JAKARTA - PT Lintas Nugraha Ekakurir (JNE) decided to impose sanctions in the form of terminating the cooperation relationship to CV Bangun Benua Lestari as a partner. The termination was the aftermath of the JNE boycott hashtag which was buzzing on Twitter.

JNE's VP of Marketing, Eri Palgunadi said that CV Bangun Benua Lestari had violated SOPs and company values that respect diversity and differences. Therefore, the sanction given is termination of cooperation.

"This incident is a violation of SOPs and company values that respect diversity and difference. Therefore, JNE's management expressly provides sanctions for terminating cooperation with partners and for unscrupulous employees related to this case, termination of employment will be carried out," said Eri, quoted on Wednesday, December 8th.

For your information, the JNE boycott hashtag that is buzzing on social media is the result of the circulation of job vacancies pamphlets opened by JNE, in which there is one requirement that is of concern to netizens, namely requiring applicants to be Muslim. These vacancies are considered discriminatory.

It is known that JNE Express has opened job vacancies for motorbike couriers in the Tamiang Layang area, East Dusun District, East Barito Regency, Central Kalimantan Province. However, the maker of the job vacancy pamphlet is named CV Bangun Benua Lestari.

Eri explained that JNE has been present in Indonesia for 31 years, and was built by management and employees who come from various ethnic groups, races and religions.

"Therefore, JNE strongly adheres to company values that prioritize tolerance and mutual respect and respect for differences," he said.

Furthermore, Eri said these values are realized in various aspects of JNE's activities, including employee religious activities, appreciation of worship trips for employees with 10 years of service, whether for umrah, holly land, and others.

"Free delivery of Al-Quran & Bible with Kang Maman Suherman to various reading gardens, donations to various Muslim, Christian, Hindu and Buddhist orphanages, as well as regular content for Friday and Sunday worship on social media," he said.

The buzz of the JNE boycott hashtag was started by a netizen named Leonard Han, where he uploaded a job vacancy pamphlet at JNE from CV Bangun Benua Lestari.

"JNE is still not converted, right. This is the one in the Tamiang area, Central Kalimantan. Do you think you are consistent by including an announcement that you don't accept shipments of non-Muslim goods???," he wrote, quoted on Tuesday, December 7th.

According to Leonardo, JNE should not only dare to reject prospective non-Muslim employees, but must also dare to refuse business related to non-Muslims.

"Don't just dare to refuse prospective non-Muslim employees, but also have the courage to refuse business related to non-Muslims," he continued.

Meanwhile, one netizen with an account named @nuvitariani considered that the job vacancy was very discriminatory. Especially considering that the majority of residents in the area are non-Muslims.

"God-level discrimination. MUST BE ISLAMIC, if you want to work at JNE Tamiang Layang. You shouldn't have to write it like that, especially when the majority of East Barito people are non-Muslim. Respect each other," he wrote.
