Community Capability Development in Indonesia
Community Engagement

Indominco mine in Indonesia has proactively addressed the anticipated strong demand for local labor driven by a new capital establishment in the region. In partnership with the Bontang Welder Association and its contractors, Indominco launched an “Industry-Standard Welding Training Program.” Since 2019, 47 trainees have successfully completed this program, with an impressive 75% employment rate post-training, while 24 of these individuals are now working as contractors for Indominco.
In 2023, Indominco collaborated with partners to enhance the training curriculum and conduct trainee selection process. The effort culminated in the selection of 22 participants from 11 villages, including 5 women, who are currently progressing through the training pipeline. This initiative not only equips participants with essential skills but also fosters gender diversity in traditionally male-dominated fields. Further enhancing the program’s impact, Indominco aims to form a welder alumni association to facilitate knowledge sharing among graduates and support sustainability of the program.
