Standalone HCS assessments are usually done by companies to ensure that they are meeting their ‘No Deforestation’ commitments. 

The HCSA allows the company to differentiate between forest and non-forest at the time of development.

HCS assessments have subsequently been expanded to include extensive social requirements.

PT Hijau Daun has undertaken and completed numerous HCS assessments which have been reviewed by the HCSA and are posted on the HCSA website.

Importantly, PT Hijau Daun has credible insight into what’s required for our clients as PT Hijau Daun:

• Acts as a report reviewer for HCSA, so is very familiar with all the guidances and toolkits.

• Is the author of the HCSA Management and Monitoring Guidance section of the HCSA Guidance document.

• Developed the HCSA report review checklist for the RSPO.
