As a business grows and begins to build or expand its physical facilities, attention to building permits and environmental documents becomes unavoidable. Unfortunately, many business owners consider them to be time-consuming and costly formalities, when in fact, they are a vital investment for long-term business sustainability and legality.
Building Permits: More Than Just a License to Build
The Building Approval (PBG) and the Certificate of Functional Feasibility (SLF) are two crucial types of building permits. A PBG ensures your construction plans comply with spatial planning and applicable technical standards, while an SLF guarantees that the building is functionally and safely fit for use. Operating without these permits can lead to fines, forced demolition, and even criminal sanctions. Additionally, a building without a PBG and SLF will have a low market value and is difficult to use as collateral for loans. By managing these permits correctly, you not only avoid legal risks but also increase your asset value and business credibility in the eyes of the government and potential investors.
Environmental Documents: A Commitment to the Environment
In line with building permits, environmental documents like UKL-UPL and Amdal demonstrate a company’s commitment to responsible environmental management. UKL-UPL (Environmental Management and Monitoring Efforts) is generally required for small to medium-scale activities that do not have a major impact. Meanwhile, an Amdal (Environmental Impact Analysis) is mandatory for large-scale projects or those with the potential to cause a significant environmental impact. These documents not only fulfill legal requirements but also reflect a business ethic that cares for the environment and surrounding community. Failure to manage them can result in severe sanctions, ranging from freezing to revoking business permits.
