On a bright Sunday morning, employees from PT Halmahera Persada Lygend (HPL), a business unit of Harita Nickel, gathered at the Activity Center. They carried cooking equipment such as spatulas, woks, and electric pots, ready to participate in the inaugural event, “Obi Masterchef” competition organized by the company.
A total of 25 teams, each comprising three members, were set to compete in creating the best fried rice dishes. The participants were given the freedom to innovate and shows their unique culinary creativity.
Amid the excitement, "Obi Masterchef" provides employees, who usually engage in demanding fieldwork, a chance to relax and unleash their creativity.
One of the participants, Tamim Murah Ismail, shared that it was his first time joining a cooking competition. “Usually, I only cook for my family at home, but this time I wanted to try a new challenge. It’s exciting to compete with colleagues,” he said with a wide smile. Along with his two teammates, Tamim, also known as Kaka Ong, aimed to create a fried rice dish inspired by his mother’s recipe.
Elsewhere, a team from the Security department was busy preparing their ingredients. Wa Ode Misna, one of the members, expressed that this event provided an opportunity to bond with colleagues beyond work hours.
“We usually work in the field and rarely have opportunities for personal interaction. This competition is a perfect opportunity for that,” she said.
As the cooking began, the Activity Center's atmosphere became vibrant. The aroma of various dishes filled the air, captivating everyone present. Some participants crafted traditional fried rice, while others ventured into vegetarian variations with local ingredients. The competition truly tested the participant's creativity.
The judges, comprising the company’s chefs and management representatives, carefully evaluated each dish. After a rigorous assessment, the top three teams with the most unique concepts and flavors were announced.
The team from Security Department emerged as the first-place winner. Their innovative fusion fried rice, made using various ingredients provided by the organizers, impressed the judges.
“We never expected our team to win the competition,” Misna said on behalf of her team. “Initially, our intention was just to have fun and spend our day off productively,” she added.
Junaidi Arief, Superintendent HRGA of PT Halmahera Persada Lygend and the event organizer expressed his gratitude to the employees for their participation. “We hope that the Obi Masterchef competition can enhance our sense of community and collaboration at Obi site,” he stated.
Even after the competition ended, the solidarity among the participants remained strong. They savored each other’s dishes, sharing laughter and stories. This cooking competition not only fostered a productive work environment at Harita Nickel but also provided a space for employees to innovate while enhancing their connections.

Masterchef Obi: Enhancing Team Unity Through Culinary Competitions

Harita Nickel, an integrated nickel mining and processing technology company, organized a mangrove planting event along the coast of Soligi Village, Obi District, South Halmahera, on Saturday (July 27, 2024). The event, held in celebration of World Mangrove Day 2024, involved hundreds of students and mangrove care groups from the local village.
Harita Nickel acknowledges the critical role mangroves play in coastal sustainability, including ecosystem balance maintenance, shoreline protection against erosion, and providing habitats for diverse flora and fauna that offer economic benefits to the local communities.
Ifan Farianda, Community Development Manager at Harita Nickel, stated that this initiative is part of Harita's Community Development and Empowerment Program (PPM), which includes the Harita Teaching and Mangrove Rehabilitation and Conservation projects.
“We aim to enhance community awareness, particularly among the youth, regarding the critical importance of the mangrove ecosystem along the coast of Soligi Village,” Ifan explained.
He also emphasized that the involvement of students in this activity is a crucial part of efforts to inspire the younger generation to take an active role in environmental conservation.
“In the context of global climate change, the presence of mangroves is critical. Mangroves act as natural barriers against storms and waves and are also effective carbon sinks that help mitigate climate change,” Ifan added.
Madaisi La Siriali, the head of Soligi Village, welcomed the involvement of students from SMP 39 and SMA 35 South Halmahera, along with local youth, in the mangrove planting initiative. He acknowledged that the company’s efforts can enhance understanding and raise awareness among the younger generation about the importance of mangroves for the coastal ecosystem.
“We, as the village government, greatly appreciate the company’s initiative, particularly in involving junior and senior high school students in the mangrove planting activities along the coastline of Soligi Village,” he stated.
Meanwhile, Kasman La Jaani, a high school student who participated in the event, expressed his enthusiasm. “I am pleased to be part of this mangrove planting activity.&nbsp;It has provided me with a deeper understanding of the critical role mangroves play in our environment and our future,” he stated. 
<img alt="C1 hari mangrove sedunia soligi" src="https://api.tbpnickel.com/storage/images/old/images/C1_Hari Mangrove Sedunia SoligiA7403293_11zon.jpg" title="C1 hari mangrove sedunia soligi">
<figcaption>Students from SMP 39 and SMA 35 South Halmahera enthusiastically participated in the mangrove planting activity held by Harita Nickel on the coast of Soligi Village (27/07)</figcaption>

