Sustainability Policy

MKTR's Sustainability Policy is a tangible manifestation of the company's commitment to the principles of Sustainable Development. The policy is publicly available on the sustainability initiatives portal of MKTR's official website (https://mktr.co.id/) and is implemented based on the principles and criteria of Indonesian Sustainable Palm Oil (ISPO), as well as various other relevant international standards.

The latest update of the policy was made in June 2022 and signed by MKTR's President Director. This action affirms the company's commitment to prevent and minimize potential risks or negative impacts of business activities on the workforce, community and environment. This policy is also aligned with the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), and is designed to support the company's sustainable development strategy.

This policy serves as a guideline for all of the company's operational activities to be in line with sustainability principles, including adjusting to changes in the provisions of the Roundtable on Sustainable Palm Oil (RSPO). In its implementation, this policy refers to key principles such as corporate social responsibility, transparency, respect for labor, and environmental protection and restoration.

MKTR bases this policy on the 3P principle:

  1. Profit - Maintaining long-term economic viability for business prosperity.
  2. People - Paying attention to human welfare, including workers and the surrounding community.
  3. Planet - Managing natural resources and the environment responsibly.

The 3P approach shows that sustainability does not only focus on economic aspects or financial benefits, but also includes social and environmental aspects in a balanced manner to ensure sustainable company growth.
As a tangible form of this commitment, MKTR has designed and implemented various programs and initiatives that support the SDGs, such as:

  • Poverty alleviation
  • Improved health and well-being
  • Support for gender equality
  • Provision of access to clean water and proper sanitation
  • Use of clean and affordable energy
  • Creation of decent jobs and economic growth
  • Responsible consumption and production
  • Addressing climate change
  • Strategic partnerships to achieve global development goals

In an effort to ensure high quality and environmental standards, MKTR has also obtained various certifications:

  • ISPO (Indonesian Sustainable Palm Oil) since 2019
  • ISO 9001:2015 - Quality management system certification (2022)
  • ISO 14001:2015 - Environmental management system certification

Compliance with these international standards reinforces MKTR's position as a company that embraces sustainability principles throughout its business operations.
Furthermore, MKTR emphasizes its commitment to respecting human rights for all parties who may be affected by the company's activities. This includes employees, local communities, and vulnerable groups who are at high risk from the company's operational activities and from its suppliers.
As part of the implementation of this policy, all MKTR suppliers are required to agree and fully support the Sustainability Policy. In addition, this policy is also actively socialized to all employees and work partners to ensure understanding and compliance with sustainability principles.
