Information on our Environmental, Social and Governance (ESG) initiatives
Social
The Kyuden Group is steadily implementing initiatives towards its mission of achieving economic value alongside social value creation. It provides safe, dependable and efficient supplies of electricity to its customers through efficient use of facilities and fair procurement of high-quality materials, while giving top priority to safety and health.
The company also set up the Kyuden Mirai Foundation in May 2016 with the intention of strengthening its activities in contributing to local needs and responding to the expectations of local communities. This foundation participates in environmental activities and the nurturing of the future generation. For instance, it supports environmental preservation activities in the Bougatsuru wetlands in the Kita-Kuju mountain range along with local communities, utilizes its water conservation forest for educational activities, and supports local organizations in their activities to support the future generation.
In addition, the company strives to create a workplace that respects human rights and allows its employees to flourish. To further improve awareness for the respect of human rights, the company holds training events regarding human rights and social integration and promotes initiatives for the support of childcare and a stronger work life balance.
