- Abstract
The study aimed to evaluate the presence of training alumni and the existence of standard operating procedures (SOP) related to the improvement of competencies of cattle traders, slaughterers and stockmanship in implementing animal welfare at Ruminant Slaughter Houses (RSHs). The study was conducted at 16 RSHs in districts in 11 provinces from November 2014 to February 2015. Samples consisted of 38 stockmanship, 32 slaughterers, 32 cattle traders and 25 training alumni. Samples were segregated based on the dissemination of training results attended by training alumni and on the presence of slaughterhouse SOP. The study was performed by using survey, and data was collected by observation and interview using questionnaires. Data was analysed using T test and descriptive statistic. The results showed that the percentage of animal welfare implementation at RSHs varied at the phases of activities. The highest percentage was in the slaughthering activities, amounted to 78.1%, but in the animal knocking down activities, both by manual and stunning system, the percentage was low (< 50 %). The RSHs that had training alumni, the competency improvement of stockmanship in implementing animal welfare has not yet been seen. This might be due to training alumni that had other position so they had less time for the RSHs progress and were unfocused as well as ineffective dissemination, coordination and cooperation. While the existence of SOP at RSHs showed that there was improvement of knowledge and skills of stockmanship in implementing animal welfare but not accompanied by the improvement in attitude. This condition need the addition of non-technical materials that can touch the realm of attitudes, communication, motivation, learning psychology, and mentoring teqniques. A special approach is needed in the development of animal welfare training design for RSHs staff, either in the form of Off or On The Job Training Program, or combining two programs
