Lippo Cikarang, Tbk.

For three consecutive days Lippo Cikarang in cooperation with the Occupational Safety and Health Center Bandung, Ministry of Manpower and Transmigration (formerly known as Balai Hiperkes Safety Center Bandung), conducted training 'Safety Passport' for a total of 150 participants.

To get a passport, workers must follow the safety training program to equip candidates or labour to understand safety works in a company. So, the Safety Passport is an identity or proof that the employee or the labour candidate has a basic knowledge of safety works required by the industry.

So far, the Occupational Safety and Health Center Bandung has socialized this passport through higher educations and industrial managers about  the importance of this program, which is to establish the mindset (paradigm) of both labor resources and service users to create a healty, safe and comfortable environment as a culture in the working environment.

"We want workers in West Java to have competence in line with other worker in other countries that have implemented this program as a condition to join the workforce. They are workers from developed countries such as Japan, America and England", explained by Benzon Saragih, Head of the Occupational Safety and Health Center Bandung during an interview in Lippo Cikarang.
