From October 13–17, 2025, PT Karet Batin Delapan (KBD) hosted a week-long series of activities focused on employee development, well-being, and togetherness with the theme of Bersama Wujudkan Perubahan, Bersatu Raih Keberhasilan (Together We Create Change, Together We Achieve Success). The program combined professional training sessions, personalised counselling with the HR team, and a joyful company gathering, all aimed at strengthening teamwork, building awareness, and fostering a culture of empowerment within the organisation.
This initiative reflects KBD’s ongoing commitment to not only improve performance and quality but also to invest in the growth and happiness of its people, the very heart of the company’s success.
Building Skills Through Comprehensive Training
The week began with a series of structured training sessions designed to enhance employees’ knowledge and technical expertise across key areas of production and management. The focus was on strengthening the understanding of work instructions (SOPs), safety protocols (K3), and quality assurance processes, ensuring that every member of the KBD team continues to perform to the highest standards.
Through interactive discussions and hands-on demonstrations, participants revisited best practices in rubber processing, workplace safety, and operational efficiency. Trainers emphasised that excellence in quality begins with discipline, awareness, and teamwork, values deeply rooted in KBD’s corporate culture.
This training initiative also aimed to build alignment between departments, ensuring that everyone shares the same understanding of company procedures and goals. By doing so, KBD reinforces its dedication to producing premium crumb rubber that meets global standards of consistency, safety, and sustainability.
Caring for People Through HR Counselling
Alongside technical training, the HR Department organised individual and group counselling sessions throughout the week. These sessions provided employees with a safe space to share thoughts, ask questions, and discuss personal or professional challenges.
The goal was to promote emotional well-being, strengthen communication between staff and management, and encourage a supportive workplace culture. Through these conversations, the HR team gained valuable insights into employee experiences, from motivation and career aspirations to work-life balance and personal growth.
PT Karet Batin Delapan recognises that success comes not only from skill but also from mental and emotional health. By listening to its employees and understanding their needs, KBD continues to nurture a positive, respectful, and empowering environment where everyone can thrive.
These counselling sessions also reinforced one of KBD’s core values: Empowerment. When people feel heard, respected, and supported, they become more confident and motivated to contribute their best. This initiative is part of the company’s broader vision to foster a thriving community built on trust, care, and shared purpose.
Strengthening Bonds Through the Company Gathering
The week concluded on October 17, 2025, with a vibrant and heartwarming company gathering event. Held at the KBD facility, the event brought together employees from different departments to celebrate teamwork, unity, and shared achievements.
The atmosphere was filled with joy and camaraderie as employees participated in games, performances, and team-building activities. The event also featured inspiring remarks from management, expressing appreciation for the team’s dedication, discipline, and contribution to the company’s growth.
This gathering served as a reminder that PT Karet Batin Delapan’s greatest strength lies in its people, individuals who bring passion, resilience, and collaboration to every aspect of the company’s journey. It was a celebration not only of success but of the values that define KBD: Quality, Collaboration, Empowerment, and Customer Focus.
By closing the week on a note of gratitude and unity, KBD reaffirmed its belief that progress is best achieved together. The bonds built during this week of learning, listening, and celebrating will continue to strengthen the company’s foundation for the future.
