Environmental Measures
Energy Conservation, Renewable Energy, and Resource Conservation Measures
■Digitalization of internal documents
In addition to conducting paperless meetings on a Company-wide basis, we are working to reduce paper resources by digitalizing routinely prepared documents and documents distributed to employees.
■Introducing a secure printing system
At all of our sites, we have introduced a secure printing system designed to reduce unnecessary printing and enhance security.
■Shifting to LED lighting
With the introduction of LED lighting on all floors, we are working to reduce CO2 emissions by conserving electricity.
■Renewable rechargeable batteries
Batteries for remote controls for large monitors and other equipment in conference and seminar rooms have been changed to renewable eneloop rechargeable batteries to operate activities that are environmentally conscious and reduce waste.
■Adopting a flexible dress code
With the exception of meetings with customers and other such circumstances, we have a flexible dress code that lets employees wear casual clothes of their choice in the office, as long as they are appropriate for the time, place and occasion.
Establishment of Paperless Policy
As part of its measures to address the SDGs, the Company is working to effectively use finite resources and reduce its environmental impact, with the goal of realizing a resource recycling society.
We are working to digitalize documents (create electronic documents) (i.e., go paperless), with the goal of proactively implementing remote work, which will simultaneously improve job satisfaction and fulfilment through diverse work styles and the creation of better work environments.
Procurement of Management Resources and 3R Activities
■Purchasing of green products and inventory management
We have introduced a unified purchasing and procurement system for office supplies across the Company. We purchase environmentally friendly green products such as recycled paper and toner.
Ordering and inventory management of office supplies is carried out solely by a designated department. We make every effort to avoid ordering and stockpiling unnecessary office supplies.
■Paper Products (Business Cards and Clear Files)
Business cards given to customers are made of environmentally friendly paper certified by the Forest Stewardship Council (FCS), an international membership organization that contributes to environmental conservation. In addition, clear files with our logo that are handed to customers are made of paper that can be recycled as an environmentally friendly paper resource.
■Promoting 3R Activities
For confidential documents, we participate in environmental protection activities to recycle paper collected as source materials for recycled paper as corrugated cardboard materials after implementation of dissolution process.
■Participating in Eco-Cap Activities
Plastic bottle caps are collected in collection boxes, contributing to the reduction of CO2 emissions and providing vaccines to children.
Implementation Status of Environmental Management Education Activities
We conduct environmental management education for all executives and temporary employees at least once a year to promote understanding of our environmental policy and actions with awareness of the policy.