For reference, Soligi Village features a mangrove forest of 23 hectares, including 12.98 hectares of protected mangrove forest and 10.02 hectares of potential mangrove ecosystem area. The forest’s condition is currently critical due to local practices of harvesting mangrove roots for firewood. 
Since 2021, Harita Nickel has successfully planted 67,691 mangrove seedlings across 23.04 hectares at four sites in South Halmahera Regency. These sites include Soligi Village in Obi District, Awango and Belang-Belang Villages in Bacan District, and Guruapin Village in Kayoa District. The company has collaborated with various stakeholders, including academic institutions, local government agencies, and community organizations.
 
This recent mangrove planting initiative underscores Harita Nickel’s ongoing commitment to environmental stewardship within its operational areas. The restoration of mangrove forests in Soligi Village is anticipated to deliver both ecological and economic benefits. Furthermore, this project aims to enhance collaboration between the company, government, and local communities in support of environmental conservation efforts

World Mangrove Day: Harita Nickel Encourages Students to Plant Mangroves along the Coast of Soligi

Harita Nickel conducted a comprehensive chemical spill response drill at PT Halmahera Persada Lygend (HPL) Acid Plant on Saturday, July 20, 2024. This initiative was aimed at enhancing emergency preparedness and reinforcing environmental safety protocols. This exercise simulates a sulfuric acid (H2SO4) chemical spill scenario, which requires a rapid and effective response to mitigate potential impacts on both worker safety and environmental sustainability.
The drill involved full participation of the emergency response team, including the Health, Safety, and Environment (HSE) department, Emergency Response Team (ERT), Production team, and other key personnels responsible for the efficient execution of emergency procedures. Through this simulation, the company aims to enhance the team’s understanding and practical skills in managing emergency situations. The drill also tested the readiness of equipments and chemical spill response systems in accordance with established Standard Operating Procedures (SOPs).
The Acid Plant at HPL is a critical facility in the nickel refinery, where sulfuric acid is a routine component of daily operations, making this training particularly crucial.
According to Indra Maizar, the Environmental Superintendent at Harita Nickel, the drill not only enhances technical preparedness but also cultivates a collective awareness of workplace safety and environmental protection.
"Our goal is to ensure that every team member is fully informed and ready to respond effectively in the event of a chemical spill," he remarked.
Furthermore, Indra explained that the initial step in the drill of a chemical spill is to ensure the safety of oneself and colleagues by distancing them from the affected area.
“The primary focus is to secure the area and stop the primary source of the spill to prevent further spread of the chemicals. Following this, the emergency response team will take appropriate actions, including recovering the contaminated area, monitoring impacted water bodies, and assessing any potentially impacted drainage systems,” he added.
Indra also noted that this drill is part of the company’s broader efforts to adhere to ISO certifications and maintain high standards. Additionally, the exercise serves as an evaluation of the current emergency response procedures.
Feedback from this simulation will assist Harita Nickel in continuously improving its emergency response system. Harita Nickel reaffirms its commitment to enhancing safety and environmental sustainability through ongoing programs and future initiatives.

