The 2026 Jamsostek Awards recognize local governments and entities for their contributions to social security and worker protection in Indonesia.

In mid-September, the Bojonegoro Regency Government received second place in the East Java category for its efforts to expand social security coverage, specifically for non-wage earners and those in the informal sector. 

By early October, the awards ceremony was hosted in Yogyakarta. The event highlighted the participation of approximately 638,000 workers in the Special Region of Yogyakarta across various sectors, including wage earners, informal workers, and construction services. To increase coverage, BPJS Ketenagakerjaan is employing a ‘pentahelix’ collaboration model involving government, business associations, labor unions, and academics, alongside the Economic Empowerment and Heir Independence (PEKA) program to provide financial literacy to beneficiaries.
