Partnerships with External Organizations and NGOs
In order to respond appropriately to environmental and energy issues and to build a recycling-oriented society, it is necessary that businesses, governments, academia, and citizens go beyond the limits of their respective domains, and think and act in the best interests of our future generations. Nippon Steel is cooperating with various organizations in local and international communities on behalf of environmental activities. We also have a volunteer leave system for employees who wish to participate in such activities.
