In his presentation, Tonny Gultom explained Harita Nickel’s commitment to developing a sustainable nickel industry. “We are not only engaged in mining activities but also in building processing plants. This is one of Harita’s commitments to creating a sustainable mining operation. We process our mined materials domestically, thus creating downstream economic value, job opportunities, and ultimately supporting community welfare. That’s what we call sustainable mining,” said Tonny.
Tonny also emphasized that Harita Nickel’s sustainability efforts focus not only on economic gain but also on social and environmental impact. The company maintain environmental balance on Obi Island, North Maluku, and to support local community development through various empowerment programs. “We want to ensure that our mining activities benefit the surrounding community while keeping the environment intact,” he stated.
Meanwhile, Professor Etih provided an in-depth academic perspective on the challenges of preserving the environment amidst the demand for nickel mining. She highlighted that open-pit mining, commonly used in nickel extraction, can significantly impact ecosystems. “We must consider the environmental impact of mining activities. Therefore, environmentally friendly technology is essential to minimize these impacts,” she said.
Students were eager to engage in discussions and Q&A sessions with the speakers, with several expressing strong interest in sustainability topics and career opportunities in the nickel mining industry. Salsabilla, a 2022 Environmental Engineering student, stated that HGTC was very beneficial for her. “I gained deeper insight into sustainable environmental management conducted by Harita Nickel. I hope Harita continues to grow and makes innovations that contribute to the nation,” she shared.
This event served as a real-life example of how collaboration between industry and academia can create new opportunities and raising awareness of nickel’s importance in sustainable energy transition. By involving young generations in sustainability discussions, Harita Nickel contributes to creating a more efficient and responsible future for the industry.

Harita Nickel Talks About Sustainable Energy Transition in ITENAS Bandung

On a Saturday night in the living quarters of PT Halmahera Jaya Feronikel (HJF), a different atmosphere was felt in one corner of the employee housing area. Instead of winding down after a day’s work, several employees from various departments gathered to attend an insightful knowledge-sharing session. The topic? Photography.
Led by Rellixs Agustian, the Digital Media Production Supervisor at Harita Nickel, the session wasn’t about complex concepts or requiring advanced knowledge. It focused on sharing the basics of photography&mdash;something that caught the interest of many, especially in an era where almost everyone has a camera in their pocket.
The session began with a light discussion about what truly makes a photo stand out? “An expensive camera is just a tool; what truly matters is how we see and capture the story,” Rellixs explained with a smile. From there, the conversation seamlessly transitioned into essential techniques, such as selecting the right angles, mastering lighting, and creating visually compelling compositions.

<figcaption>A moment of the employee photo exhibition held in the courtyard of the PT HJF cafe.</figcaption>

 
Highly positive response and enthusiasm were seen in all participants. Among them was Aidatul Fitriyyah Sulaiman, an employee from Dispatch Department. Aida, as she is commonly known, expressed her appreciation for the easy-to-digest approach to the material, despite her lack of prior experience in photography.
“The content was beginner-friendly. As someone with no background in photography, I felt comfortable learning alongside colleagues who already had experience,” Aida remarked.
She further acknowledged that photography, while seemingly straightforward, is a complex field. Mastering it requires familiarity with a variety of terms and techniques to produce meaningful and visually striking photographs.
“Photography seems simple, but there are so much to learn,” Aida said enthusiastically. “It made me even more eager to dive deeper into the subject. If there’s another session like this, I’ll definitely join.”
What made this session special was not just the material but also the atmosphere. There was no formal or rigid tone; participants were free to ask questions anytime, share a laugh, and even recount their own experiences with photography.
Despite being a modestly scaled event, the session delivered a meaningful impact. Not only expanding participants’ knowledge but also providing a refreshing change of pace from their daily work routines. By the end, attendees expressed a strong sense of pride and curiosity, eager to apply their newfound insights.
In his closing remarks, Rellixs wrapped up with a simple yet impactful message: “Photography isn’t just about taking pictures; it’s about telling a story.”
The session, while simple in its execution, left a lasting impression by encouraging participants to view the world from new perspectives. This, perhaps, is the true essence of photography&mdash;not solely about the outcome but about the process of observation, understanding, storytelling, and finding joy in the journey.

