Firefighters in Indonesia: duties, requirements, status, pay and applying safely
Local governments hire firefighters as CPNS, PPPK or contract staff after physical tests. Official selection is free; paid routes are scams.
Summary
- The civil-service firefighter functional post (Jabatan Fungsional Pemadam Kebakaran) has four levels: Pemula, Terampil, Mahir and Penyelia (PermenPANRB 16/2019).
- Law 20/2023 on the civil service (ASN) bars government agencies from appointing new non-ASN or honorary (honorer) staff.
- Part-time PPPK posts are only for people who took the 2024 ASN selection without getting a post, under PermenPANRB 9/2026; they are not a new route anyone can buy.
- The 2025 PJLP firefighter announcement in West Jakarta says the whole process is free and calls paid promises of a pass fraud.
- Airport firefighters (PKP-PK personnel) must hold a competency certificate under Ministerial Regulation PM 37/2021.

What does a firefighter do in Indonesia?
Firefighters put out fires and rescue people, and also help prevent fires in the community. PermenPANRB 16/2019 sets the task of the civil-service firefighter post as firefighting and rescue, with activities such as roll calls and shift handovers, equipment checks, driving fire engines, evacuating victims, drills and physical training. At airports, similar work is done by airport rescue and firefighting (PKP-PK) personnel.
- Prepare and check the number and working order of firefighting and rescue equipment at every shift change.
- Attend roll calls, shift handovers and duty rosters.
- Put out and control fires with the crew at the scene.
- Evacuate and rescue people, including in incidents other than fires.
- Drive or operate fire engines and pumps within your authority.
- Write incident reports and equipment check reports.
- Take part in regular equipment drills and physical training.
- Help with fire prevention and community education.
How do you become a firefighter in Indonesia, and what do you need?
The basic requirements are at least senior high school, physical and mental health and a pass in the fitness test. The 2025 West Jakarta PJLP announcement, for example, asked for a health letter stating no colour blindness, a police clearance and a fitness test of a 12-minute run, pull-ups, sit-ups, push-ups, a shuttle run and a 25-metre swim. For civil servants, PermenPANRB 1/2023 requires at least senior high school for skills-category functional posts.
What does a typical firefighter job description look like?
Firefighter vacancies usually come from regional government fire services, fire teams in industrial estates or airport PKP-PK units. They typically list education, health and fitness requirements and a willingness to work rotating shifts. We wrote the description below ourselves from common announcement patterns; it is not a vacancy from any agency or company. Question any requirement that has nothing to do with your ability to do the job.
General example, not a vacancy
We wrote this description ourselves from what job ads usually ask for. It is not a vacancy from any company.
Commonly requested requirements
- Senior high school, vocational school or equivalent; fire analyst posts require a bachelor's or D4 degree.
- Physical and mental health, no colour blindness, and a pass in fitness tests such as running, pull-ups, push-ups and swimming.
- No fear of heights, darkness or confined spaces.
- Willingness to work rotating duty shifts, including nights and public holidays.
- A police clearance (SKCK) and a health letter; a driving licence helps for fire engine drivers.

Ministry of Manpower Circular M/6/HK.04/V/2025 bars employers from discriminating on any basis in recruitment. An age requirement is allowed only where the nature of the job genuinely affects ability and it does not remove the chance of work, and the same applies to workers with disabilities. Law 13/2003 Articles 5 and 6 guarantee equal opportunity and treatment without discrimination. JDIH Kementerian Ketenagakerjaan JDIH BPK RI (peraturan.bpk.go.id)
How much does a firefighter earn in Indonesia?
For civil-service firefighters, the table below shows official base pay under PP 5/2024 from grade II/a to III/d, matching the Pemula to Penyelia levels in PermenPANRB 16/2019; allowances are not included. PJLP pay follows the regional government's rules, according to the 2025 West Jakarta PJLP announcement. For private fire teams, KarirAman has no data that meets our standard yet; the floor is the local minimum wage under PP 36/2021.

What education and training do firefighters need?
Most firefighters start with a senior high or vocational school certificate and are trained after they are hired. Permendagri 86/2022 sets basic, functional and technical training for fire and rescue service staff, run by the Ministry of Home Affairs or accredited government training bodies and ending with a completion certificate (STTPP). Bachelor's or D4 graduates can take the fire analyst functional post. At airports, PM 37/2021 requires a PKP-PK competency certificate.
Are firefighters in Indonesia civil servants, PPPK or contract staff?
In regional fire services, firefighters may be civil servants (PNS), PPPK or contract staff such as Jakarta's PJLP contractors. Law 20/2023 Article 66 bars agencies from appointing new non-ASN staff, so honorary posts are no longer a way in. Under PermenPANRB 9/2026, part-time PPPK posts are only for non-ASN staff in the BKN database who failed the 2024 CPNS selection or got no 2024 PPPK post, and for 2024 PPPK applicants without a post; the need is set once.
Legal status: the Labour Protection Law was approved by the DPR and the Government on 6 October 2026 but has not been promulgated and its text is not public. Until it takes effect, the rules on this page apply.

