The 2026 National Occupational Health and Safety (OHS) Month serves as a strategic momentum for Harita Nickel to reaffirm its collective commitment to strengthening a safety culture founded on connectivity and mutual responsibility. In alignment with the national theme, “Building a Professional, Reliable, and Collaborative National OHS Management Ecosystem,” Harita Nickel positions OHS not merely as a system, but as an integrated ecosystem embedded in the daily operations of all Insan Harita.
This commitment was reflected in the opening series of BK3N activities held across Harita Nickel’s operational areas on Obi Island, South Halmahera. The opening ceremony marked a unified declaration of commitment involving business units, management, and business partners, emphasizing that safety is a shared responsibility that must be implemented comprehensively and consistently.
<img style="display: block; margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;" src="https://api.tbpnickel.com/storage/images/base64/page_1769993987_JlFGILezSA.jpeg" width="1080" height="720">
Deputy Technical Support of PT Obi Sinar Timur (OST), Amirrudin, stated that the principle of “Satu Harita, Saling Menjaga” extends beyond a tagline and must be internalized as a core value in every work activity. Safety, he noted, transcends organizational structures, functions, and roles, and is the responsibility of every individual as part of a single organization.
“Operational activities inherently involve potential hazards; however, incidents are preventable. Consistent adherence to procedures, compliance with OHS standards, and proactive care through mutual reminders are fundamental to establishing a safe working environment,” he explained.
He further emphasized that while management remains committed to providing adequate safety systems, procedures, training, and facilities, effective implementation is contingent upon the active participation and accountability of all Insan Harita.
<img style="display: block; margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;" src="https://api.tbpnickel.com/storage/images/base64/page_1769993987_NqQlq1zq7l.jpeg">
In line with this, Primus Priyanto, Head of Mining Engineering at PT Trimegah Bangun Persada Tbk, underscored the importance of developing a professional, reliable, and collaborative OHS ecosystem. He noted that professionalism in OHS begins with a thorough understanding of occupational risks and is reinforced through consistent application of risk controls and strict compliance with work procedures.
“Professional conduct is demonstrated through consistency in adhering to work procedures and applying risk control measures,” Primus stated.
He added that the reliability of the OHS system must be continuously strengthened through the enhancement of human resource competencies and the reinforcement of the Mining Safety Management System (SMKP). This includes strengthening safety leadership, developing supervisory capabilities, and cultivating a constructive feedback culture that addresses unsafe actions or conditions as a form of care rather than blame.
“Feedback and corrective reminders should be viewed as an expression of concern for collective safety,” he emphasized.
Furthermore, Primus highlighted collaboration as a critical enabler of an effective OHS ecosystem. Cross-departmental involvement in setting OHS objectives, targets, and programs, supported by regular joint evaluations, is essential to ensure alignment and sustainability of OHS implementation across all operational areas.

