For the year 2019, there were a total of 3 occupational fatalities of male workers in Indonesia. The fatalities were of a worker carrying out FFB harvesting

Types of Work Related Injury
Based on the cases reviewed, the probable cause were identified as failure to adhere to the Company’s OSH requirements and standard operating
procedures, especially in use of personal protection equipment and ensuring safe vehicle operations. In 2019, the majority of incidents reported involved harvesting, fruit evacuation and field upkeep activities. The main causes
of injury includes but not limited to thorn pricks, cuts from sharp tools, eye injury or irritation from falling debris, and bruises
Learning from these incidences, the Group aims to continuously improve the safety of our workforce, remove potential risks that could cause any and cuts from falling fruits and fronds. Other incidents are commuting accidents, trips and falls, heavy lifting injuries and