Sharing Session on Photography: Telling Stories Through Camera Shots

Over 300 students from Universitas Gadjah Mada (UGM) attended a public lecture titled "The Role of Nickel and Energy Transition in Building a Clean Future in Indonesia." The event, held at the Auditorium of the Smart Green Learning Center (SGLC) in the Faculty of Engineering at UGM, was part of the Harita Nickel Goes to Campus (HGTC) program. This initiative aims to provide students with insights into the strategic role of nickel in supporting Indonesia's sustainable energy transition.
The event featured Harita Nickel’s Director of Health, Safety, and Environment (HSE), Tonny Gultom, as the keynote speaker. He was accompanied by other Harita Nickel experts, including Head of Exploration and Mine Development Robby Rafianto, Climate Change Senior Specialist Muhammad Iqbal, and Community Affairs Superintendent Muhammad Yuda Pranata. The session was moderated by Dr. Eng. Ir. Lucas Donny Setijadji, S.T., M.Sc., IPU, a lecturer from UGM's Department of Geological Engineering.
In his presentation, Tonny emphasized the importance of implementing Environmental, Social, and Governance (ESG) principles in the mining industry, particularly to ensure environmental sustainability. “One of our tangible efforts is regular ecological monitoring, which includes tracking seawater quality and preserving marine biodiversity around our operational areas,” he explained.

Tonny also highlighted Harita Nickel's environmental conservation initiatives, such as the installation of artificial coral reefs, or reef cubes, in the waters near Kawasi, Obi Island. This program aims to maintain biodiversity and support fish population growth in the area. The company also conducts routine seawater quality testing, plankton sampling, and temperature monitoring to ensure the marine ecosystem remains healthy.
“We take water samples to test their quality, conduct plankton sampling, and profile seawater columns. Additionally, we monitor the health of fish and coral reefs and keep track of water temperature,” Tonny elaborated.
In addition to environmental efforts, Harita Nickel is also engaged in community empowerment programs. Community Affairs Superintendent Muhammad Yuda Pranata mentioned that the company’s agribusiness program on Obi Island, North Maluku, has created hundreds of jobs. “The Food Resilience Center in Buton Village supports 65 farming groups, with watermelon harvests reaching 8 tons every month,” Yuda said.
He further explained, “Programs like horticultural development and community entrepreneurship units have significantly improved the local economy, especially through capacity-building initiatives for local farmers.”
The lecture was met with great enthusiasm by UGM students. Kirana Permatasari, a student from the Faculty of Technology, expressed her admiration. “The event was amazing. I had the chance to learn directly from experts and gain a deeper understanding of the nickel industry in Indonesia, especially its products and derivatives,” she said.
Zito Zuma, a UGM student from the 2020 class, added, “Beyond the interesting material, this event also provided insights into how the mining industry can remain environmentally conscious while empowering local communities. I hope this program reaches other universities in Indonesia.”
The Harita Nickel Goes to Campus program is not limited to UGM but is also held at several other universities in Indonesia. Through this initiative, Harita Nickel seeks to promote responsible and sustainable mining practices while making meaningful contributions to the environment and local communities.

