Together with the Community
We engage in various social contribution activities in order to coexist harmoniously with society, our global community and nature ("Living Together").
CSR Briefing Sessions
As part of our stakeholder engagement activity, we organize CSR briefing sessions every two years for government officials of Mie Prefecture and Tamaki Town, representatives of the local communities, and suppliers. During the briefing session, participants are updated on the plant's CSR, environmental, and occupational safety initiatives and afterwards are given a tour of the plant.
Participation in Biotope Restoration Activities
We have concluded an agreement with the "Sugashi Arita Sada-oki Environmental Conservation Society," an environmental conservation group, concerning the conservation and restoration of Satochi-satoyama areas, and is carrying out biotope restoration activities. As a result of activities such as weeding and thinning of wetland area that was previously used for rice paddies, planting greenery, and maintaining waterways, the inhabitation of rare animals and plants has been confirmed. In parallel with the biotope restoration, we also support observation events for children to learn about nature.
Environmental Classes for Kids' ISO 14000 Program
Mie Prefecture is promoting the Kids' ISO 14000 Program (Primary Level) for elementary school students in order to raise environmental awareness through energy conservation activities at home. Designed to provide hands-on environmental learning opportunities, the program is implemented under the prefecture's basic environmental plan. We have been supporting this program and conducting environmental classes at elementary schools in Tamaki since 2005.
Cleanup Activity at Tamaru Castle Ruins
We team up with the labor union to participate in cleanup events at the Tamaru Castle Ruins organized by Tamaki Town every spring and fall. Designed to get everyone in the community involved in preserving and nurturing Tamaki Town's historical and cultural heritage, the event brings local organizations and companies together to work on mowing the grounds and cleaning up the site.
Year-end Mutual Aid Fundraising
As part of our community contribution activities, employees conduct a year-end mutual aid fundraising activity and donate the money they've collected to the Tamaki Town's Social Welfare Council every year.
Hosting Kyocera Festival
We hold the Kyocera Festival every summer, inviting local residents, suppliers, employees and their families. The festival features a host of popular booths and events, including a welfare bazaar, the Struck-Out pitching game, Fuwa-Fuwa Dome trampoline for kids, as well as a dynamic Yosakoi dance performed by Miyabi, a Yosakoi dance club from Kogakkan University. The fun-filled summer festival ends with a spectacular fireworks display, which has become an annual summer tradition.
Participating in the Tamaki Town Industrial Fair
We exhibit our products in a booth at the "Tamaki Eeyan-Matsuri," Tamaki Town's annual industrial fair aimed at promoting local industries, in order to help visitors better understand our environmentally friendly products. Visitors to the booth can have their photo taken with a digital camera, print it out with our MFP, and take home an original calendar featuring their photo.
