Abstract

Penelitian ini menggunakan pendekatan kualitatif dengan metode deskriptif. Data diperoleh melalui wawancara mendalam, observasi lapangan, dan dokumentasi terhadap pekerja makam yang berstatus sebagai Penyedia Jasa Lainnya Perorangan (PJLP) dan Pekerja Harian Lepas (PHL). Penelitian ini dilaksanakan pada bulan Mei sampai dengan bulan Agustus 2025. Subjek penelitian ini terdiri dari 8 orang, yaitu terdiri dari 3 orang PJLP, 3 orang PHL, 1 orang admin dan 1 orang keamanan serta 2 orang keluarga duka. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa kondisi ekonomi para pekerja makam cenderung tidak stabil, terutama bagi mereka yang bekerja secara harian tanpa kontrak tetap. Selain menghadapi beban kerja fisik yang berat, mereka juga berhadapan dengan stigma sosial dan marginalisasi yang melekat pada profesi mereka. Untuk mempertahankan keberlangsungan hidup, para pekerja makam menerapkan berbagai strategi adaptif, seperti mencari pekerjaan tambahan di luar jam kerja, memanfaatkan jaringan sosial di antara sesama pekerja, serta membangun hubungan baik dengan keluarga ahli waris sebagai bentuk modal sosial. Strategi-strategi tersebut menggambarkan bagaimana mereka menegosiasikan keterbatasan struktural melalui bentuk-bentuk adaptasi aktif, pasif, dan jaringan sebagaimana dijelaskan dalam teori strategi adaptasi John W. Bennett serta berlandaskan pada prinsip Ekonomi Moral oleh E.P. Thompson. ***** This study investigates the survival strategies of graveyard workers at the Pondok Ranggon Public Cemetery (TPU) in East Jakarta in facing these economic and social challenges. Although they play a critical role in providing funeral services, this group of workers is often marginalized and receives limited attention from both the public and the government. This research employs a qualitative approach with a descriptive method. Data were gathered through in-depth interviews, field observation, and documentation involving workers categorized as Individual Service Providers (PJLP) and Daily Contract Workers (PHL). The research was conducted from May to August 2025. The research subjects consisted of 8 individuals: 3 PJLP, 3 PHL, 1 administrator, 1 security guard and and two bereaved family members. The findings indicate that the economic conditions of graveyard workers tend to be unstable, particularly for those working daily without a fixed contract. In addition to enduring heavy physical labor, they also confront social stigma and marginalization inherent in their profession. To maintain their livelihood, the workers implement various adaptive strategies, such as seeking additional work outside working hours, utilizing social networks among fellow workers, and building good relationships with the heirs of the deceased as a form of social capital. These strategies illustrate how they negotiate structural limitations through forms of active, passive, and network adaptations, as explained by John W. Bennett’s theory of adaptive strategies and grounded in the principles of the Moral Economy by E.P. Thompson. This study demonstrates that graveyard workers are not merely victims of socio-economic injustice, but also actors capable of creatively adapting to maintain their moral existence and dignity. The findings are expected to serve as consideration for local government and social institutions in designing policies more favorable to improving the welfare of informal sector workers, particularly in the funeral services sector.
