Jakarta. The Environment Ministry has disclosed that more than 200 hotels, including several in Bali, are still receiving a provisional Red rating under the Company Performance Rating Program (PROPER), indicating non-compliance with environmental regulations.

Rasio Ridho Sani, Deputy for Pollution and Environmental Damage Control at the ministry, said assessments have been carried out on 5,476 companies, with many, among them hospitality businesses in Bali, still falling short of requirements.

“Earlier, we reported that around 229 companies in the hospitality sector remain non-compliant under our provisional ranking,” Rasio said.

He explained that the Red rating is assigned to companies that fail to meet certain environmental standards. These businesses are now making efforts to address deficiencies, including filing objections, with a deadline set for Sep. 27.

According to Rasio, the rise in Red ratings this year reflects the introduction of new evaluation standards, particularly in waste management and carbon economic value. Hotels are now required to take greater responsibility for handling their waste, a pressing issue as several final disposal sites, including those in Bali, have already reached capacity.

“This is also one of the reasons some companies remain non-compliant, as the updated PROPER criteria now cover waste management,” he added.

Of the 5,476 companies assessed, the palm oil sector accounted for the largest share at 960 firms (18 percent), followed by hotels at 311 (6 percent), and textiles at 259 (5 percent).

Under PROPER, a Red rating signals poor environmental performance, showing failure to meet multiple regulations despite some remedial efforts. The lowest rating, Black, is reserved for companies that not only fail to comply but also cause pollution, while the highest ratings are Gold, Green, and Blue.
