Multinational Food Manufacturing Company Partners with ESC to Develop EHS Legal Register for Two Plant Sites in Indonesia

About

A leading food processing company operating two manufacturing plants in Indonesia required a more robust and site-specific approach to managing Environmental, Health & Safety (EHS) compliance.

EHS compliance for food manufacturing in Indonesia can be complex, particularly where site-specific licensing, environmental permits, and occupational safety obligations vary across jurisdictions. By partnering with ESC to develop a comprehensive legal register, supported by structured audits, targeted workforce training, and quarterly regulatory updates, the company strengthened regulatory oversight, improved compliance visibility, and reduced operational risk across both facilities.

    The Challenge

    The company’s existing legal register lacked sufficient depth and site-specific detail to ensure full compliance with Indonesian environmental and occupational safety regulations.

    Key challenges included:

    • Limited visibility of applicable local regulatory requirements
    • Difficulties tracking and managing licensing obligations
    • Gaps in evaluating site-level compliance
    • Resource constraints within the in-house team

    Without a structured and comprehensive register, compliance monitoring across both plants was becoming increasingly complex and risk-prone.

    The Solution

    SimplyEHS developed a comprehensive EHS Legal Register tailored to the company’s two Indonesian plant sites.

    The engagement included:

    • A detailed compliance audit to identify regulatory gaps
    • Development of a structured, site-specific legal register
    • Workforce training to strengthen regulatory understanding
    • Quarterly monitoring and updates to reflect regulatory changes

    The register provides a centralised and organised reference for environmental, health, and safety obligations, enabling the operations team to clearly understand applicable requirements and licensing responsibilities.

    The Outcome

    With SimplyEHS’s support, the company now maintains a structured and reliable legal register covering both plant sites. Compliance monitoring has become more systematic and efficient, reducing the administrative burden on internal teams. The organisation benefits from timely regulatory updates, allowing it to adapt quickly to changing Indonesian requirements while strengthening risk management and fostering a culture of continuous improvement across its operations.
