We dont just like looking after insides at Yakult. We like the outside too. Everything outside. Our whole living environment. So when we do things, and plan things, environmental issues are always top of the list. It keeps us happy.
Its a great way for us to keep improving by reducing and recycling waste and minimising the use of non-renewable resources. It also helps us keep pollution levels, whether it be through distribution, production, or in the office, to as little as possible. We like little.
So, whos really responsible for keeping our environment alive and well? All of us. Everyone from Sumiya Hori, our Chief Executive (hes the one who makes all the big decisions), to directors, managers and all staff. In the UK we've all done our bit to ensure that we're ISO 14001 compliant (for environmental management). Each person does their bit, and that makes a lot of good bits indeed.
And it doesnt end there. We realise that there is often a better way to care for the environment. So we are always on the look-out for ways to improve what we do. If that means we need to change things, then thats what we do.
