Abstract

ABSTRACT Problem/Background (GAP): The presence of the nickel mining industry in North Morowali Regency, particularly operated by PT Gunbuster Nickel Industry, has brought significant changes to the lives of surrounding communities. This mining activity not only impacts income growth and job creation but also causes complex social and economic dynamics. Purpose: This study aims to examine the impact of nickel mining activities on the socio-economic conditions of communities in North Morowali Regency. Methods: This study aims to examine the impact of nickel mining activities on the socio-economic conditions of communities in North Morowali Regency. Method: This research employs a qualitative approach, collecting data through in-depth interviews, observations, and documentation at PT Gunbuster Nickel Industry, Bunta Village, North Morowali Regency. Informants were purposively selected, including government officials, company management, workers, and affected community members. Key informants, namely the Head of the Environmental Service and the Operational Manager of PT GNI, were chosen for their strategic understanding of technical mining aspects and environmental policies directly affecting the community. Data were analyzed inductively through data reduction, presentation, and conclusion drawing to gain a deep and contextual understanding of the socio-economic and environmental impacts of nickel mining activities. Results/Findings: The study reveals that PT Gunbuster Nickel Industry (GNI) significantly impacts six main dimensions of community life: increased income, a shift in economic structure from primary to industrial and service sectors, increased absorption of local labor, changes in community health due to environmental pollution, diverse community perceptions of the mining industry, and a rise in population due to in-migration of workers from outside areas. On the other hand, issues such as worker conflicts, social inequality, and environmental degradation also emerged. The North Morowali Regency Government has undertaken several efforts, including conflict mediation facilitation, regulatory strengthening, and collaboration on community empowerment programs. Conclusion: This study shows that nickel mining activities by PT Gunbuster Nickel Industry have significant effects on the socio-economic conditions of North Morowali Regency’s communities, with increased income and employment opportunities, but also challenges such as social conflicts and environmental impacts that require serious attention from the government and related stakeholders.
