<![CDATA[Indonesia is the largest archipelagic country in the world (based on area and population), which makes it as one of countries with the most significant maritime activities. Therefore, there has been a high rate of maritime accidents in Indonesia. The National Search and Rescue Agency (BASARNAS) as a non-ministerial government agency with the primary task of Search and Rescue (SAR) operation deals with several types of accidents, including maritime accidents. Response time as the time to receive news about the accidents until the SAR unit comes to the rescue is very crucial in this matter. Average response time is stipulated based on BASARNAS’s regulations to estimate information about the survival probability of the victims. This research concerns with the survival analysis using Kaplan-Meier Method and Log-Rank Test. The researchers categorized maritime accidents into three categories: ‘Low’, ‘Medium’, and ‘High’. This classification aims to find out whether the survival function of each category has the same or different function and to investigate whether there are differences from the given responses or not. The survival analysis with Kaplan-Meier method revealed that the three categories had different survival functions. The survival analysis was followed by a Log-Rank Test. The final result shows that there is no difference in the responses given by the three categories when maritime accidents occur.
