Tanggung Jawab Perusahaan Terhadap Kehilangan Barang Penumpang Yang Berada Di Dalam Kapal Di Panipahan Kecamatan Pasir Limau Kapas

Abstract

The study with the title "Corporate Responsibility for Loss of Passenger Goods that Are Inside the
Ship in Panipahan, Pasir Limau Kapas Sub-District" aims to determine the Company's responsibility for
passenger goods and to know the resolution of goods suffered by passengers. This research includes
empirical legal research.
The research is to find out the business actors' responsibility for losing luggage of passengers who
are inside the ship, while the research data comes from primary data and secondary data obtained by means
of interviews with the company and related parties. Problems arise where there is a clause in the
transportation document (passenger ticket) which states that the transport company is not responsible for
loss or damage during the trip. This is clearly contrary to Article 40 Paragraph (1) of Law Number 17 Year
2008 concerning Shipping.
The conclusion from the results of this study is that the attitude of discipline in carrying out the rules
of transporters, passengers and the government in order to create safe, comfortable and orderly services, to
improve shipping quality that prioritizes comfort, security and order, transport companies should be
responsible because they have clearly the transport agreement is made between the transport company and
the passenger. The shipping company must also include baggage documents and label the passenger
baggage so that it is not exchanged and easily prove that the transport company must also pay attention to
the Law related to the future in carrying out its business activities in order to advance sea transportation
and remain a passenger choice transportation. The transportation company in the future should make
compensation provisions to see the initial agreement between the transport company and the passenger and
pay attention to the compensation mechanism that has been regulated in the Act so as not to cause harm to
passengers.
