SUSTAINABILITY
Participation in Global Initiatives
Signature to the United Nations Global Compact
Eagle Industry Co., Ltd. and its group companies (hereinafter referred to as “our group”) have signed the United Nations Global Compact (UNGC) and registered as a participating company as of January 9, 2024. At the same time, we have joined the Global Compact Network Japan, a local network in Japan.
The UNGC is the world’s largest sustainability initiative, bringing together the United Nations and the private sector (companies and organizations) to build a healthy global society. It is also a voluntary initiative for companies and organizations to act as good corporate citizens and achieve sustainable growth by exercising responsible and creative leadership.
Based on this signature, our group will support the 10 principles proposed by UNGC, which consist of the four areas of “human rights,” “labor,” “environment,” and “anti-corruption,” and will strive to conduct business activities with even higher ethical standards and fulfill our social responsibility as a corporation.
