Encouraging employees' volunteer activities with the "Eco-Volun" initiative
Since fiscal 2006, OMRON has been promoting its "Eco-Volun" initiative at its two sites in Tokyo. Under this initiative, employees receive a predetermined number of points when they participate in environmental conservation or volunteer activities, for instance, 30 points per year for keeping a household eco-accounting book. The points that employees earn are combined and converted into a monetary value. The company then pledges this amount to various corporate-level contribution activities.
In fiscal 2007, a total of 9,820 points was accumulated. These points were used to donate 150 seedlings to the NPO Morizukuri (Forestation) Forum for its tree-planting project. In fiscal 2008, as part of the celebration for the 75th anniversary of the company's founding, OMRON will promote "Eco-Volun" activities that involve all employees throughout the world.
