INDOFOOD AGRI RESOURCES LTD
ANNUAL REPORT 2014
Our products are fortified with minerals and vitamins as
required by legislation. They are also halal
-
certified. Nutritional
value is enhanced for certain products as an added health
benefit to customers, and for product differentiation. Our
cooking oils are bottled using recyclable packaging materials,
in compliance with Indonesia’s policy on Extended Producer
Responsibility (EPR). Our refineries are certified to ISO 9001
standards.
Our
Safe and Traceable Products
Programme aims to ensure that
all our products are safe for human consumption. During the
year, we implemented a food safety management system at the
Tanjung Priok refinery that complied with FSSC 22000:2010
requirements. We also appointed a Quality Assurance team to
enforce food safety standards and assess the Group’s quality
control systems, including those of our suppliers.
People and Communities
Material Issue:
Occupational Health and Safety
Agriculture, refining and milling operations are potentially
dangerous vocations with risk of injury or accidents relating
to the plantation environment, machineries and equipment,
chemicals, confined spaces and even operator errors.
Providing a safe and healthy working environment is our
primary commitment to the employees.
Material Issue:
Human rights
As an agribusiness, there is constant pressure to demonstrate
how human rights are respected and upheld. IndoAgri
is committed to dealing fairly and transparently with all
employees and business partners. The management of risks
relating to diversity, employee retention, labour conditions,
freedom of association, child labour and forced labour is core
to this effort. In the plantations, which are often in remote
areas, we provide a range of essential amenities and facilities
to cater to the needs and comfort of our employees.
Material Issue:
Land rights
Land ownership is a deeply social, political, historical and
religious issue in the agricultural industry. We uphold the
principle of Free, Prior and Informed Consent (FPIC) with
regards to land purchases from local villages, and it is
important to IndoAgri that the villagers, in turn, are able to
support their own livelihood and provide for themselves.
As a fair and responsible employer, we aim to engage our people
through meaningful careers. Direct and indirect employment
opportunities are provided to local residents and the plasma
community through a wide range of jobs. We empower people
through training and talent development for personal and
professional growth, and maintain open lines of communication
at all levels of our workforce.
We pay at least the minimum wages according to local
regulations and ensure that our reward policies are competitive.
All IndoAgri staff are enrolled under Badan Penyelenggara
Jaminan Sosial (BPJS, formerly known as Jamsostek), a
pension plan set up by the government, whereby the Group
and the employee respectively contributes 3.7% and 2.0% of
the monthly basic salary. Retiring employees enjoy a severance
package and other benefits set out by BPJS.
We support the development of agronomy, agriculture and
engineering skills through four training facilities. We invest in
the training of professional skills suited to specific roles and