How does a civil-service firefighter's career progress?
The firefighter functional post is a skills-category post with four levels, Pemula, Terampil, Mahir and Penyelia, under PermenPANRB 16/2019. Annex III of that regulation maps Pemula to grade II/a, and Penyelia to grades III/c to III/d. Bachelor's or D4 graduates can take the fire analyst functional post, an expertise-category post with levels from Ahli Pertama to Ahli Madya (PermenPANRB 17/2019).
Where else do firefighters work besides regional fire services?
Firefighters also work for companies and airports. Minister of Manpower Circular 13/MEN/XI/2015 asks employers to form a fire-response unit made up of fire wardens, a fire team, a coordinator and a fire safety specialist. At airports, PM 37/2021 sets PKP-PK personnel with basic, junior and senior levels, and every airport worker in a regulated field must hold a competency certificate.
What are the risks and social security arrangements for firefighters?
Firefighting is high-risk work: heat, smoke, heights, confined spaces and buildings that may collapse. Make sure your employment status and coverage are clear before you start.
- Employers must register their workers with BPJS social security (Law 24/2011 Article 15). If you are on contract, ask about BPJS Ketenagakerjaan membership for work-accident and death cover.
- Law 1/1970 on Work Safety Article 14 requires management to provide all required protective equipment free of charge, and Article 12 gives workers the right to object to work when safety conditions and protective equipment are in doubt, except in special cases set by the labour inspector.
- The 2025 West Jakarta PJLP announcement required applicants to be active members of BPJS Kesehatan, the national health insurance.
What should you prepare before a firefighter selection?
The best preparation is to train your fitness and gather your documents well before an announcement opens.
- Check announcements only on the regional government's official portal or SSCASN, and read the schedule and requirements to the end.
- Train for the usual fitness tests, such as running, pull-ups, push-ups and swimming.
- Prepare a health letter, your school certificate and a police clearance; the Panduan Warga police clearance (SKCK) guide explains how to get one.
- Never pay anyone who promises you a pass. If you have already paid, keep the evidence and report it.

What interview questions might you be asked for firefighter jobs?
Interview questions for firefighter jobs often cover why you chose this field, physical readiness, following rules, staying calm in an emergency, and what you would do if offered help to pass selection in exchange for money. Each example below comes with why it is asked and how to answer it. The Ministry of Manpower warns that an instant chat interview without formal confirmation is one sign of a fake job.

What firefighter job scams should you watch for?
One scam to watch for is a promise of a place as a firefighter, honorary staff member, PJLP contractor or PPPK in exchange for money. The 2025 West Jakarta PJLP announcement states that the whole process is free and calls anyone promising a pass for payment a fraudster. Since Law 20/2023, agencies may not appoint new non-ASN staff either, so a paid honorary route should raise your suspicion.

Where can you find official firefighter vacancies?
Civil-service (PNS) and PPPK firefighter posts are announced on SSCASN, the civil service agency's portal. Contract recruitment for fire services is announced on the regional government's official portal; in Jakarta, the 2025 PJLP firefighter announcement was published on the provincial government's official portal, jakarta.go.id. Look for industrial fire team and airport PKP-PK jobs on companies' official careers sites or the Ministry of Manpower's Karirhub. KarirAman does not list any verified firefighter vacancies yet.

Frequently asked questions
Can a senior high school graduate become a firefighter in Indonesia?
Yes. PermenPANRB 1/2023 sets senior high school (SLTA) as the minimum qualification for first appointment to skills-category functional posts, and the firefighter post is in that category. The 2025 PJLP firefighter announcement in West Jakarta and the airport PKP-PK requirements in PM 37/2021 also ask for at least senior high school.
Do PJLP or contract firefighters automatically become civil servants?
No. The 2025 West Jakarta PJLP announcement asks applicants to sign a statement that they will not demand appointment as ASN. The way to become a civil servant (PNS) or PPPK is the CASN selection on SSCASN. Under PermenPANRB 9/2026, part-time PPPK posts are only for non-ASN staff in the BKN database who failed the 2024 CPNS selection or got no post in the 2024 PPPK selection, and for applicants who completed every stage of the 2024 PPPK selection without a post; the need is set only once.
What is PKP-PK at an airport?
PKP-PK stands for pertolongan kecelakaan penerbangan dan pemadam kebakaran, the airport rescue and firefighting service. Under PM 37/2021, airport PKP-PK personnel have basic, junior and senior levels, and moving up requires at least two years at the previous level. Candidates need at least senior high school, good health, no drug use, no colour blindness and passive English.
Is there an SKKNI standard or BNSP certificate for firefighters?
When we checked the Ministry of Manpower's SKKNI registry on 8 October 2026, we found no national competency standard specific to firefighters; there is, for example, one for building fire safety managers. The BNSP directory lists a fire-protection certification body with one scheme, fire safety manager. Regional firefighters are trained through basic, functional and technical courses under Permendagri 86/2022.
Should I pay someone to get a firefighter job?
No. The 2025 West Jakarta PJLP announcement calls anyone who promises acceptance in exchange for payment a fraudster who should be reported to the authorities. The civil service agency BKN also says CPNS and PPPK selection carries no fee, and both the person who pays and the person who takes the money can face criminal charges. Keep the evidence and report it.
What is the difference between a firefighter and a safety officer?
Firefighters put out fires and carry out rescues in the field, usually for regional fire services, airports or company fire teams. Safety officers prevent accidents and fires at work through inspections, work permits and training. Minister of Manpower Circular 13/MEN/XI/2015 asks companies to form a fire-response unit with fire wardens, a fire team, a coordinator and a fire safety specialist.
