PTBA also received the HIV-AIDS Prevention and Control Program Award in the Workplace.

Suhedi expressed his gratitude and appreciation for the achievements, which were expected to encourage PTBA further to continue strengthening its OSH culture.
"PTBA consistently implements Good Mining Practice throughout its operational activities. With a strong OSH culture, mining may be carried out effectively and safely. Hopefully this award will encourage us to continue innovating to improve OSH culture, allowing PTBA to deliver non-stop energy for the country," said Suhedi.
PTBA has made many initiatives to improve OSH culture, including OSH Management System (SMK3), Mining Safety Management System (SMKP), ISO 45001 - 2018 as the standards and guidelines for the Company in managing mining safety.

To minimize high risks while carrying out work, the Company has issued an appeal through a Circular Letter allowing every employee and work partner to postpone or temporarily cease their job or the work of others if conditions are identified to affect safety.
PTBA also uses business processes digitalization to strengthen OSH. The Company developed CISEA (Corporate Information System & Enterprise Application), which includes Safety, SHE News, and Mine Permit functions.
Employees' physical and mental health are also maintained through a variety of programs, such as employee counseling programs, a monthly Fun Walk Challenge With Partner 62 KM, healthy exercise, Berchanda program (Dare to Check Health and Free Consultation for Employees), and medical treatment at clinics or hospitals.
