Promoting environmentally conscious business activities while working to conserve natural resources
OMRON considers addressing environmental issues to be its corporate responsibility and thus is an important management objective for the Group. Accordingly, OMRON established its new basic policies for the environment, consisting of 'environmentally conscious business activities' and 'environmental conservation activities' in the OMRON Group CSR Practice Guidelines (see pg. 12 'Publication of Guidelines').
As for environmentally conscious activities, while working to lessen the negative impact on the environment arising from its business activities, the OMRON Group will also remain committed to developing and promoting products and technologies that help conserve natural resources and the environment. OMRON also aims to implement environmental management practices that enhance both ecology and efficiency. To build a solid base for environmental management, OMRON will provide all employees with environmental education and awareness-raising opportunities in order to encourage an ecological mindset.
In the area of environmental conservation activities, OMRON recognizes that actions implemented by all concerned organizations and individuals are crucial for the promotion of conservation of natural resources and the environment. As such, the OMRON Group, together with relevant organizations, will proactively engage itself in solving the environmental issues that society faces. All OMRON Group directors and employees are expected to demonstrate concern for environmental protection, even in private activities away from work, and to act in an environmentally conscious manner.
