ISO14001

Nissan Shatai is aiming to be a company which can co-exist in harmony with society, and we are actively tackling environmental activities. We are aware of the importance of our social responsibility as a company with respect to the environment, and we have acquired accreditation for ISO14001, which is the international standard for environmental management.

Acquisition of accreditation

ISO14001 accreditation has been acquired for Nissan Shatai companywide. Initially, accreditation was acquired individually in the production division and the product development division, but in FY2010 we acquired accreditation in a form that integrated these two accreditations and in FY2011 the integration was expanded to Nissan Shatai Kyushu as well.
In this way, we are building consistent environmental management systems for the entire group and organizationally promoting sustained environmental impact reduction activities, rather than building individual systems with respect to the production bases and the product development process.

Environmental Education

As presented in our environmental policies, we believe that “fostering a mindset of valuing the environment in each and every employee” is most important in order to continue being an environmentally-friendly company. For that reason, Nissan Shatai is carrying out the following kinds of initiatives.

Education and training

Nissan Shatai and Nissan Shatai Kyushu conduct environmental education for all of their employees every year.

Environmental management systems education

We conduct education every year in order for our employees to understand the content of our environmental management systems and perceive their importance. Regarding the environmental policies of the company, the environmental work plan and the role of each division, etc., at the beginning of the fiscal year the Environmental Management Administrator implements manager education, and each manager implements education for the section employees in his/her own division.

Special environmental education

With respect to employees carrying out operations in facilities which could have a marked impact on the environment through air pollution and water contamination, etc., we conduct education to make them perceive the importance of environmental management in their work, in order to raise their awareness.

Environmental accident response training

Departments that use facilities that have the potential to significantly impact the environment conduct training once a year in the event of an accident or emergency. This training is designed to minimize damage and prevent spills outside the company in the event of an accident.
