To make the Environmental Vision a reality, the TATSUTA Group has established the Quality and Environment Policy.
Guided by the policy, we seek to achieve carbon neutrality by 2025, reduce the environmental impact of products and services,
and promote recycling and energy saving, among other initiatives.
In keeping with the Quality and Environment Policy below, TATSUTA undertakes specific initiatives to reduce the environmental impact of products and services, promote recycling and energy saving, and prevent global warming (reduce CO2 emissions).
The TATSUTA Group’s structures for promoting environmental management systems (EMS) are composed of three main parts, with each part taking assigned roles according to the level of importance.
TATSUTA is also actively engaged in environmental conservation activities through structures for EMS that are integrated with Tatsuta Environmental Analysis Center, TATSUTA Welfare Service, Tatsuta Tachii Electric Cable, and Chugoku Electric Wire & Cable, which are located in the same site with TATSUTA Electric Wire & Cable.
TATSUTA implements environmental education for all its employees in order to deepen their understanding of environmental conservation activities.
New recruits receive introductory training on the Quality and Environment Policy, environmental conservation initiatives and rules such as energy conservation and waste reduction.
Employees engaged in specific activities receive specialist education such as a skill training course for organic solvents operations supervisors.
Internal audit personnel are educated through external and internal training. Audit personnel who have acquired internal qualifications are given hands-on training through participation in actual internal audits with the aim of enhancing their abilities as audit personnel. In the fiscal year ended March 31, 2022, we increased the number of audit personnel qualified for EMS and quality management systems (QMS).
Employees participate in external lectures and seminars in order to collect information on environmental conservation such as laws, regulations, and technologies. Previously, they have participated in events such as symposiums on environmental conservation and recent international trends.
Education is implemented on laws, regulations, and bylaws relating to environmental conservation, as well as issues such as the handling of chemicals. In the fiscal year ended March 31, 2022, we launched an e-learning environmental education program for all employees. Moreover, during Japan’s Environment Month each year, we invite employees to submit suggestions for an energy-saving awareness slogan and energy-saving proposals.