Behind its contribution to national development and economic growth, the mining industry carries inherently high occupational risks. Every worker in mining operations faces real hazards on a daily basis—from extreme working environments and the use of heavy machinery to exposure to materials that may be harmful to health.
Occupational Health and Safety (OHS) serves as the foundation for managing these risks and preventing workplace accidents and health-related incidents. Through an effective management system, potential hazards can be controlled — which is why OHS plays a crucial role in mining operations.
In this article, we will explore what OHS is, how it is applied within the mining industry, and how Harita Nickel integrates OHS as part of its identity and work culture across all operational lines.
<h2 dir="ltr" style="text-align: justify;">What is OHS?</h2>
OHS, which is known in Indonesia as K3 (Keselamatan dan Kesehatan Kerja), means Occupational Health and Safety in English. This term encompasses all policies, procedures, and efforts to protect workers from physical and psychological dangers, as well as from hazardous work environments.
In Indonesia, the legal basis for OHS implementation includes:
<ul style="text-align: justify;">
<li dir="ltr" aria-level="1">
Law Number 1 of 1970 concerning Occupational Safety, which outlines employer and employee obligations in ensuring workplace safety.
</li>
<li dir="ltr" aria-level="1">
Government Regulation Number 50 of 2012 concerning the Occupational Health and Safety Management System (SMK3).
</li>
<li dir="ltr" aria-level="1">
Minister of Energy and Mineral Resources Regulation Number 26 of 2018 concerning Good Mining Engineering Practices, which specifically regulates mining safety, occupational health, and environmental management.
</li>
</ul>
With these legal foundations, OHS is not merely a moral obligation or internal policy — it is a mandatory requirement that ensures companies maintain a safe and healthy working environment.
<h2 dir="ltr" style="text-align: justify;">Why is OHS Essential in the Mining Industry?</h2>
The mining industry has unique workplace characteristics, including heavy machinery use, remote operational areas, and rapidly changing geological and weather conditions. Several reasons make OHS critically important in this sector:
<ul style="text-align: justify;">
<li dir="ltr" aria-level="1">
Workers as main assets: Mining workers are at the frontline of operations and are key contributors to industrial success. Their safety and health must therefore be a top priority.
</li>
<li dir="ltr" aria-level="1">
High levels of hazards and risks: Activities such as mining, blasting, hauling, and mineral processing carry significant risks of accidents and occupational illnesses if not properly managed.
</li>
<li dir="ltr" aria-level="1">
Interaction between humans, equipment, and technology: Mining relies heavily on machinery and technological systems, yet human involvement remains decisive. This interaction can create safety risks if not carefully controlled.
</li>
<li dir="ltr" aria-level="1">
Operational sustainability: Modern mining companies are evaluated not only on production output, but also on how safely and responsibly they operate.
</li>
<li dir="ltr" aria-level="1">
Building a strong safety culture: Consistent implementation of OHS fosters a disciplined, collaborative, and caring work culture that supports long-term productivity and sustainability.
</li>
</ul>
<h2 dir="ltr" style="text-align: justify;">Implementation of OHS at Harita Nickel</h2>
Harita Nickel applies Occupational Health and Safety (OHS) as an integral part of all operational activities. This commitment is demonstrated through structured management systems, safety culture reinforcement, and strategic collaboration. Examples include:
a. International Management System Certifications
Harita Nickel has obtained ISO 14001:2015 and ISO 45001:2018 certifications, confirming that its environmental and occupational health and safety management systems meet international standards. This reflects the company's commitment to implementing best practices within its Integrated Management System.
b. Training and Capacity Building
Capacity building related to OHS is a priority at Harita Nickel, starting from safety induction to specialized internal training and competency development based on job functions. Knowledge and awareness of OHS are essential foundations for creating a strong safety culture. One example includes seminars and discussion forums conducted in collaboration with the University of Indonesia.
c. Strengthening Commitment and Awareness
Harita Nickel runs programs aimed at reinforcing corporate OHS commitment and increasing safety awareness across all business units. These efforts include hazard identification, routine inspections, safety standard implementation, and safety campaigns. The 2025 National OHS Month served as a momentum to disseminate safety messages widely and emphasize collective responsibility across the organization.
d. Strategic Collaboration and Continuous Improvement
Harita Nickel continuously collaborates with academic institutions to enhance scientific and technical approaches to OHS. In 2025, the company conducted a large-scale emergency response drill in collaboration with the Disaster Risk Reduction Center (DRRC) of the University of Indonesia, involving management teams, emergency units, employees, and government representatives.
e. Strengthening the Culture of “Safety is Everyone’s Role”
In daily operations, Harita Nickel emphasizes that OHS is not solely the responsibility of the Health, Safety &amp; Environment (HSE) function, but of every individual. OHS is embedded as a core company value aligned with the spirit of “Satu Harita, Saling Menjaga.” Practices such as reporting potential hazards, proper use of PPE, and self-inspection are part of daily work routines aligned with the philosophy that “working safely means going home safely.”
The implementation of OHS in the mining industry is not merely about regulatory compliance, but also about upholding human values, protecting lives, and ensuring operational continuity. Harita Nickel demonstrates that through a comprehensive approach ranging from international standards to daily work culture, Occupational Health and Safety can be embedded into the core values of a company.

Harita Nickel once again participated in the Grand Summit UI SDGs 2025, the closing event of the UI SDGs Summit series organized by the Student Executive Board of the University of Indonesia. In this forum, Harita Nickel's Executive Vice President for Environmental Affairs, Iwan Syahroni, explained the company's approach to implementing responsible integrated nickel mining and processing practices.
Previously, Harita Nickel also contributed technical expertise to a workshop session for an essay competition themed "Zero Waste for a Sustainable Future." This involvement reflects the company's commitment to sharing scientific perspectives on environmental issues with the younger generation.
In his presentation, Iwan provided a comprehensive overview of Harita Nickel's operations on Obi Island, which are based on the principles of responsible mining. "Harita Nickel is committed to integrating environmental management, energy efficiency, occupational safety, and social responsibility into our entire nickel mining and processing value chain," he said.
Iwan discussed Harita Nickel's integrated operational process on Obi Island, starting from ferronickel processing using Rotary Kiln Electric Furnace (RKEF) technology to Mixed Hydroxide Precipitate (MHP) processing using High Pressure Acid Leaching (HPAL). This explanation provides context on the role of integrated operations in supporting the stainless steel and electric vehicle battery supply chains, as well as driving the global energy transition agenda.
Innovation in byproducts management
The main highlight of this session was the company's strategy in managing processing byproducts so that they can be reused. Iwan explained that Harita Nickel processes nickel slag from the RKEF smelter process into value-added materials.
"We utilize nickel slag for various purposes, from making reef cubes for coral reef growth media and construction materials to soil conditioners for post-mining reclamation," he added.
In addition, byproducts from the HPAL refinery process are managed through the Dry Stack Tailing Facility (DSTF). This facility manages byproducts in the form of dry cake (solid/dry), rather than slurry (liquid), which are then placed in a special placement area that is safe and can be rehabilitated back into green land.
Closing the session, Iwan emphasized the land rehabilitation and biodiversity conservation strategies carried out through scientific approaches and academic collaboration. Harita Nickel's participation in this forum is expected to shape an objective public perception that Indonesia's nickel industry can be managed transparently, based on science, and contribute positively to national and global development.