Harita Nickel Engages UGM Students on the Role of Nickel and Energy Transition

Seeing firsthand how nickel mining operated by Harita Nickel in Obi Island, South Halmahera, North Maluku, gives us pride. It is because nickel ore, which is one of Indonesia's rich natural resources, is directly mined and processed in its site to produce ferronickel as well as Nickel Sulfate and Cobalt Sulfate. Whereas in the past it was exported abroad in the form of nickel ore, so Indonesia used to be criticized for selling its land and water literally.&nbsp;
On Obi Island that is not the case. Nickel ore in the form of saprolite is processed into ferronickel, while limonite which has a low nickel content is processed into nickel sulfate and cobalt sulfate with High Pressure Acid Leaching (HPAL) technology.&nbsp;
After the nickel mining was completed, the ex-mining areas were properly reclaimed as evidenced by the normal growth of vegetation. As a soil science background person, I am well aware that it is not easy to grow revegetation plants in topsoil dominated by iron oxide. This kind of soil has a high pH around neutral. That seems good, but despite the high pH, these soils have a very low net positive charge and Cation Exchange Capacity (CEC), so their ability to absorb nutrients in the form of cations is also very low.&nbsp;
<img alt="Visit ipb buton" src="https://api.tbpnickel.com/storage/images/old/images/Visit IPB_Buton.jpg" title="Visit ipb buton">
<figcaption>IPB academic team visited farmland run by Harita Nickel's farmer group in Buton Village, Obi Sub-district.</figcaption>

In addition, the amount of Ca-exchangeable in this soil is smaller than the amount of Mg-exchangeable, so plants will experience Ca deficiency, an element that is essential for plant cell development. The cropping conditions in the Harita Nickel reclamation area show that these soil properties can be overcome by applying high doses of compost, which is more than 20 tons/ha.&nbsp;
However, even though it is good, for future revegetation programs it is strongly recommended that the compost used be improved first by adding FABA ((Fly Ash and Bottom Ash, which is waste ash from burning coal in Steam Power Plants) with a ratio of compost: FABA 75: 25 or KomFABA 75: 25.&nbsp;
Compost is very good for improving soil physical properties and increasing soil CEC. However, compost has low nutrient levels and requires a long time to be available to plants, which is through the decomposition process. Therefore, adding FABA can ensure the availability of nutrients needed by plants in a short time because FABA contains various nutrients in soluble form. The addition of FABA to compost will also reduce Ca deficiency in plants.
KomFABA can also be utilized in Salam Kawasi Agropark. Various food crops such as tomatoes, eggplants, corn, chilies, and others can be planted in this area as a pilot as well as to prove that the food produced in this area is safe for consumption, of course, after being proven by laboratory analysis.&nbsp;
In addition to good plant growth conditions in the reclamation area, Harita Nickel's seriousness in carrying out reclamation is also evident in the provision of various kinds of seeds with quantities exceeding the needs of revegetation each year. These seeds are prepared in a modernly built nursery area. Harita Nickel's concern for the environment is also evident in keeping erosion and sedimentation under control by building extensive settling ponds TG 1 and TG 2. These settling ponds are proven to keep the beach and sea around Obi Island, which is directly opposite the mining area, clean and blue. Also the presence of 2 very large coal domes can maintain air quality to be free from flying coal dust pollution.&nbsp;

Harita Nickel also cares about its surrounding community by building the Kawasi Baru area for the settlement of indigenous people of Kawasi Village. Community empowerment is also carried out for rice farmers, planters, fishermen, and entrepreneurs of tofu, tempeh, processed nutmeg, banana chips, and others.&nbsp;
We would like to thank Harita Nickel for the opportunity to visit Obi Island. We gained a lot of experience and knowledge, which we will certainly pass on to our students at our beloved IPB campus. From Obi to Campus, to Indonesia and to the World.&nbsp;

