Education and Awareness-Raising

Fundamental Approach

Daihatsu’s environmental education aims to nurture people with high environmental awareness, who deepen their knowledge and understanding of environmental conservation activities, and who act on their own initiative. We carry out this education systematically in line with the content of each employee’s work.

Initiatives

Environment Month

President’s message distributed throughout the Group President’s message distributed throughout the Group

Every June is designated as Environment Month, during which initiatives aimed at raising environmental awareness are conducted. One element of the activities is the company president’s environmental message, which is distributed throughout the entire Group to get everyone on the same page.

Environmental Education

In the new recruit education and general education programs— targeted at newly hired employees and general employees, respectively—educators at Daihatsu’s business sites provide instruction on the relationship between their work and the environment, as well as their responsibilities. Employees responsible for promoting environmental initiatives also receive specialized training, such as environmental management education and legal compliance training.
