Abstract

Certified sustainable community forests in Indonesia continue to grow in number for the Forest Stewardship Council (FSC) scheme. At least three aspects have been fulfilled namely, sustainable production, protected ecosystems, and social contribution. However, the problem of 'need cutting' in community forests has the potential to hamper forest management in terms of timber harvesting. Three FSC certified community forest management units in East Java, Enggal Mulyo, KSU KAM KTI, KSU Bromo Mandiri KTI, demonstrated this challenge through evaluating the log harvest records, discussions with managers and farmers, and field observations. Harvesting plans are only based on periodic tree inventory data that does not take into account the farmers' harvest needs, such as weddings or celebrations. Therefore, all annual timber production targets cannot be achieved, indicating that need harvesting and delayed logging are also still visible in internationally certified sustainable forest management. Support from managers and parties is still needed so that the management plan can be implemented properly. The owner of the FSC scheme also needs to evaluate their standard requirements for implementing timber harvesting on a more realistic scale of community forests.

Abstract

The forestry industry outside Java continues to rely on chainsaw-based logging in natural forests, a technique that involves significant safety risks due to the size of harvested trees, machine hazards, and challenging environmental conditions. These risks highlight the need for skilled operators and effective Occupational Safety and Health (OSH) systems. This study was conducted at two Indonesian State Forest Concessions in East Kalimantan and examined OSH implementation among chainsaw operators. Data were collected through questionnaires with both qualitative and quantitative components, field observations, interviews, and analysis of company documents, including work plans and safety procedures. The results showed that operator awareness of OSH was very high (85.94%), and support and guidance from managers and foremen also strongly influenced compliance (75.97% and 76.81%, respectively). However, barriers remained (49.46%), particularly in the form of incomplete Personal Protective Equipment (PPE), operator discomfort when using certain PPE, and the absence of structured training. These shortcomings indicate a gap between policy and practice. Addressing these issues requires companies not only to provide complete and comfortable PPE but also to enhance training and actively enforce safety protocols. Strengthening these measures would improve both worker safety and the overall sustainability of forest operations.
