Placing the highest priority on compliance in its management, NESIC has long developed in-house management systems and implemented activities to raise awareness.For FY2016, NESIC invited outside lecturers to provide education on the Waste Disposal Act so that its staff would strictly observe the laws by learning about the points to note in the treatment of construction-related waste and about the wide-area recycling designation system*.

① All personnel received general environmental education.

② Activities for both the environment and social contribution were conducted.

③ Cost reduction and quality improvement activities were conducted with them defined as environmental objectives and targets.

* An exceptional program under the Waste Disposal Act that gives manufacturers a qualification to collect and recycle used products with the use of the existing logistical system

Benefits

For FY2016, NESIC carried out internal audits on 28 management sites , and the results were as follows. They were reported to the Environmental Management Administrator and the manage-ment system was improved.

Number of management sites audited:

Satisfactory cases

Minor non-conformance

Opportunities for improve-ment

With regard to waste management, NESIC systematically implemented manifest management, reporting to the governmental sector and on-site checks of waste treatment operators.As a result of these actions, there were no incidents with a significant impact on the environment around its offices and plants, and no cases of the violation of environment-related laws and ordinances.

To provide employees with environmental education, NESIC prepares and implements general environmental education, education on the Waste Disposal Act and several other education programs. Among others, the general environmental education uses NESIC’s education assistance system, called NESIC Learning Management (NLM), to achieve a state in which all the personnel received the education.

In addition, NESIC also provides training for developing internal auditors and education for environmental promotors in a bid to maintain and improve its environmental management system. To ensure that staff are capable of offering customers better proposals on the spot, it mainly encourages workers on site to acquire certification for environmental specialists.

NESIC is introducing EmpoweredOffice* to its Head Office and all its major regional divisions and offices in an effort to cut power consumption. For FY2017/3 as well, power consumption at the offices was lowered, but unit power consumption (i.e. power consumption per staff member) rose around 3% after the increased operation of some facilities following business expansion.

NESIC began introducing hybrid vehicles in FY2008. As of the end of March 2016, it owned 97 hybrid and electric vehicles, which accounted for 64% of the vehicles owned by the company for business purposes, excluding station wagons. It advises all the registered drivers of vehicles for business use to implement green driving, and encourages all its employees to do so as an appropriate way of everyday driving. Automotive equipment with voice guidance was introduced, which is effective not

The Act on Rationalizing Energy Use obliges all cargo owners to rationalize their use of energy of their own accord. NESIC works to increase the efficiency of the operation of vehicles for transport from its material

NESIC has part of its power consumption at its showroom on the 33rd floor of the Head Office building covered by green power generated from solar power. This has helped reduce CO2 emissions by some 7 tons in a year. At the Customers Fair 2016 held at major offices, namely the Kansai Regional Division and the Chubu Regional Office, all the power consumption at the exhibition space was covered by green power. The same applied to the Customers Fair 2017 held at The Prince Park Tower Tokyo in February. They all had the effect of cutting CO2 emissions by almost 7 tons.

NESIC purchases offsetting credits under the J-VER scheme* to reduce part (12 t) of the CO2 emissions from the kitchen for the Head Office canteen.

* A workstyle reform solution that changes workplaces and ways of working to draw out the personnel’s capabilities to the fullest degree

NESIC implements thermal recycling to recycle 94% of its industrial waste.

NESIC used digital multifunctional photocopiers to change paper data into electronic form and implemented paperless operation meetings to drastically reduce photocopying paper and achieve the target set for FY2016.

NESIC is an NEC Group company certified by the Minister of the Environment for the wide-area treatment of industrial waste. It thus contributes to collection and recycling of information and communication equipment manufactured by NEC, such as computers and communication devices.

NESIC offers EmpoweredOffice and many other environmentally-friendly solutions to contribute to the reduction of CO2 emissions and other environmental impacts on the part of customers, thereby improving the global environment.

The NESIC Group Rice Paddy Cultivation Project

Plant Growing Experience

It also works to raise environmental awareness among its staff members in a bid to deepen their understanding of the conservation of biological diversity and to behave independently in consideration of biological diversity at offices and at home alike.

As part of its activities for raising environmental awareness, this campaign was planned as an opportunity for thinking about the mechanism of nature through an experience of growing plants at home and in workplaces that would boost interest in planting.Inviting entries from the entire group, the campaign prepared six different prizes, including the Grand Prix, the Green Curtain Prize and the Kids Challenge Prize. The prizes were presented to 19 entrants.The participants voiced their hopes that the campaign would continue.


As part of the efforts to preserve eco-systems and biological diversity, the NESIC Group Rice Paddy Cultivation Project was launched in FY2012. This fiscal year marked its 5th anniversary.This Rice Paddy Cultivation Project revives fallow rice paddies at Higashitanaka in the Ibaraki Prefecture city of Ishioka to bring back various living species, thereby restoring the ecosystem.This project was designed for NESIC Group employees and their family members as a year-round hands-on nature program. The participants carry out activities from planting to threshing and ecosystem research under the guidance of local experts. (Cumulative total number of participants until FY2016: 790)

For FY2016, the rice variety for sake brewing was changed from Nihombare to Gohyakumangoku, and the project worked to cultivate it. It enjoys cooperation from a local brewer in sake brewing, and this helps advertise the activity. Apart from the rice for sake, it has been cultivating glutinous rice since FY2015. It asks Akebono-so, a facility for providing assistance to people with disabilities, to cut the rice cakes. The product was used to support sufferers of the Kumamoto Earthquake.
