Abstract

This study aims to identify the type of health functional position and the level of functional position appropriate to be placed in the health center. This is because the placement of health workers in the Indonesian Public Health Center (Puskesmas) is still not standard. It is characterized by the absence of government regulations, both central and regional, which explicitly state the right type of functional health position to be placed in the puskesmas. This study used a job-fit comparison method. Through a questionnaire distributed to health workers serving in selected puskesmas in DKI Jakarta and the city of Banjarbaru, South Kalimantan province, each health worker was asked to fill in the tasks that he/she had done, then compared with job descriptions of each type of health functional position that was contained in each of the Minister of Utilization of the State Apparatus. Based on this comparison, there is a range of levels of functional health positions that could be placed in urban health centers, which regulates the functional level requirements of 15 functional health positions cover of Public Health Instructors, Sanitarians, Doctors, Dentists, Nurses, Dental Nurses, Midwives, Nutritionists, Health Laboratory Staff, Radiographers, Pharmacists, Assistant Pharmacists, Epidemiologists, Entomologists, and Medical Recorders.
