In addition, the company urges the public to be more careful when receiving recruitment information and not to be tempted by job offers that require payments, promise guaranteed acceptance, or claim to represent company officials.

"PT TIMAH (Persero) Tbk would like to inform the public that the company is currently not conducting any recruitment or hiring of new employees," said PT TIMAH (Persero) Tbk Department Head of Corporate Communication, Anggi Siahaan.

Furthermore, Anggi emphasized that all recruitment processes are completely free of charge. Every recruitment process is officially announced and conducted only through the company's official channels.
