CSR initiatives encompass all of our business activities, and every employee involved with our business takes part in CSR.
At Polyplastics, we believe that the "CSR mindset" of each and every employee is the most important thing, and that it is the foundation of all our efforts. From this perspective, we are making various efforts so that each and every employee can sincerely face CSR and reflect it in their daily work.
CSR Network
To promote CSR activities across the entire group, we have appointed CSR promoters at each group company and established a CSR network centered around our headquarters. Members of the network engage in social contribution activities led by the promoters under the slogan “Harmony & Sustainability for the Future,” along with holding quarterly meetings for each company to report on the progress toward their activity goals, share the issues they’re facing, and exchange opinions.
In FY 2024, Group-wide activities continued to be carried out as in the preceding fiscal year to complement social contribution activities undertaken by each company in line with local needs. This year, each employee declared the activity goals for the reduction of CO2 in accordance with the theme of “My Carbon Reduction Challenge” and took on challenges by using reusable water bottles in the office, commuting by bicycle, and engaging in other such actions.
The Group will continue to work as one to develop social contribution activities to promote coexistence with the local community, nurture the next generation, and support the volunteering mindset.
CSR Education and Training
To improve their knowledge and awareness of CSR activities, we provide education for all group employees, including those at overseas group companies.
In FY 2024, we provided an e-learning program and regularly distributed articles explaining CSR, such as those concerning the European ELV Directive, which is of societal interest, and EVs, which are being developed, to employees.
On SUSTAINavi, an in-house portal site launched last year to bring together information on sustainability, we set up a new special page with a focus on DE&I to serve as an information platform from which we can provide news on our DE&I initiatives on a timely basis.
