Industrial training report: Petra Energy Berhad

This report details the activities, experiences, and achievements during my industrial training at Petra Energy Berhad, spanning from November 2, 2024, to March 3, 2025. The internship provided an excellent opportunity to gain hands-on experience within the Group Human Capital division, specifically in the Compensation and Benefits and Engagement division. During the training, I was entrusted with a range of tasks that combined technical, administrative, and strategic responsibilities. Core tasks included payroll processing, managing the electronic overtime (e-OT) system, handling employee claims, and maintaining organized and accurate filing systems. These responsibilities required attention to detail, efficiency, and a strong understanding of internal HR policies and procedures. Beyond operational duties, I actively participated in broader organizational initiatives. One notable experience was assisting with the planning for the year 2025, which involved aligning human capital strategies with the company's goals. I also gained exposure to performance management systems during a dedicated session, which deepened my understanding of how organizations assess and enhance employee performance. In addition, I had the privilege of supporting the SSABiL program, an Islamic initiative aimed at guiding employees toward achieving a steady and blessed life through tazkirah and spiritual engagement. This experience allowed me to contribute to fostering a positive and inclusive workplace culture. My involvement in recruitment activities, particularly conducting interviews with prospective candidates, further honed my interpersonal and communication skills while providing insight into talent acquisition processes. This industrial training served as a transformative learning experience, equipping me with technical knowledge, practical skills, and a broader perspective on the strategic and operational aspects of human resources. The exposure to real-world HR practices at Petra Energy Berhad has been invaluable in preparing me for a successful career in human resource management.
