PT Gunbuster Nickel Industry (GNI) continues to be committed to improving the welfare of the people around its operational area by distributing social security through the BPJS Employment program to non-formal workers in Bunta Village, Tanauge Village, and Bungintimbe Village.

These non-formal workers are those who are not bound by formal work or work contracts with companies, including freelancers, daily laborers, street vendors, domestic workers, as well as farmers and fishermen operating in the informal sector.

Although they are often not officially regulated, they have a crucial role in running the economy and are vital parts of social and economic structure due to their significant contribution.

Head of Corporate Communication of PT GNI Mellysa Tanoyo emphasized that the initiative to distribute BPJS Ketenagakerjaan was the company's concrete step to advance the welfare of the surrounding community.

"We are committed to continuing to improve community welfare through this BPJS Employment program, which we hope will continue to be appreciated and provide tangible benefits," said Mellysa, in her statement.

Furthermore, Mellysa said that non-formal workers are often the main pillar in the family economy, with great responsibility for the cost of education, health, and daily needs.

Therefore, PT GNI is very interested in making a positive contribution to the community, especially those living around industrial areas, because the company's growth is very dependent on the support of this community.

"By increasing their support and working conditions, we are not only contributing to improving welfare, but also strengthening wider economic and social foundations," concluded Mellysa.