Inspiring Stories of IPB Professors on Site Visit to Harita Nickel 

In early December 2024, two prominent academics, Rochsyid Anggara and Rudiyansah, stepped into the heart of Harita Nickel’s flagship nickel downstreaming operation. As heads of the Mining Technology and Metallurgical Technology programs at the Polytechnic of Energy and Mining (PEP) Bandung&mdash;an institution under Indonesia’s Ministry of Energy and Mineral Resources&mdash;they carried more than just their titles.&nbsp;
Under Halmahera’s glaring sun, reflecting off heavy machinery, the two academics explored every corner of the Obi Site. From the state-of-the-art High Pressure Acid Leaching (HPAL) process that produces raw materials for EV batteries Mixed Hydroxide Precipitate (MHP), crystallization plants for nickel and cobalt sulfate, and the Rotary Kiln Electric Furnace (RKEF) smelters, they witnessed technological sophistication up close. They also toured reclamation areas, where once-mined lands are now verdant habitats, a testament to Harita Nickel’s environmental commitment.
But this journey wasn’t just about machinery and technology. As they made their way to Kawasi Village, they witnessed the transformation of a once-isolated village into a hub of community empowerment. Through Harita Nickel's Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) programs, Kawasi Village now receives support in developing Micro, Small, and Medium Enterprises (MSMEs) as well as the agricultural sector. The Propala production house, for example, stands as a tangible example of how industry can serve as a bridge for developing local skills, creating new and sustainable opportunities for the village’s economy.

<figcaption>PEP Bandung Academics provide Management Trainee Employees with the Latest Information on Metallurgical and Mining Processes through Harita Future Leaders Class</figcaption>

 
The visit culminated with the Harita Future Leaders Class, an exclusive program for Management Trainees, Foremen, and production staff. With 12 selected participants, the session resembled an intimate discussion rather than a conventional seminar.
Rudiyansah, addressing the class, emphasized HPAL’s role in placing Indonesia at the forefront of global downstreaming. “HPAL is more than just a technology&mdash;it’s a representation of our effort to maximize Indonesia’s mineral resources sustainably. By producing nickel sulfate and cobalt sulfate, we’re not just meeting market demands; we’re positioning Indonesia as a key player in the electric vehicle battery supply chain,” he said.
Meanwhile, Rochsyid highlighted often-overlooked aspects of downstreaming: workplace safety and environmental management. “Successful downstreaming requires robust occupational health and safety (OHS) practices and environmental management that evolves with the times. Community empowerment is equally vital&mdash;it’s not just about mining but also about creating a positive impact across society,” he explained.
Rochsyid expressed optimism about Harita Nickel’s commitment to continuous improvement, adding, “I hope these efforts lead to greater recognition, particularly the Good Mining Practice Award from the Ministry of Energy and Mineral Resources.”

<figcaption>PEP Bandung academics get a firsthand look at the RKEF process at one of Harita Nickel's business units, PT Halmahera Jaya Feronikel.</figcaption>

 
This visit wasn’t just an exchange of ideas&mdash;it was a shared narrative of responsibility, where industry and academia together shape a brighter future.
At the Obi Site, the lines between campus and mine blurred, replaced by a shared vision of sustainability. “Much like nickel processed with precision, this collaboration is part of Indonesia’s grand ambition: to lead globally in mineral downstreaming while staying rooted in its local essence,” Rudiyansah concluded.

Bridging Theory and Practice, PEP Bandung Academics Explore Harita Nickel’s Operations

