Identifying our Community Impact Prior to the construction of our manufacturing facilities, we conduct stakeholder identification and engage with surrounding communities as part of the EIA exercise, gathering feedback and engaging in dialogue to understand how we can positively impact the community. In our commitment to community stakeholder engagement, we focus on meaningful interaction and collaboration with local communities. We have implemented a structured approach that categorises communities into three (3) distinct groups: key stakeholders, primary stakeholders, and secondary stakeholders. This classification enables us to conduct thorough analysis of the community’s issues and tailor our actions to address the needs of our communities.

Through integrated and well-coordinated engagement efforts, we can effectively utilise available resources to maximise the impact of our efforts in bringing positive change; building a thriving and resilient community. In addition, our investments in education and skills development build local human capital and provide us with access to a pool of talent that may be able to contribute to our growth as a business. This, in turn, strengthens our reputation as a responsible and purposeful organisation. Moreover, by investing in local communities we are contributing to the national socio-economic development agenda as outlined in the 12th Malaysia Plan, thus strengthening government relations and positioning Press Metal as a champion of Malaysia’s advancement and prosperity.
