Environmental Initiatives
In 1998, Fuji Soft became the first independent software company in Japan to acquire certification under ISO 14001, the international standard for environmental conservation activities. Guided by our environmental philosophy, which affirms our commitment to protecting the greenery of the Amazon, environmental conservation is a management priority. We take concrete steps to conserve natural resources and continually improve our environmental performance to help ensure that future generations can enjoy the Earth’s natural beauty and resources.

Environmental management system
Fuji Soft has obtained ISO 14001 certification and maintains a sustainability promotion structure and environmental management system (EMS) headed by an environmental officer. The EMS executive manager and EMS team implement energy-saving measures through operational streamlining, ensure compliance with environmental laws and regulations, and prevent accidents and pollution that could damage the environment. In addition, internal EMS auditors plan and report audits to the Environmental Committee. Through these and other efforts, we continue to improve the Company’s environmental performance and contribute to creating a carbon-neutral society.