Kawasi, December 21, 2025 – The New Settlement of Kawasi Village on Obi Island became the site for the dedication and inauguration of three facilities of the Maluku Protestant Church (GPM) on Sunday, 21 December 2025. The facilities include the Imanuel Church building, the pastor’s house, and a multipurpose hall. The event reflected strong collaboration between the church, Harita Nickel, the local government, and the community to strengthen congregational life and promote diversity in South Halmahera.
The Immanuel Church Building covers an area of 822 square meters. More than a place of worship, the church is expected to serve as a center for community development and social interaction, providing long-term benefits for the congregation and the people of Kawasi Village.

He also expressed hope that Immanuel Church would function not only as a place of worship, but also as a space for social interaction and character building that positively impacts the surrounding community.
“On behalf of the Government of South Halmahera Regency, I congratulate the congregation on the inauguration of Immanuel Church. May the pastors, church leaders, and all members of the congregation continue to strengthen their faith and work together to build a harmonious South Halmahera,” he added.
Meanwhile, Vice General Secretary of the GPM Synod, Rev. M. Takaria, stated that the dedication and inauguration serve as an important moment for the congregation to continue growing amid today’s challenges. He highlighted the importance of unity, solidarity, and fellowship among church members, as well as the role of the church in supporting gospel ministry and community development, especially for the younger generation.
“This moment strengthens partnerships that support the congregation and promotes harmony across religious and ethnic groups as a foundation for peaceful social life on Obi Island,” said Rev. M. Takaria.

Harita Nickel held a year-end prayer and reflection session at the close of 2025, bringing together Insan Harita from various units and operational areas. The gathering served as a collective moment to close the year while reaffirming the company’s commitment to fostering a safe and caring work environment.
In a solemn atmosphere, Insan Harita from across departments and business units came together to offer prayers as an expression of gratitude for the guidance and protection experienced throughout the year. The moment also provided space to pause, reflect on the journey undertaken, and nurture shared hopes that the steps ahead will be taken with greater mindfulness, mutual care, and responsibility.
Executive Business Control of Harita Nickel, Topan Prasetyo, noted that 2025 brought valuable lessons for everyone within the organization. “We all felt that 2025 was not an easy year. Through the processes we went through together, we learned that achievement is not measured solely by outcomes, but also by how we support and look out for one another,” he said.
According to Topan, the theme “Satu Harita, Saling Menjaga” serves as an important reminder amid daily work demands and operational pressures. “Through this prayer and reflection session, we took a moment to be grateful for what we have been through, while also offering our hopes that moving forward we are granted safety, good health, and an increasingly safe and caring work environment,” he added.
Echoing this sentiment, Deputy Department Head of Technical Support at Harita Nickel, Agung Aribowo, emphasized that day-to-day operations, particularly in the field, require constant vigilance and shared responsibility. “In our daily activities, we are often faced with situations that demand resilience, caution, and care, whether related to the environment, social aspects, or occupational health and safety,” he explained.
He further added that Harita Nickel’s strength lies in simple practices carried out consistently. “Care demonstrated through small actions, such as reminding and looking out for one another, reflects the strong sense of togetherness we continue to build as one big family,” he said.
The theme “Satu Harita, Saling Menjaga” became the common thread throughout the event. The presence of management representatives, department and business unit leaders, as well as Insan Harita from various operational areas, reinforced the spirit of unity and shared commitment.
Through this year-end prayer and reflection session, Harita Nickel reaffirmed its commitment to welcoming 2026 with a spirit of collaboration, care, and shared responsibility, ensuring that every work process is carried out with full awareness to protect one another and grow together.
