Abstract

The low implementation of green building through building certification in Jakarta is responsible for the decreased achievement of reducing greenhouse gas emissions in 2020. This is observed in the energy sector through the efficient use of power in commercial buildings, which is only 37,789 tons (0.72 %) of the 5.26 million tons of CO2e expected in 2030, potentially causing the effects of a climate change-related disaster. In this case, the low prevalence of green buildings is due to the barriers preventing their implementation, with the provision of incentives being a suitable solution regarding its significant influence on rapid development. Therefore, this study aims to determine the influential relationship between barriers, incentives, and the level of green building implementation, to identify the most effective applicable benefits in Jakarta. In this context, path analysis and structural equation modeling (SEM) was used with 101 participants selected from developer/owner institutions, consultants, contractors, and the government experienced in implementing the experimental data of the buildings. These data were subsequently analyzed using Partial Least Squares Structural Equation Modeling (PLS-SEM). The results showed that cost-risk and knowledge-information barrier significantly impacted the level of green building implementation in Jakarta. This led to the recommendation of non-financial incentives as an effective regional benefit, which relevantly affected the level of green building implementation, as well as cost-risk and knowledge-information barriers. These results were expected to assist policymakers and practitioners in formulating effective incentive policies for the implementation of green buildings in Jakarta.

Abstract

The construction industry, recognized as one of the most hazardous sectors globally, continues to face escalating challenges, particularly in Indonesia. This sector experiences a yearly increase in workplace accidents, which significantly disrupts economic stability at both micro and macro levels. These incidents lead to substantial economic losses, reduced productivity, and increased medical and compensation costs. To address these risks, the adoption of Learning from Incidents (LFI) has emerged as a critical approach. LFI is a structured process that involves analysing and learning from past incidents to prevent future occurrences, offering a proven methodology to enhance workplace safety. However, despite its potential, the implementation of LFI in Indonesia encounters persistent obstacles. These include a weak safety culture, inadequate reporting systems, and insufficient enforcement of safety standards. Such challenges hinder the effectiveness of LFI and limit its capacity to drive meaningful improvements in construction safety. This study seeks to bridge the gap between the importance and current performance of LFI implementation in the Indonesian construction industry. The research methodology integrates a literature review, expert validation, and Importance-Performance Analysis. Through the literature review and expert validation, critical indicators for LFI implementation were identified, while the Importance-Performance Analysis assessed the alignment of expectations with actual performance as perceived by construction practitioners. Input from three construction safety experts and industry practitioners formed the basis of the analysis. The findings reveal that while Investigation Participation met or exceeded expectations, several other LFI implementation indicators–including Contextual Safety Engineering and Dissemination Reach–require substantial improvement. This consensus highlights significant discrepancies between intended outcomes and actual practices, underscoring the need for targeted strategies to enhance LFI processes. Addressing these gaps can better align LFI implementation with safety objectives, ultimately fostering a safer and more sustainable construction industry in Indonesia.
