 Fundamental Policies on Environmental Protection and Saftey
An important part of our corporate Philosophy is the Integrated Safety Management System aimed at preserving the environment and ensuring safety at all stages of chemical substance life cycles from development and manufacturing to distribution, use, final consumption, and disposal. In order to ensure the implementation of the Integrated Safety Management System, we have established environmental targets and fundamental practices such as Environmental Protection and the Zero Accident and Zero Occupational Injury policies and have been steadily carrying them out. In addition to our own policies we fully comply with applicable domestic laws and foreign rules and shall also cooperate with related international organizations and NGOs whenever needed.
Our Countermeasures Against Global Warming
In conjunction with the required global effort, we have recognized the importance of the global warming issue and established a company–wide Greenhouse Gas (GHG) task force in 2005. The GHG task force develops and promotes energy saving initiatives and GHG countermeasures across the company. MGC is currently striving to reduce energy consumption to 90% of fiscal 1990 and reduce GHG emissions to less than or equal to 80% by fiscal 2010 as our short-term goal.
