The Palm Oil Industry Committed to the Rights of Children and Women Workers on Plantations

The palm oil industry in Indonesia is prioritizing the protection of children's rights and female workers as part of its commitment to sustainable practices. Plantations now feature facilities comparable to those in major cities, including lactation rooms, health services, early childhood education centers, and Women's Worker Protection Houses to create a child- and women-friendly environment.
This commitment was highlighted during a discussion at the Agricultural Journalists Forum in Jakarta, featuring key speakers from the Ministry of Agriculture, the National Research and Innovation Agency, the Indonesian Palm Oil Association, and Solidaridad Indonesia. The Ministry of Agriculture introduced Regulation 33/2025 on Sustainable Palm Oil Certification (ISPO), which includes 5 criteria and 36 labor indicators focused on eliminating child labor, ensuring gender equality, and protecting workers.
ISPO certification is tied to companies' contributions to the 17 Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), and performance on these metrics will influence national development assessments. With 9.6 million direct and 7 to 8 million indirect workers, plus families totaling around 50 million people dependent on the sector, sustainability is framed not only as a global demand but as a crucial domestic necessity for Indonesia’s extensive palm oil ecosystem.
