A healthy workplace is built not only by responding to incidents, but also by preventing health risks before they become bigger concerns.

In Indonesia, the Ministry of Health emphasizes that occupational health efforts should go beyond accident prevention. They include prevention, risk control, diagnosis, and appropriate treatment to help create healthier and safer workplaces. The Ministry also highlights the importance of preventive and promotive occupational health efforts across workplaces.

At PT Lautan Natural Krimerindo (LNK), this preventive approach starts with recognizing employees as an important part of the business. Taking care of their health is part of creating a workplace where people can carry out their responsibilities safely and effectively.

One of the ways LNK puts this commitment into practice is through its annual Medical Check-Up (MCU), held on 30 September 2026 for employees.

Understanding Health For Every Role

An annual MCU gives employees an opportunity to monitor their health and become more aware of their overall condition. Rather than waiting for a health concern to affect their ability to work, regular health checks can support early identification and encourage employees to take appropriate steps to maintain their well-being.

At LNK, the health examination also takes into account the different risks associated with employees’ respective roles.

For employees working in areas with higher noise exposure, for example, additional hearing screening is conducted. This helps monitor their hearing condition and supports preventive efforts against potential health issues associated with workplace noise.

Other considerations are also taken into account to help ensure that employees have the appropriate physical condition for their respective positions. This is important not only for their own safety, but also for maintaining a safe working environment for those around them.

Connecting Health with Workplace Safety

Employee health and workplace safety are closely connected. A safe workplace is not only about responding to incidents when they happen, but also about identifying potential risks and taking preventive measures.

This is why regular health monitoring forms an important part of LNK’s approach to employee welfare. Through the annual MCU and additional screening based on occupational risks, employees have an opportunity to better understand their health while the company can continue supporting a workplace that prioritizes safety.

By supporting employee health, LNK also helps create an environment where people can carry out their responsibilities safely and with greater awareness of their own health.

Health Starts from Within

The annual MCU is only one part of LNK’s efforts to support employee well-being. Beyond the yearly health examination, LNK also supports other health-related programs as part of its broader commitment to employee welfare.

For Rif’an Mashuri, Head of Division Human Capital & Corporate Affair at LNK, the effort has a clear purpose: to make sure employees remain healthy and able to contribute effectively, while preventing health conditions that may be related to their work.

“We do not want our employees to become ill because of their work or developing work related health issues. We strive to make sure our employees’ health is well maintained.”

– Rif’an Mashuri, Head of Division Human Capital & Corporate Affair at LNK

As a business whose products contribute to healthier choices for the community, LNK’s commitment to health also starts from within, with the people behind the work.

By conducting annual health checks, providing additional screening based on occupational risks, and following up on health findings, LNK continues to support its employees in staying healthy and working safely.

Because taking care of the people behind the work is also part of keeping LNK moving forward.
