Sohar Aluminium’s investment will not be limited to its smelting and power generation operations alone, but will extend to include the Social Investment it makes towards the people of Oman in general and the Batinah community in particular.

Our culture of ‘Zero Harm’, our Code of Conduct and the SA Values of Empowerment, Respect, Teamwork, Honesty, and Courage will be the guiding principles as to how we behave towards and interact with our host community.

Through our dedicated Community Relations staff and our Sohar Aluminium Information Centre, we have been actively working to establish partnerships with the community and plan and execute programs that address some of the key challenges in the area.

The Sohar Aluminium project will have significant socio-economic benefits for the Sultanate, notably in the area of employment generation. Offering specialized training to create a pool of highly-skilled operators; developing business opportunities for the private sector, both during the construction phase and after start-up; and creating downstream opportunities are goals actively pursued by Sohar Aluminium.

Our Business and Supplier Forums keep the local community at Sohar informed about the project progress and business opportunities available to them for supplying goods and services to the Sohar Aluminium project during the construction phase.
