FUJITSU
Global Partnership
On World Cleanup Day, hundreds of our employees volunteered, clearing more than 890 kilos of rubbish. The clean-up team in Costa Rica also planted 200 trees. We implemented a plastic waste management strategy which is already having a significant impact on the amount of waste that our office produce. In Oceania, the E-Waste initiative collected 650 kilos of electronic waste for recycling. The Eco-Tour took part in a beach clean in Tsushima, working with the local community.
In total our people volunteered over 800,000 hours of their time to global causes.
"We in Fujitsu have a long history of supporting social and environmental issues, it's embedded in our business culture and the commitment to enabling the Sustainable Development Goals is part of our purpose. The Eco Tour is a great way for employees from diverse backgrounds, cultures, countries and skills to get together and contribute. As well as the direct volunteering activity, we worked with local communities and NGOs in an Ideathon, to look at how our digital skills can enable a better future. What we aim for is a lasting legacy that Fujitsu, our employees, their families and the communities we live and work in can all contribute to a better world and society."
