Mazda is striving to improve the environmental awareness of its employees, so they can work together in implementing the Company's environmental conservation activities. As well as disclosing information to stakeholders and fulfilling our responsibilities regarding accountability, we are using environmental events to forge closer ties.
Education to Raise Environmental Awareness among Employees
Mazda posts educational notices via its Intranet and issues reports in the in-house magazine My Mazda to foster environmental awareness among all Group employees.
As part of Environment Month held every year in June, we broadcast the president's environmental message internally and implement regional environmental improvement activities.
Participation in Team Minus 6%
As a part of the Kyoto Protocol, Japan pledged to make a 6% reduction in its emissions of greenhouse gases. Mazda is participating in the national Team Minus 6% campaign, with the objective of making this a reality. Team Minus 6% proposes six action plans such as "air-conditioner usage" and "water usage," featuring a total target of 55 items, for implementation in the office (28 Items) and in the home (27 items).
A pamphlet outlining concrete examples of applications for these directives has been distributed to all employees, and this includes raising awareness of global warming in the workplace and at home, as well as everyday energy-saving measures. Posters about the implementation of Cool Biz are embossed with the Team Minus 6% logo mark are placed in the reception areas of all branches and facilities, and this promotes customer awareness of these activities.
To promote Cool Biz, in FY2006, we posted guidelines on the Intranet about dressing for meetings with people from outside the Company.