Harita Nickel hosted a graduation ceremony for the Youth Vocational Program (Pelita) on Monday, September 2, 2024, at the Obi Island site in South Halmahera, North Maluku. The 28 graduates had successfully completed a three-month training program focused on operating Overhead Crane heavy equipment.
Through this vocational program, Harita Nickel provides opportunities for local employees in its operational area to improve their skills while also developing their career paths.
Latif Supriadi, Head of External Relations at Harita Nickel, stated that Pelita is part of the company's Community Development and Empowerment (PPM) program in education. He continued by explaining that this vocational program aims to support the sustainability of the company's business by fulfilling the need for a skilled workforce.
"Through Pelita, we are contributing to the government's vision of creating vocational education that meets the needs of today’s industry," he remarked.
This Pelita program is the second batch, following the successful graduation of 14 participants who were previously trained to operate Wheel Loaders, consisting of crew members and daily laborers (THL). This program not only teaches heavy equipment operating skills but also equips participants with mental and physical training, as well as important materials on workplace safety.
"The Pelita vocational education program teaches not just heavy equipment operation but also other essential skills for the company's operations. This is a key step in achieving operational excellence at Harita Nickel," Latif added.
<img alt="C2 dokumentasi kegiatan kelulusan pelita batchii csr 2024 dsc083111 11zon" src="https://api.tbpnickel.com/storage/images/old/images/C2_Dokumentasi_Kegiatan_Kelulusan_PELITA_BatchII_CSR_2024_DSC083111_11zon.jpg">
The Head of the Industrial Relations Development Division at the South Halmahera Manpower Office, Ladama La Sabadu, who also attended the event, expressed appreciation to Harita Nickel for continuing its commitment to improving local human resources. Ladama also advised the participants to make the most of the opportunities provided by the company.
“Let us grow and develop the spirit to learn and improve skills and show that South Halmahera's human resources can compete with other regions,” he said.
Meanwhile, participant Fajri Kadili expressed his happiness at completing the Pelita activities and graduating. This resident of Buton Village in Obi Subdistrict, who was previously a crew member, will now be appointed as an operator.
"Thank goodness we have such a great job here with excellent wages and facilities, along with opportunities to improve our skills," said Fajri.
 
Unlike the first batch graduation ceremony, this event included the participants' parents. Jafar Kadili, Fajri Kadili's father, expressed pride that his son works at Harita Nickel and has the chance to improve his skills.
"I am very proud that the company has given my child, who had no skills before, the chance to become a heavy equipment operator. I encouraged my child to work hard and be disciplined to make us proud," he said.
 
The second batch of the Pelita vocational program included 28 local employees from PT Halmahera Jaya Feronikel (HJF), a business unit of Harita Nickel, and lasted three months. Participants received classroom lessons and field practice under the guidance of experienced mentors. The graduation ceremony marked the end of the training, and those who were crew members will now become Overhead Crane operators

Harita Nickel Continues to Invest in South Halmahera Youth with Heavy Equipment Operation Training

<a href="https://tbpnickel.com/media/kabar-obi/highlight/kenal-nikel-lebih-dekat-definisi-sejarah-dan-manfaatnya" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Nickel</a> is a transition element with a mixture of iron and non-iron properties. It is highly conductive and, in addition to being very strong, is also malleable. As a result, there are many potential uses and various benefits of nickel to found in our daily lives.
<a href="https://nickelinstitute.org/en/nickel-applications/">Data</a> from nickelinstitute.org reveals that around 29 percent of all nickel supply is used for consumables and food processing, a further 25 percent is used in mobility and transportation, 14 percent supports the processing industry, 12 percent is utilized in construction, 12 percent is used in energy, and the remaining 8 percent is allocated to other uses.
But exactly how is this nickel used? Below are just some of the many benefits of nickel in daily life.

<h2>1. Kitchen Equipment and Electronics</h2>
Nickel is flexible, heat resistant, and will not disintegrate when cleaned. In addition, its silvery white appearance also makes it visually attractive. As a result, nickel is widely used in combination with other metals – such as stainless steel – in a range of kitchenware, cooking utensils, and even medical equipment.
In addition, nickel alloys are able to conduct electricity, can be easily magnetized, and are resistant to corrosion. This makes them an extremely useful material in the electronics industry.
<h2>2. Factories</h2>
Processed products such as fertilizers, plastics, and pharmaceuticals are produced in corrosive, gas-filled, and high-temperature environments. Therefore, nickel-alloyed metals are highly favored, because they provide solutions to these challenges.
<h2>3. Architecture and Construction</h2>
Nickel's rust-resistant and malleable properties are well-suited to a range of purposes, including architecture and construction.
For example, in infrastructure development projects, nickel-alloyed metals such as stainless steel are often used as load-bearing components in bridges. In addition, stainless steel is also used to make complementary road infrastructure such as barriers and handrails.
Stainless steel is also commonly utilized in commercial buildings as window frames, balcony supports, and building facades.
<h2>4. The Energy Sector&nbsp;</h2>
Nickel alloys are now also widely used in the energy sector, from oil and gas to power plants, and the new renewable energies industry.

