Toshiba Group is promoting environmental management
worldwide as a group. There are four pillars upholding our
environmental management: (1) strengthening of the management structure, (2) provision of environmentally conscious products and services, (3) development of environ-mentally conscious manufacturing, sales and processing,
and (4) promotion of communication. We take active measures to promote initiatives focused on these objectives.
The Corporate Environmental Management Office develops
and implements corporate-level, important policy, strategy,
and measures with the approval of senior managers and
makes them fully known to all personnel of the company.
Specifically, Toshiba semiannually convenes the Corporate
Environmental Management Committee, a group-wide
decision-making organization regarding environmental
management chaired by the Corporate Environmental Officer, which consists of executive officers, environment management officers of in-house and key group companies, and
overseas environmental promotion managers of corporate
regional headquarters. Meetings of the Committee make
proposals for environmental measures related to management, technological development, production, and sales,
confirm and follow up on the progress in the Environmental
Action Plan to achieve the Environmental Vision, discuss and
decide the overall policy and plans for environmental management, and make the company-wide policy fully known
to all managers and employees
