We care about the livelihoods of the communities around us and are committed to improving their living standards by focusing on employment, health and education. Community empowerment is fundamental to our social license to operate.
Inclusive Prosperity
We believe that wherever we operate, we have to help our communities in improving the quality of their lives and well-being.
Our approach
As one of the biggest employers and a major contributor to the socioeconomic development in PangkalanKerinci, we strive to have a positive impact on the communities that surround us. We do this through community development programmes and by creating jobs aligned with government initiatives while also continuously improving our employees’ livelihoods.
Through a series of community livelihoods initiatives, we are supporting inclusive prosperity in marginalized communities. These initiatives will deliver sustained livelihoods, support gender empowerment and provide communities with improved access to basic health services.
