●Voluntary Cleanup around the Plant
For the purpose of maintaining the clean environment
in surrounding areas, the plant’s employees performed
cleanup by picking up trash ("Cleanup Program") around
the plant once a month. In addition, it is further promoting
environmental preservation around the plant by providing
environmental education to employees and requesting
Business Partners for cooperation to our environmental
preservation activities.
●Participation in Groundwater Cultivation Business
We participate in the groundwater cultivation business
cosponsored by the Council for Groundwater Usage in
Chuen Area and the Iwata City Environment Preservations
Section once a year, and work for forest conservation
activities together with other companies by planting and
thinning out trees.
●Deepening Exchange with Local Residents
Aiming to “develop with the community,” the plant
invites board members of local residents’ association
and other interested persons for the plant tour, providing
them with information on our environmental activities
and freely exchanging opinions. Also, we released the
implementation progress of the environmental measures
at Iwata Plant to the local residents’ association once in
three months to further deepen mutual understanding.
●Traffic Manner Check & Guidance
Traffic safety guidance activities were carried out on
public streets around the plant by the plant’s traffic safety
group members to improve traffic manners of employees.
●Lending of Sports Ground
The plant lends its ground to local sports groups. Since
the ground is equipped with a lighting facility, they can
enjoy evening practices or games.
●Acceptance of Plant Tour for Elementary and Junior High School
Students
We accept students from the local schools, as part of
the outdoor social studies program, and provide them
with a plant tour. The plant tour, which enables them
to learn how automobiles are actually assembled, is
helpful for their better understanding of the real world of
manufacturing.
