Safety Health & Security

KPC commits to create a safe and convenient work environment for all employees, guests,
contractors and anyone working, interacting and stationed within the operational areas of
KPC. We ensure that our slogan and target in achieving occupational safety and health are
tightly implemented in KPC’s working culture.

Managing occupational safety and health is one of KPC’s main priorities. We always ensure the
safety and health aspects of our employees, contractors and the local people as well as everyone who
works together with us in order to achieve zero accident target during all activities in all our
operational areas. In making continuous implementation and improvements in occupational safety
and health management system, KPC adopts both national and international standards and guidelines,
including OHSAS 18000 as well as occupational safety and health rules and regulations issued by
Indonesian Ministry of Manpower.
Implementation of Good Mining Practice in Occupational Safety and Health
We adopt good mining practice principles which provide us with a framework on achieving zero
accident target in KPC. The aspect of occupational safety and health has always been an integral part
that we consider when designing and planning the mine as well as conducting daily operational
activities. We also regularly give intensive trainings related to this aspect. Occupational Safety and
Health has to be an important part of employees’ work culture and ethics.
Rights and Obligations
We require all Company’s people to comply with the applicable Laws as well as Government
Regulations concerning occupational safety and health. Everyone in the Management team is obliged
to inform all employees regarding the Occupational Safety and Health (OHS) Regulations and
Procedures as well as the Standard Operating Procedure (SOP) in order to help the Company in
running all activities efficiently according to the established rules. Every violation of OHS
regulations will be considered as a serious violation against the Company and sanction will be given
based on Golden Rules and Disciplinary Act Guidelines.
Personal Protective Equipment (PPE)
Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) provides protection to all employees when doing their jobs.
PPEs provided by KPC are selected according to OHS standards. Health equipments that are also
provided for employees have to be properly used and looked after, not misused.
Health Service
KPC provides health clinics that can be accessed by employees and their family living around our
operational area. We treat our employees fairly and equally in terms of service and health benefit.
KPC’s Golden Rules of Occupational Safety and Health
We develop and implement OHS rules in order to maintain safety and health for all KPC’s
employees. We have identified 11 types of work that possess fatal risks. Therefore, we have
reviewed our work standards, guidelines and audit criteria as well as provide trainings according to
OHSAS 18001 and developed Golden Rules which is considered as occupational safety standard.
Occupational Safety, Health, and Environment (HSE) Management System
KPC adopts HSE Prima Nirbhaya system in managing issues related to occupational safety, health,
and environment. This system applies PDCA principles (Plan, Do, Check, Action/PDCA) which are
carried out on an ongoing basis. Our implemented system is consistent with standards of ISO 14001
and OHSAS 18001. KPC pays much attention to our employees’ health. We always conduct actions
that prevent or stop the spread of any diseases which are caused by both work environment and
employees’ lifestyle. We monitor potential risks related to health in workplaces, such as noise, dust,
lighting, vents, heat pressure, poisonous gas and heavy equipment vibration as well as conduct
healthy lifestyle programs.
OHS Training for Employees
We hold various trainings in order to create a safe and healthy working condition and environment.
Through these trainings we expect to increase our employees’ awareness in safety and health.
OHS Training for Employees’ Spouses
KPC believes that employees’ occupational safety and health is not only a result of supportive work
environment, but also employees’ spouses. Therefore, KPC always involves employees’ spouses to
support better safety and health. We hope that the employees’ spouses are able to understand their
husbands’ work condition and support them fully, thus, employees’ health can be improved.

Another way to show our care for our employees’ health, we conducted Awareness Program and
hold special classes on Prevention of HIV/AIDS in our workplace to all the KPC employees and
contractors. Various education programs on HIV/AIDS are focusing on comprehensive knowledge,

areas. We did several improvements in emergency response.
Safety Campaign Through Radio Broadcast

campaign on the importance of occupational safety and health. The radio that was founded by one of
KPC’s employees helped us in informing the importance of safety behaviors as well as
communicating several interesting tips on healthy lifestyle.
Occupational Safety and Health Performance
In order to see the effectiveness of our occupational safety and health efforts, we evaluate our OHS
performance annually. This evaluation is conducted by observing the Lost Time Injury Frequency
Rate (LTIFR) and Total Recordable Incident Frequency Rate (TRIFR). Since 2009, LTIFR has kept
decreasing. We will still conduct reviews and make improvements on our safety and health system,
procedures as well as program implementation in order to improve our OHS quality.
Safety Audit
We conduct several activities, including safety audit and behavioral observation program, to make
our occupational safety program complete. These two programs are ones that can support KPC’s
success and effectiveness in implementing OHS.
OHS Audit
In order to ensure that safety programs running well, we conduct weekly safety audit that was
performed 4 times a week.
Auditor Training
Before conducting OHS audit, we select competent auditors with the purpose to get proper result of
OHS audit that well represents the real OHS condition in our company. In order to achieve our
purpose, we first provide information on audit system implemented in KPC to our auditor candidates.
They will then join an internship for 4-6 months to learn about OHS documents, audit techniques and
conducting audit. They are also given a chance to audit their own departments by suggesting 3
improvement which can be made and presenting them to each General Manager of the related
division and to HSES General Manager.
Behavioral Observation Program (PRINASA)
n addition to audit, behavioral observation program is one of our effort effort to prevent fatal
incidents (Fatality Prevention Elements – FPE). This program is organized by the Management team
and OHS professionals in order to decrease the number of fatalities and incidents which can cause
loss of working hours. Since 2009, we have targeted a minimal FPE percentage of 60%.
Incidents Management
If an accident occurs, the first thing that employees should do is reporting the incident to each
supervisor. Supervisors are then to also report every incident happening in the area of their
responsibility. Safety officers are required to gather data to help officers from benefit section can
submit a report to the Manpower Office, PT. JAMSOSTEK and related insurance company within 48
hours.
