June 5th is “World Environment Day” designated by the United Nations. Olympus has designated June of every year as “Olympus Environment Month” and has been conducting activities to raise environmental awareness for the past 40 years. In fiscal 2022, Olympus held “Olympus Environmental Day” to improve the efficiency of activities and to be more conscious of cooperation with society. With the aim of raising environmental awareness among employees, we conducted global environmental e-learning programs, held events to reduce waste and food loss and promote recycling in each region and site, and conducted neighborhood cleanup activities.
In addition, our domestic sites have been continuously contributing to environmental conservation activities of NGOs and NPOs by collecting unneeded books, CDs, DVDs, and other items, selling them to outside vendors, and donating the funds. In fiscal 2022, a total of 150,000 yen, including a matching gift from the company, was donated to The Japan Fund for Global Environment operated by the Environmental Restoration and Conservation Agency.
