PALMOILMAGAZINE, JAKARTA – The Indonesian Palm Oil Association (GAPKI) and the International Labour Organization (ILO) have once again joined forces to enhance responsible business practices in the palm oil industry, organizing a Responsible Business Conduct (RBC) and Human Rights Due Diligence (HRDD) training program for GAPKI member companies in Jakarta.
Held on 28–29 January 2026, the training aimed to strengthen corporate understanding and capacity in implementing responsible business behavior and human rights due diligence, particularly in labor-related aspects of the palm oil sector.
The initiative comes amid rising expectations from global markets, investors, and governments for business practices that respect workers’ rights and human rights throughout supply chains.
GAPKI Chairman Eddy Martono emphasized that labor and human rights issues go beyond regulatory compliance and have a direct impact on business sustainability and industry competitiveness.
Through this initiative, GAPKI and the ILO hope Indonesian palm oil companies will be better prepared to meet evolving HRDD requirements in global trade and supply chains, while reinforcing their commitment to responsible and sustainable business practices.