<h3>a. Oil and Gas</h3>
In the oil and gas industry, materials with nickel alloys are widely used in piping components, valves, and vessels, etc. This is because nickel alloys are especially resistant to corrosion.
<h3>b. Power Plants</h3>
Power plants work by ‘cooking’ fuel to produce steam that will turn a turbine. Therefore, heat- and corrosion-resistant materials are needed to ensure the durability of components in boilers and heat exchangers.
<h3>c. New and Renewable Energy</h3>
Hydroelectric and wind power plants are often located at sea, which means corrosion poses a major challenge. Stainless steel and copper-nickel alloys are used to overcome this problem.
In solar power plants, materials with nickel alloys are used to capture and conduct heat that can be processed into electricity.
<h2>5. Batteries in Electric Vehicles</h2>
Another of the key benefits of nickel can be found in electric vehicles (EV), specifically as the cathodes in&nbsp;<a href="https://tbpnickel.com/id/media/kabar-obi/highlight/apa-sih-fungsi-nikel-pada-baterai-kendaraan-listrik" target="_blank" rel="noopener">EV batteries</a>.
Nickel is used for this purpose due to its ability to store comparatively more energy than other materials commonly used in batteries, such as lead. This makes it ideally suited to EV batteries, which require large amounts of energy.

<h2>Mining and Processing at Harita Nickel</h2>
Nickel is a raw material with many strategic applications, both now and in the future. At Harita Nickel, we not only mine nickel but also process nickel ore into derivative products.
Harita Nickel has a Rotary Kiln Electric Furnace (RKEF) <a href="https://tbpnickel.com/about-us/subsidiaries/smelter" target="_blank" rel="noopener">smelter</a> facility that is capable of processing high-grade nickel ore (saprolite) into ferronickel, which can later be processed into stainless steel.
In addition, Harita Nickel also has a <a href="https://tbpnickel.com/about-us/subsidiaries/refinery" target="_blank" rel="noopener">High-Pressure Acid Leaching (HPAL)</a> facility to process low-grade nickel ore (limonite) into Mixed Hydroxide Precipitate (MHP), nickel sulfate, and cobalt sulfate. These three products are the raw materials used to make cathodes in the batteries of electric vehicles.<script src="https://cdn.flmngr.com/widgets.js?apiKey=FLMNFLMN" data-ts="1784624045255"></script>

