Abstract

Currently, there are two practices to assess the environmental and social impacts of the power development projects in Indonesia, namely Indonesia Environmental Impact Assessment (EIA) or Amdal and Environmental and Social Impact Assessment (ESIA) based on the International Finance Corporation (IFC) Performance Standards. However, the ESIA practices in Indonesia, in particular, have yet to be thoroughly examined in the academic context. This research compares the procedural features and environmental and socio-economic aspect coverage of Indonesia's EIA against the IFC (IFC PS) ESIA. A document analysis was employed to systematically analyze the main divergences and similarities contrasted with applicable Indonesian regulations and IFC PS. The results show distinctive differences between Indonesia's EIA and ESIA regarding screening, public participation, scoping, the study of alternatives, impact analysis, review and decision-making, environmental management plans and follow-up, and complementary parallel studies. The research also found that EIA is lacking in covering aspects of ecosystem services, labor, groundwater, landscape and visual impacts, cultural heritage, community safety and security, and non-routine activity or unplanned events. The identified gaps could suggest improvement to ensure Indonesia's EIA and ESIA practices in Indonesia align and provide benefits for sustainable development.

Abstract

The construction industry is commonly perceived as high-risk and involves a large workforce. The COVID-19 poses an additional risk in construction projects to occupational health and safety. DKI Jakarta Province is the epicenter of confirmed COVID-19 cases in Indonesia. This research examined the COVID-19 impact on occupational health and safety in construction projects. A quantitative approach was used, an online distribution questionnaire was conducted to construction workers in DKI Jakarta, with 74 workers participating, and the correlation analysis was using the software IBM SPSS. The result shows that the COVID-19 pandemic increases the risk of occupational health and safety and workers’ anxiety. However, it has had an indirect positive impact on workers’ behavior. Increasing workers’ awareness of occupational health, safety, and healthy lifestyles. The findings of this research provide evidence that the COVID-19 pandemic is a driving force for workers’ behavior changes and raises awareness of workplace safety and health concerns regarding construction projects.