Boosting Emergency Preparedness, Harita Nickel Conducts Chemical Spill Response Drill

Harita Nickel continues to strengthen its commitment to improving the quality of local human resources in its operational areas through training and certification of Operator License (SIO) for 30 participants of the second batch PELITA (Enhancement of Youth Skills and Abilities) program on Friday, July 12, 2024. This initiative not only meets the company’s operational requirements for legal compliance in heavy equipment operation, specifically overhead cranes, but also represents a strategic investment in the long-term professional development of these participants.
As part of this initiative, Harita Nickel collaborates with a certified Occupational Health and Safety Service Company (PJK) recognized by the Indonesian Ministry of Manpower (Kemnaker RI). The training spans six days, from July 7 to 12, covering a wide range of topics, including technical briefings, safety regulations for lifting equipment, core subjects on overhead cranes, and concludes with a theoretical exam.
 
Community Development Superintendent at Harita Nickel, Panji Setyadi, stated, “The Operator License (SIO) certification facilitated by the company is part of our ongoing commitment to ensure that all PELITA participants are qualified and officially licensed to operate heavy equipment, in this case, overhead cranes.”
 
Panji further explained that this certification not only meets the company’s operational needs but also adds value to the participants by enhancing their career development.
 
Meanwhile, Jabarudin Hi Hafiz, a PELITA participant from Bokimiake Village, West Kayoa District, South Halmahera Regency, expressed his gratitude to the company for organizing the PELITA training program and facilitating their acquisition of SIO. According to Jabarudin, this program is highly beneficial for local youth who lack skills in operating heavy equipment but aspire to build a career as operators within the company.
 
“The PELITA program has paved the way for us to become operators in the company and provides better opportunities to contribute more in the workplace. As local youth of South Halmahera, we are grateful to the company for the support and opportunities given to develop our skills,” said Jabarudin.
 
The PELITA program itself is one of Harita Nickel’s Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) initiatives focusing on developing skills and abilities among local youth on Obi Island and South Halmahera. The first batch of PELITA, held in 2023, was successful with 14 participants, all of whom are now employed as wheel loader operators in the company. As for the second batch, 30 PELITA participants are receiving classroom and field training to prepare them as skilled and certified overhead crane operators.

Harita Nickel Provides Training and Operator License (SIO) for Local Youths

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.

Tonny Gultom, Director of Health, Safety, and Environment (HSE) at HARITA Nickel, stated that this achievement is concrete evidence of the company's commitment to adopting the best international standards in systematically managing environmental responsibilities and implementing OHSMS in sustainable operational activities.

“HARITA Nickel is always committed to running operations that are not only efficient and productive but also responsible towards the environment and employee safety. This certification is the result of the dedication and hard work of the HARITA personnel who have ensured that all processes, procedures, and implementations of Environmental and OHS management practices meet international standards,” he said.

He added that HARITA Nickel will continue to innovate and improve its management practices to achieve sustainable operational excellence. “We are committed to continuously developing the integration of the environment into business processes with a recycling perspective. Likewise, with the planned, measured, and integrated enhancement of OHS protection effectiveness,” Tonny explained.
<img alt="Halmahera jaya feronike raih sertifikasi iso 14001 dan 45001 2" src="https://api.tbpnickel.com/storage/images/old/images/Halmahera-Jaya-Feronike-Raih-Sertifikasi-ISO-14001-dan-45001-2.jpg"> 
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.

Harita Nickel, a nickel mining and processing company on Obi Island, showed its care to the community by hosting a blood donation drive. Activities carried out in honor of World Blood Donor Day were held in two locations, namely the Obi Site on Saturday, June 29 and the Jakarta head office will be on Monday, July 29, 2024.
Employees from all Harita Nickel business units and contractors actively participated in the blood donation. From the Obi Site,&nbsp; around 150 employees and contractors took part in the humanitarian action carried out at the PT Halmahera Persada Lygend (HPL) clinic.
 

