literature review conducted by the authors, no intervention model uses a two-way approach from the government and enterprise. Research Implications: An essential asset is employee safety. The well-being of employees must be evaluated while implementing work safety regulations. A total worker health approach is one method that can be employed to reduce accident rates as well as improve the well-being of employees. Originality/Value: Government constraints are in place to enhance the well-being of workers because employment regulators and designers of employment regulations need to be able to confirm that enterprises have properly implemented occupational safety and health programs.
