In addition to workplace conditions, we also strive to enhance employees’ overall quality of life through initiatives such as township development in PMBtu, which provides improved living conditions, community spaces, and access to essential amenities. Respecting Freedom of Association and Collective Bargaining Respecting workers’ rights to participate in trade unions, worker organisations and collective bargaining is a fundamental aspect of Press Metal’s Human Rights Policy. The Group upholds fair labour practices and fosters a workplace culture that promotes collaboration and mutual respect between employees and employers. Press Metal facilitates the voluntary election of workers’ and hostel representatives and has established a women’s committee to serve as a vital conduit between staff and leadership. These representatives actively participate in structured forums — such as town halls and management meetings — to address workplace matters, ensuring employee voices are heard and valued.
