Environmental Management Structures
Each plant is making ongoing efforts to promote environmental compliance and improvement activities on an environmental management system (EMS) Environmental Committee basis with the respective Plant Manager serving concurrently as the Chief Environmental Manager. The Company has established the Central Environmental Promotion Committee (officer in charge: Takuto Fujii, Officer of the Company) as an upper-level organization of the plants and two additional business locations, specifically the Head Office and C&C Tochigi, to manage matters related to company-wide global environmental improvement activities.
In the fiscal year ended March 31, 2019, we conducted an expanded examination at the Head Office, C&C Tochigi and GTL (G-TEKT TOKYO LAB), and the EMS certification acquisition rate is now 100% (based on number of business locations) in Japan.
Furthermore, since April 2017, we have been holding the “Global CSR Conference” (chair: Naohiro Takao, President, Chief Executive Officer) periodically in an effort to strengthen our environmental management worldwide as well as to share information with each Chief Operating Officer for Regional Operations overseas.
