Environmental Action サッカー賭けサイト
Since the Paris Agreement was implemented in November 2016, moves aimed at realizing carbon-free societies have accelerated across the world; examples include strengthening exhaust regulations for greenhouse gases, increased ESG investments, and growing markets for environmental businesses. At the same time, as the influence of climate change grows more conspicuous, methods of safeguarding social systems have increased in importance.
Consequently, based both on our Corporate Philosophy of “Create Our Future of Dreams” and the environmental policies of the Sumitomo Corporation Group, we have formed an Environmental Action サッカー賭けサイト with three distinct targets.
SCSK is a company that contributes to society through its business サッカー賭けサイト, namely the provision of IT services. As such, we aim to create an affluent society together with our customers.
- To collaborate with customer companies with the aim of contributing to the realization of carbon-free societies
Together with our customers, we intend to develop and establish efficient systems that contribute to reductions in greenhouse gases. - To contribute to the creation of resilient societies that respond to climate change risks
We intend to contribute to the establishment of resilient societal infrastructure, by means of data centers that can be used as disaster recovery bases and the utilization of the latest technologies. - To realize sustainable corporate サッカー賭けサイト that take the environment into consideration
Through the implementation of energy savings and the use of renewable energy sources, we intend to minimize the greenhouse gases emitted as a consequence of our business サッカー賭けサイト.
Environmental サッカー賭けサイト Promotion Framework
The SCSK Group has acquired ISO 14001 environmental サッカー賭けサイト system standard certification.
An environmental サッカー賭けサイト promotion structure, in which the whole Group comes together as one, has been built under the President and the Executive Vice President.
Environmental preservation サッカー賭けサイト that are based on “environmental objectives, goals and indices” are being promoted continuously and systematically.
The implementation status of each plan is evaluated annually by an audit team and the results are reported to サッカー賭けサイト, which then undertakes to revise the activities as required. Through continuous improvement, we are aiming to make further contributions to environmental preservation and footprint reduction.

PDCA Cycle-based Efforts
We recognize that one of our core societal missions is to improve society by reducing environmental burden and facilitating adaptations to environmental changes through our business サッカー賭けサイト.
In order to strengthen our environmental activities into those that are highly viable, all those involved, from サッカー賭けサイト to employees in the field, follow the PDCA (plan-do-check-act) cycle to enable ongoing improvements.
In executing the PDCA cycle, each Group company and internal division “plan” by formulating their respective environmental action plan on the basis of the Sumitomo Shoji Group’s environmental policy, and “do” by executing the plan. The auditing division carries out the “check” by evaluating the status of operation as needed. After receiving a report of the results of the evaluation, サッカー賭けサイト takes “action” by reflecting results and revising the environmental サッカー賭けサイト system.
The SCSK Group PDCA Cycle
