Abstract
Everyone has the right for the protection of their wellbeing, which includes protection from accidents, disasters, and conditions which may endanger humans, where on eof them are realized through search and rescue in a fast, precise, safe, integrated and coordinated manner in case of an accidents, disasters and other dangerous conditions, as stated in the preamble of Law Number 29 of 2014 concerning Search and Rescue. Accidents, disasters and other dangerous conditions to humans can happen anywhere, anytime and can happen to anyone. As a result, of course it will have an impact both physically and psychologically on both the victim and their family, and to the SAR volunteers who carry out the operation, not to mention other impact like the depletion of natural resources, human capital and social capital, and even institutional capital in an effort to provide protection for victims, families of victims, and also to SAR volunteers. Based on this, the author concludes that the SAR volunteers is in need for legal protection in the form of more concrete legal policies through the issuance of government regulations on duties, powers, responsibilities, and legal protection for SAR Volunteer and/ or reformulating the Act of Search and Rescue to help SAR volunteers who injured the victim due to the rescue process by SAR volunteers so that such action that are often tied to the Article 50 of the Criminal Code is not an act of negligence.
