Putting the Company Credo of "Five Principles" into Practice through CSR
In Thailand too, the MinebeaMitsumi Group's company credo of "Five Principles" is the foundation of our CSR. Management is carried out by the CSR Committee by making reference to ISO 26000. What is distinctive about the Group's CSR measures in Thailand is that each plant engages in direct dialogue with local communities, sets themes according to the issues in each region, and implements projects based on those themes. We make sure to reflect the results of projects in future plans. These integrated undertakings have been well received, and the Group has received the CSR-DIW* Continuous Award from the Department of Industrial Works, Ministry of Industry for nine consecutive years.
The MinebeaMitsumi Group focuses on environmental measures to fill its responsibilities to local communities. The Group's plants in Thailand have sought to be energy-saving facilities since their establishment. Some plants have introduced "Plant Wastewater Zero Systems" that gather all wastewater and purify it to levels stricter than those required by laws and regulations for use on the plant site. This is an extremely important initiative from the perspective of business continuity. In addition, food waste from on-site cafeterias is composted, the biogas generated by the compost is used for cooking to reduce LP gas use, and other active measures are taken to reduce environmental impact.
One area of particular emphasis at present is the dissemination of CSR information. General Manager Imanaka, who oversees activities, explained, "We inform local executives and all employees about CSR activities by reporting important matters to the Executive Officer Council and the Executive Council and posting the details of activities on the Thai websites in Thai and English." Other efforts are also made to disseminate information internally including monthly production and distribution to all employees of CSR-related pamphlets as an employee communications tool.