The Various Uses and Benefits of Nickel in Daily Life

The 79th Anniversary of the Republic of Indonesia is a momentum for all Harita employees to reflect on the company's Core Values in order to contribute in materializing the vision of an Advanced Indonesia in 2045.
Harita Nickel's Health, Safety & Environment (HSE) Director, Tonny Gultom, in his speech at the ceremony on August 17, 2024 conveyed the journey of Harita Nickel that stated as a mining company has now transformed into an integrated and sustainable nickel processing technology company.
Tonny said that from the seven pillars in this year's independence theme “Nusantara Baru, Indonesia Maju”, four of them are relevant to Harita Nickel's operational activities on Obi Island, namely economic growth, sustainability, green economy, and unity and hope.
Regarding economic growth, he explained, Harita Nickel through PT Halmahera Persada Lygend (HPL) and PT Halmahera Jaya Feronikel (HJF) continues to produce nickel processing materials, which are needed for the advancement of world civilization.
In terms of environmental sustainability, Harita Nickel's post-mining reclamation program has a large target of 30 hectares by this year. The company has also started an initiative named “Good Start from Obi” as an effort to reduce single-use plastic waste in its operational areas.
“This is an extraordinary achievement. Whereas about 10 years ago, we only focused on the nickel mining sector. However, today we are able to process nickel mining products, and even open up wider employment opportunities for local people in North Maluku,” he said.
According to Tonny, the company's success in carrying out the downstream mandate from the Indonesian government is due to the solid cooperation between all stakeholders. Especially the employees across various business units of Harita Nickel and its partners.
The key to that success, Tonny emphasized, is because every individual in Harita Nickel is convinced and believes in the company's Core Values and makes it a shared culture in their workplace, which are Humility, Achievement oriented, Respect for every individual, Integrity and Accountability.
“We can make all these achievements, inseparable from the role of every Insan Harita, who practiced all the Corporate Core Values in their daily work and contributed to Indonesia. Let's continue this good culture, and one Harita moving forward toward Golden Indonesia,” Tonny said, closing the ceremony.<img alt="Primus priyanto hut ri ke79 harita nickel" src="https://api.tbpnickel.com/storage/images/old/images/Primus-Priyanto-HUT-RI-Ke79-Harita-Nickel.jpg" title="Primus priyanto hut ri ke79 harita nickel"><figcaption>Primus Priyanto, Head of Mining Engineering at PT Trimegah Bangun Persada (TBP), presided over the flag-raising ceremony held at the PT TBP site.</figcaption>
In line, the Head of Mining Engineering of PT Trimegah Bangun Persada Tbk, Primus Priyanto, encouraged all Harita employees to consistently apply the company's core values in their daily work. According to him, this is an effort to realize the company's vision and mission in contributing to the nation.
“What can we contribute as Insan Harita in commemorating the Independence Day of the Republic of Indonesia, of course by applying our company values. As we move the company forward, it is our collective effort to contribute towards an advanced Indonesia,” he concluded.
For information, Harita Nickel through its business units operating on Obi Island held a ceremony to commemorate the 79th Anniversary of the Republic of Indonesia. In addition to being held on the ground, the ceremony was also held underwater around the company's operations by involving professional divers representing each business unit. This activity is to emphasize the company's commitment to sustainable operations.

79th Indonesian Independence Day, One Harita Moving Forward Towards Golden Indonesia

Harita Nickel has officially received ISO 14001:2015 and ISO 45001:2018 certifications through its business unit, PT Halmahera Jaya Feronikel (HJF). This achievement highlights the company's commitment to implementing best practices in the HARITA Nickel Integrated Management System (IMS), particularly in the Environmental Management System (EMS) and Occupational Health and Safety Management System (OHSMS).
This achievement indicates that the Health, Safety, and Environment (HSE) Integrated Management System (IMS) implemented across all HARITA Nickel business units has met the International Standards ISO14001:2015 and ISO45001:2018. This accomplishment by HJF also completes the four ISO certificates previously held by HARITA Nickel, each for PT Trimegah Bangun Persada (TBP) and PT Halmahera Persada Lygend (HPL) end of last year.

The certification process undertaken by HARITA Nickel involved a series of rigorous audits and in-depth evaluations of the management systems implemented. In this process, the company had to demonstrate compliance with the various requirements set by the ISO standards. The company's internal team worked in collaboration with world-class external auditors, SGS Indonesia, to ensure that all operational processes and procedures met or even exceeded the established standards.

Meanwhile, Herman Salam, Deputy Head of Electrical and Instrumental at PT HJF, described the preparations made by the company, “The process of meeting these international standards involved close coordination between the internal team and external auditors, as well as a thorough evaluation of every operational aspect. We have prepared well to face the challenges of implementing and maintaining this comprehensive management system. Moving forward, we are also committed to continuously improving efficiency, safety, and health in the workplace, and innovating in the application of technology and best practices that support the company's sustainable goals.”

ISO 14001:2015 is an international standard focusing on the Environmental Management System (EMS) that helps companies improve their environmental performance through a flexible and phased approach. Meanwhile, ISO 45001:2018 is an international standard for the Occupational Health and Safety Management System (OHSMS) that helps improve employee safety, reduce workplace risks, and create healthier and safer working conditions. Both of these standards will be evaluated annually to ensure the quality of their implementation is maintained and improved each year in line with sustainability principles.
