Sime Darby Plantation Berhad (SDP) is the world’s largest producer of certified sustainable palm oil. We are committed to responsible recruitment to ensure that our workers are free from forced labour and exploitative practices.

In July 2021, SDP became aware that some of our foreign workers may have been charged additional fees by third-party recruitment agents. Such fees are unreported payments charged by agents, sub-agents or other third parties to our foreign workers in their countries of origin, in contravention of SDP’s zero recruitment fee policy.

As part of our ongoing remediation programme, SDP will be reimbursing our eligible foreign workers who used to work for us with a one-off lump sum payment (the Remediation Payment).

We invite all SDP former workers who left the company on or after 1 November 2018 to contact our appointed lawyers as per the below contact details, within 2 months from the date of this advertisement in order to be considered for the Remediation Payment. Our appointed lawyers will provide further information to prospective claimants on how they may make a claim for the Remediation Payment.
