Abstract :

The work rehabilitation program is one of the important efforts made by the company to help employees who are experiencing health conditions that disrupt work productivity to return to work optimally at PT. KALPRI, there has been an increase in the number of employees undergoing work rehabilitation programs accompanied by a low success rate in returning employees to their original positions after undergoing the program. Therefore, this study aims to identify the factors that cause this condition to occur. This research uses a descriptive quantitative approach, using a questionnaire instrument for 71 respondents and conducting in-depth interviews with 5 members of the rehabilitation committee at PT. KALPRI. The collected data is then analyzed to identify the key factors influencing the increase in rehabilitated employees and the program’s low success rate. The research results show that the internal factors causing the rise in the number of employees being rehabilitated are the employees’ unhealthy habits and lifestyles, such as smoking habits, irregular exercise, and rest, which trigger the emergence of various diseases such as cardiovascular, musculoskeletal, and obesity. Externally, the COVID-19 pandemic has also contributed to the increase in the number of employees being rehabilitated due to restrictions on activities that have impacted employee health. Meanwhile, the internal factors that cause the low success rate of the rehabilitation program are the employees’ habits and lifestyles that slow down the healing process, so some employees have to undergo a “long sick” program that extends the rehabilitation period. Externally, the activity restrictions due to the COVID-19 pandemic have also contributed greatly to the low reabsorption of employees after undergoing a rehabilitation program. The findings of this study indicate the need to increase more intensive health interventions and education to change employees’ habits and lifestyles, as well as the need for stronger coordination between the rehabilitation team and management in managing work rehabilitation programs, especially during the pandemic. These efforts are expected to help improve PT. KALPRI’s work rehabilitation program’s success.
