Benesse Group Environmental Policy
In August 2011 Benesse Holdings drafted the Benesse Group Environmental Policy, which reaffirms the importance of addressing environmental issues as a management priority. Guided by this policy, Benesse Holdings will implement Group-wide measures to reduce the Group’s environmental impact, while enhancing environmental activities so that they have a greater impact on society and the local community by actively promoting these activities through its core business. Efforts will be concentrated particularly on environmental education, which ties in closely with its core business.
Promotion Framework
The President has final responsibility for Benesse Corporation's promotion of the Benesse Group Environmental Policy. He is assisted by the Environmental Officer and an Management Committee (HMC), which serves an advisory function. The Environmental Action Office acts as the secretariat for overall environmental activities, while the directors of each division and department directly serve as Implementation Managers for their respective organizations. Environmental Managers in each business division and department execute the policies, and every employee in the Benesse Group, including temporary and part-time workers, participates in environmental initiatives.
