The
Ricoh Group lives by a set of general principles on the environment
that serve as the foundation for all policy decisions:
- Not only do we comply with all domestic and overseas environmental
regulations, but we also set our own targets to reduce stress
on the environment in consideration of social expectations, and
we endeavour to attain our targets.
- We strive to promote technological innovation while at the
same time maintaining and improving our environmental conservation
systems.
- In development, design and operation of factory facilities,
we always consider their impact on the environment, and we strive
to prevent pollution, to utilize energy and resources effectively,
and to reduce and dispose of waste products in a responsible
manner.
- At every stage, from planning, development, design, procurement
and production to sales, logistics, use, recycling and disposal,
we offer products and services that have minimal environmental
impact and give maximum consideration to safety.
- Through environmental education, we strive to raise awareness
of all our employees in order to develop a social viewpoint that
enables them to conduct environmental activities under their
own responsibility.
- In every country and region where we conduct our business,
we maintain close ties with the local communities and we contribute
to society by publicizing our activities and assisting environmental
conservation activities.
