Social security and coverage for all: restructuring the social security scheme in Indonesia - issues & options

The report produced at the end of the technical assistance input (ILO/TAP/Indonesia/R.20) set out recommendations for follow-up and the project: “Restructuring of the Social Security System” (INS/00/M04/NET) was implemented as a direct result of these recommendations. The objectives of the project were the establishment of a new institutional structure for the national social security scheme and the development of a national strategic plan for the restructuring of the social security system.

The purpose of this publication is to present the series of studies undertaken during the project and others closely associated with it in a consolidated, readable form — hopefully with wider appeal than the formal project report presented to the government of Indonesia following the end of the project which ran from 1st April 2001 to 31st December 2002 (with a break in project activities between 30th May and 1st August 2002).