 Roykedona Lisa Trixie, Head of the Blood Donation Committee and Site Doctor at Harita Nickel expressed her appreciation for the employees' enthusiastic participation. "We are very pleased with the high level of enthusiasm and participation from our employees in this blood donation event. This not only reflects the company's contribution to the surrounding community but also demonstrates the humanitarian values we uphold at Harita Nickel," she said.
This blood donation drive supports Harita Nickel’s commitment to public health. The blood collected from this drive in the Obi Site will be given to Labuha Regional General Hospital (Rumah Sakit Umum Daerah or RSUD) to help meet the hospital's blood supply needs.
“We hope to contribute to public health and help meet RSUD Labuha’s blood supply needs. Each donation today is a beacon of hope for those in need,” Roykedona added.
The organizing committee strictly followed health and safety procedures. Participants had health screenings to verify their eligibility, and the medical team ensured the blood collection was sterile and safe.
Nurul Afiah, Head of the Blood Transfusion Unit at RSUD Labuha, thanked the Harita Nickel employees who donated blood. "The employees' participation shows their strong awareness and social concern. We hope events like this can be held regularly," she said.
Furthermore, Nurul explained several benefits of blood donation for donors. “For donors, regular blood donation can help maintain heart health and renew blood cells in the body. It also provides emotional satisfaction by helping and benefiting others,” she explained.
Fajar Aprianto from the HSE department of PT Megah Surya Pertiwi (MSP) expressed satisfaction with the event. "As a Harita Nickel employee, I'm glad to join this blood donation drive. It helps others and promotes personal well-being," he said. Fajar, who has donated blood four times while working at Harita Nickel, expressed his willingness to join similar activities if the company holds them again in the future.
 
Harita Nickel regularly hosts social and humanitarian activities as part of its Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR). Besides blood drives, the company engages in community empowerment programs in education, health, economy, infrastructure, and socio-cultural sectors. Harita Nickel is dedicated to making a positive impact on the local communities and environment where it operates.

Caring For Community, Harita Nickel Hosts Blood Donation Drive   

The usually bustling atmosphere of the Harita Nickel site on Obi Island became quiet and solemn that early morning. The only sound echoed is the sound of takbir from the loudspeakers of mosques scattered across the employee housing complexes. A number of employees, donning koko shirts, sarongs, and caps, flocked to the mosque to perform Eid al-Adha prayers. 
That morning, Monday, June 17, 2024, all Muslims celebrated Eid al-Adha 1445 H, including the Insan Harita employees on site. Despite being away from their families, they were able to celebrate the holiday together in a familial atmosphere.
 
Sarifuddin Usman, an employee of PT Megah Surya Pertiwi, one of Harita Nickel's business units that operates a high-grade nickel processing plant, shares his experience. Having worked at PT MSP for nine years, he has celebrated Eid al-Adha on the company's premises six times. While he sometimes feels saddened by not being able to gather with his family, he also expresses happiness in being able to celebrate the holiday with his coworkers on site.
 
“It's a bummer I often have to spend Eid away from the family at work, but I'm grateful the workplace feels like a second home. Even away from my loved ones, the crew here makes the Eid feel just as special.
 
Likewise, Tamim Murrah Ismail, Foreman Weighbridge of PT Halmahera Persada Lygend (HPL), who has celebrated Eid al-Adha on site four times in six years of working at Harita Nickel. 
 
"It's called love and work," Tamim says, laughing. "Despite being away from my family, the celebrations here always feel special. My coworkers feel like a second family to me," he continues.
 
Tamim and Sarifuddin's experience celebrating Eid al-Adha in the company environment not only reflects the cohesiveness between employees, but also strengthens the values of togetherness that exist at Harita Nickel.
 
Meanwhile, after the Eid prayer, the festivities continued with sacrificial animal slaughtering. A number of business units carried out sacrificial animal slaughtering in their operational areas. The animals were then distributed to the community and employees as a form of direct contribution in strengthening social ties and providing benefits to the local community.
 
This year, MSP and PT Trimegah Bangun Persada (TBP) were each recorded as having distributed 4 goats, HPL 3 goats and a cow, while PT Halmahera Jaya Feronikel (HJF) sacrificed a cow.

