Medical Checkup
Universitas Terbuka (UT) routinely organizes an annual Medical Check-Up program for all employees as a comprehensive step in maintaining and monitoring the health of human resources. The program includes basic health checks designed to identify general health risks and specialized services such as pap smear tests focused on early detection of cervical cancer. Through these efforts, UT is committed to creating a healthy, productive, and safe work environment for all employees.
This health check initiative is a form of UT's responsibility to give full attention to employee welfare, which aligns with the Sustainable Development Goals related to Good Health and Well-being. With early detection, potential health problems can be prevented or treated early to maintain employees' quality of life. This activity not only supports individual physical health but also positively impacts a productive and sustainable work climate on campus.

Klinik Pratama UT
Universitas Terbuka also supports public health through its primary care facility, Klinik Pratama UT, which is open to the public. This clinic provides accessible healthcare services to patients within and outside the university community, further expanding UT’s role in promoting health and well-being. By offering services to the broader community, Klinik Pratama UT facilitates more accessible access to essential healthcare, contributing to the prevention, early detection, and management of health conditions among the public.
Furthermore, Universitas Terbuka held a Health Talk activity titled “Wise Use of Drugs,” filled by Dr. Ade Rahmawati, Sp. PD. This event was held on July 14, 2023, at the UTCC Parking Lot, which began with a Healthy Gymnastics session. This activity offered participants various free health check-up services, including blood pressure, blood sugar, cholesterol checks, and attractive door prizes.
This initiative is part of UT's commitment to support Sustainable Development Goal (SDG) 3, Good Health and Well-being, by providing health education and screening services that are accessible to the community. Through this event, UT seeks to raise awareness of the importance of wise drug use and provide opportunities for the community to monitor their health conditions regularly. This activity improves individual health and creates a healthier and more resilient environment within the campus community and beyond.
Khitanan Massal
On July 1, 2023, UT held a Khitanan Massal (Mass Circumcision activity) titled "UT Cares to Build a Healthy Generation for Indonesia." This mass circumcision activity is a form of UT's concern to make it easier for the community to immediately implement one of the Islamic laws, creating a healthier and more pious generation. This Mass Circumcision is a routine activity and is part of the event to revitalize the 39th Anniversary of Universitas Terbuka. For 2023, the event will usually be held at the UT Polyclinic at UT Pusat, Pondok Cabe, Tangsel. It has spread to the Regional UT this time, specifically at the UT Serang Office.
The Director of UT Serang also reported that the number of children circumcised was 100 children. The UT Polyclinic deployed its team for the smoothness and comfort of the children who would be circumcised.
According to UT Rector Prof. Ojat Darojat, M.Bus., Ph.D., this mass circumcision was the first activity held at the Regional UT, which was chosen at UT Serang at this time. This Mass Circumcision was focused on reaching more people in need in the Banten region. The Rector hopes that with this activity, UT will be more beneficial for the children of the Indonesian nation wherever they are.
1. Sexual and reproductive health care services for students
UT is firmly committed to fostering a safe and secure environment for all staff, faculty, and students. This commitment is underscored by UT Rector Regulation No. 1173 of 2022 concerning employee management. Furthermore, UT has established an Anti-Sexual Violence Taskforce (PPKS) that conducts orientation sessions for new students each enrollment period. These sessions aim to enhance awareness about sexual violence and outline the procedures for reporting incidents, thereby ensuring that all members of the university community are well-informed and empowered to contribute to a respectful and secure campus environment.
