Understanding TKBT Certification

Level Comparison

TKBT Level 1 covers basic height safety for supervised work, while Level 2 qualifies workers for independent operations and supervisory roles on tall structures.

Definition

TKBT (Tenaga Kerja Bangunan Tinggi) certifies workers specifically for construction work at heights, focusing on building-related tasks while ensuring safety compliance.

Work Coverage

Includes scaffolding assembly, structural steel erection, concrete formwork, building maintenance, and exterior finishing work on high-rise structures.

Understanding TKPK Certification

TKPK Level 1

Entry-level certification for basic work at heights under supervision, covering fundamental safety protocols and equipment usage.

TKPK Level 2

Intermediate certification allowing independent work at heights with comprehensive knowledge of complex safety systems and rescue procedures.

TKPK Level 3

Advanced certification qualifying workers for supervisory roles, training responsibilities, and complex height safety planning and risk assessment.

Key Differences Between TKBT and TKPK

Job Scope & Coverage

TKBT: Focuses on high-rise construction tasks, such as multi-story building projects or skyscrapers.

TKPK: Covers a broader range of work at height, not limited to tall buildings (e.g., telecommunications towers, bridges, or other high-risk construction sites).

Safety Risks

TKBT: Faces fall risks plus dangers like structural collapse and heavy equipment accidents in large-scale construction zones.

TKPK: Primarily deals with fall hazards. They must follow proper height safety protocols and consistently use PPE (Personal Protective Equipment).

Training & Certification

TKBT: Requires specialized training in high-rise construction, including scaffolding, heavy machinery, and advanced safety standards.

TKPK: Needs a general understanding of safe work practices at height, proper PPE usage, and basic rescue procedures.