Familiarity in Kinship, Harita Nickel Employees Celebrate Eid al-Adha at Site Obi

PT Trimegah Bangun Persada (TBP) Tbk, also known as Harita Nickel, held a tree planting event on Wednesday, June 5, 2024, to commemorate World Environment Day. The event, titled “A Journey to a Greener Future,” was attended by 50 employees from various departments and contractor representatives.
Irgi Ahmad Sahresi, Chairman of the World Environment Day Committee, said the tree planting event was held in a ex mining area within the company's operations. The goal is to restore the land to its original condition.
“Over 150 tree seedlings were planted across this 0.5&nbsp;hectare plot, with various species including jabon merah (Neolamarckia macrophylla), Australian pine (Casuarina equisetifolia), eucalyptus, and several local trees. These species were selected for their suitability to the soil conditions of the ex mining area,” he explained.
Irgi further elaborated that World Environment Day was celebrated with various other activities in addition to tree planting. These began with an environmental discussion on May 25 and continued with cleanliness and creativity competitions among employee dormitories.
 
"These efforts aim to raise employee awareness about the importance of environmental care. This initiative is part of our ongoing commitment to sustainability, not just a one-time event," he emphasized.
 
For World Environment Day 2024, Harita Nickel and its business units on Obi Island organized various activities. Along with PT Trimegah Bangun Persada, other units like PT Halmahera Persada Lygend and PT Halmahera Jaya Feronikel held similar events. These activities involved employees, local students, and university experts, showcasing the company's commitment to environmental sustainability.

Harita Nickel Preserves the Environment with Tree Planting

Harita Nickel organized an Enviro Talk to commemorate World Environment Day 2024. The discussion, themed “Fighting Plastics One Bag at a Time,” addressed the issue of plastic waste within the company's operational areas and explored concrete steps for its management.&nbsp;
The Enviro Talk was held on Saturday, June 8, 2024, at the cinema of PT Halmahera Persada Lygend, a Harita Nickel business unit operating a nickel limonite processing and refining plant using High Pressure Acid Leaching (HPAL) technology. The event was attended by company management, academics, and hundreds of employees from various Harita Nickel business units.
The first speaker, Mochamad Candra Wirawan Arief, PhD, a lecturer from the Faculty of Fisheries and Marine Sciences at Universitas Padjajaran, explained the environmental hazards of plastic waste and management strategies. He highlighted that the increasing use of single-use plastics has significantly contributed to global plastic waste.
He also emphasized the need for collaboration and individual responsibility in environmental conservation, suggesting that reducing single-use plastics, such as using tote bags for shopping, could have a substantial impact if adopted collectively.
“For instance, using a tote bag when shopping. While the impact of a single individual may seem minimal, the collective adoption of this practice by all Insan Harita will yield significant benefits,” he explained, commending Harita personnel’s initiative to reduce plastic waste through the #AwalBaikdariObi movement.

Meanwhile, Iwan Syahroni, Deputy Department Head of HSE at Harita Nickel, outlined the company’s environmental management in each and every plan and operation of the company. Participants were informed about the company's initiatives to preserve the environment on Obi Island, which include monitoring water, air, and biodiversity quality, managing hazardous waste, reclamation and re-vegetation, and coral reef restoration. He also highlighted a number of environmental services such as artificial reef cubes from nickel slag and planting mangrove outside the company’s operational area.
“Our responsibility is to preserve the environment and ensure that our operational activities do not harm existing ecosystems,” Iwan stated.
The interactive Enviro Talk, which lasted approximately two hours, saw enthusiastic participation. Attendees were engaged and promptly asked questions during the Q&A session, demonstrating increased awareness of environmental issues and a commitment to taking concrete actions.
“This event provided valuable insights into waste management, particularly regarding the plastic waste we frequently use. I am now more aware of the importance of reducing single-use plastics and recognize that collective small actions can make significant differences,” said Lusty Rahmatina from the Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) Department.
