LOMBOK, 27 September 2026 – Center for Village Innovation (CVI), in collaboration with IOI Group, held a Pre-Employment Orientation Training for Workers Deployment to IOI Plantations in Lombok. The program was designed to prepare prospective Indonesian migrant workers from Lombok before they start working at IOI Group plantations in Malaysia. Representatives from CVI and the sending recruitment agency also attended the event.
The orientation covered several important topics to help workers prepare for their journey:
- Self-efficacy: Helping workers build confidence and adapt to a new working environment.
- Life in Malaysia & Plantation Work: Providing clear information about Malaysian culture, local living, and daily work at IOI plantations.
- Worker Rights & ILO Standards: Explaining basic worker rights, duties, and safety standards based on International Labour Organization (ILO) guidelines.
- Financial Literacy: Teaching practical money management skills so workers can manage their income wisely.
A representative from CVI emphasized the importance of this training for a safe and successful working experience:
“Through this orientation, we want to make sure that workers fully understand their rights and duties, including workplace safety, available facilities, and communication channels. CVI is committed to supporting workers so they can work safely, professionally, and with dignity from day one,” said a CVI representative.
Through this initiative, prospective workers from Lombok are expected to adapt smoothly, stay safe on the job, and manage their well-being while working in Malaysia.
