LOWONGAN ENVIRONMENT OFFICER, REA KALTIM PLANTATIONS GROUP

REA KALTIM PLANTATIONS, PT

REA Holdings (“REAH”) is a UK publicly listed company which established its first Indonesian subsidiary, PT REA Kaltim Plantations (“REAK”), in 1989. Whilst REAK originally focused on establishing oil palm plantations in KembangJanggut, KutaiKartenagara, East Kalimantan, the REA Kaltim Plantations Group now also owns oil palm concessions in Kutai Barat and KutaiTimur districts of East Kalimantan. As at 31 December 2012, the group’s titled land area totaled 70,584 hectares, of which some 36,794 hectares had been planted or was under development with oil palm and some 20,000 hectares had been set-aside as conservation reserves.

REAis committed to developing and managing its oil palm plantations in an environmentally and socially responsible manner. Compliance with national and international sustainability standards, including the Roundtable on Sustainable Palm Oil (RSPO), International Sustainability and Carbon Certification (ISCC), ISO14001 and the Indonesian Sustainable Palm Oil (ISPO) standards provides the foundations for achieving this. To date, REA has obtained RSPO, ISCC and ISO14001 certification for two of its three palm oil mills and the majority of their supply base, and will seek to obtain these certifications for its third mill and new developments in the coming years.

REA is prepared to go beyond the requirements of these sustainability requirements where it believes this is necessary to mitigate the negative environmental and social impacts of its operations and meet the expectations of its stakeholders. Towards this end, in July 2013, REA published its first sustainability report, in accordance with the internationally recognised Global Reporting Initiative (GRI) standard. It is the intention that such a report will be published biennially. This will enable REA’s stakeholders to better monitor the group’s sustainability performance. REA has also made a commitment to calculate and publish the carbon footprint of its operations on an annual basis. This will enablethe impact of the group’s efforts to reduce its GHG emissions to be monitored both internally and externally. Both the Sustainability Report and Carbon Footprint Report can be downloaded from REA’s websitewww.rea.co.uk/rea/en/sustainability/Reports
