Implementation of “Toshiba Group Global Environmental Action 2015”

[31 Mar, 2015]

Toshiba Group has designated June 5, which is World Environment Day, as the day for `Toshiba Group Global Environmental Action`, with the aim of creating a sense of unity among employees while allowing each of them to increase their environmental awareness, by bringing together the Group's entire global workforce of about 200,000 employees and getting individuals and sites around the world to take part in environmental actions at the same time. Last year, we implemented approximately 150 site actions in 20 countries around the globe. This year, setting April 1 to June 5 as the campaign period, each site will implement environmental actions in line with environmental themes based on our environmental management concept `T-COMPASS`. Following the campaign period, a media event is scheduled to be held at Smart Community Center in Kawasaki City, Japan, to total the results of the activity.

Towards reaching its goal of becoming one of the world's foremost eco-companies by 2015, Toshiba Group defined its 5th Environmental Action Plan in June, 2012. The plan includes promotion of ‘Global Environmental Action' as a means to tackle global environmental issues. Toshiba Group will continue to raise environmental awareness among Group employees and strengthen relationships with local communities.
