Community

Company is always committed to providing sustainable benefits to support creation of community independence. Therefore, it is important for Company to always collaborate with all stakeholders so that community development programs are carried out in line with regional development agenda in order to realize sustainable development.

Company realizes that mining operations have social impacts that can be beneficial or detrimental to community. Positive impact of mining for surrounding community is availability of job opportunities for surrounding community so as to provide regional economic growth. In addition, social responsibility programs carried out by Company can help welfare of community in various fields.

On the other hand, mining activities have several negative impacts on local community, such as land relocation, income inequality, damage to population infrastructure and social dynamics due to Company's presence in operational area. As part of implementation of good corporate governance, Company must implement social responsibility by increasing positive impact felt by community and minimizing negative impact caused by operating activities.

Company realizes that progress of community around operational area is a manifestation of Company's development and success. To that end, Company always prioritizes good mining practices and social justice in accordance with applicable laws and norms.

To improve quality of life of community towards regional independence, Company has formulated policies and strategies based on vision and mission as well as a corporate culture which are implemented through various social responsibility programs that are carried out. Social responsibility program aims to create a company that is safe and friendly to stakeholders through implementation of Corporate Social Responsibility (“CSR”) so that it can support Company's vision as World Leader Mining Contractor with The Best Productivity, Engineering, Occupational Safety, Health and Environment (BEST PRESENT).
