All group companies are working to continuously enhance environmental performance and are focussing their energies on the development of environmental management systems. At Yazaki, this also includes Health and Safety topics as well as Design for Environment. Health & Safety Workplace health and safety, phrased in the fifth fundamental management policy, is also a top-priority management issue. The creation of a safe and healthy workplace where one can work with peace of mind is the wish of all employees and the responsibility of the employer. In addition to observing all applicable laws and regulations, Yazaki continually implements improvements in workplace environments and health management. The health and safety activities adopted by senior management at each site are implemented systematically with the cooperation of all personnel involved. Design for Environment Environmental performance in the automotive industry is becoming ever more important. In order to ensure that these goals are met, it is necessary to consider environmental performance at an early stage of the design process. New vehicle programmes have several important targets for environmental product design: Improving reusability, recyclability, and recoverability to minimize impact on the end-of-life process Reducing substances of concern to eliminate risk to human health and the environment Increasing fuel efficiency in order to provide vehicles with lower emission levels A balance is necessary if optimal environmental performance is to be achieved. The environmental impact of various life cycle stages of a product, from the raw material through to end-of-life treatment, must be considered. To promote and improve environmental product design, Yazaki Europe Limited has implemented Design for Environment (DfE) guidelines, which enable the engineer to assess the environmental performance of future products, or to evaluate the impact on the environmental of proposed design changes. Highest importance is given to several EU directives and regulations affecting the automotive industry. Some are product specific, whereas others are generic and are applicable across all sectors. Mandatory measures are compliance with environmental legislation and avoidance of substances of concern, material marking and recyclates. Yazaki Corporation views mandatory legislation as a minimum standard of achievement, and always tries to surpass the requirements set by the government.
