The sustainable development goals (SDGs) are the universal aims adopted by the UN General Assembly in 2015 with the deadline for achievement set at 2030.
Of the 17 goals, the POLA ORBIS Group considers those with high compatibility with business operations to be the most important issues, including "gender equality," "decent work and economic growth," "industry, innovation and infrastructure" and "sustainable cities and communities," and aims to help solve extremely important issues related to the environment.
In concrete terms, we encourage women to pursue entrepreneurial opportunities and help develop local economies through innovation in traditional art and crafts. We will contribute to society by expanding the possibilities through leading-edge technologies and services that draw on women's perspectives. In consideration of the environment, we set and manage goals that cover everything from procurement to disposal.
The POLA ORBIS HOLDINGS CSR Secretariat is at the core
of the POLA ORBIS Group, deliberating objectives and concrete measures with each Group company to promote sustainability activities.
The details of these goals and measures are reviewed and monitored
twice a year by the Group CSR Committee
and are reported to the Group Managerial Meeting.
