Source text - English With the group philosophy of “Creating a Vibrant Environment for All Members of Society,”
through our construction activities, we strive for the development of quality social infrastructure and the improvement of the living environment in harmony with Nature.
As environmental problems worldwide increase, our business activities are necessarily a part of the burden on the environment.
With these environmental management principles as a guide, and working for an environmentally sensitive society, we and our group companies strive for
“Environmental Protection and Innovation,” and promote “Pioneering Environmental Projects” in all corporate activities.
Action Guidelines
1. We shall prevent environmental pollution through compliance with environmental laws,
regulations, and agreements and, through the effective application of our Environmental
Management System (EMS), expand and continually improve environmental conservation
activities.
2. We shall develop environmental technologies that contribute to the realization of a
low-carbon society, the conservation of biological diversity, and the formation of a
recycling-based society, and use these technologies to benefit our clients and resolve
environmental problems.
3. During both planning and design phases, we shall give proper consideration to global and
regional environments, and propose to our clients the creation of facilities that harmoniously
coexist with the natural environment, conserve energy and resources throughout their
life-cycle, and reduce CO2 emissions.
4. During construction, we shall reduce CO2 emissions, give proper consideration to biological
diversity, and promote the efficient use of resources, thereby reducing the burden on the
environment. In cooperation with specialty contractors and business partners, we shall
promote the 3R of construction byproducts (Reduce, Reuse, Recycle), along with other
environmental conservation activities.
5. We shall communicate effectively with local communities, and as a worthy corporate citizen,
contribute to the conservation of regional environments.
6. We shall proactively cooperate with other nations, NGO’s and NPO’s in creating and
protecting the environment.
