Internal Awareness and Promotion Activities
The ANA Trading Group conducts in-house workshops and e-learning in order for each employee to understand the materiality identified through impact assessments, view it as their to take as something to take personal ownership of them, and connect it to our business activities. We introduce topics related to the environment and human rights issues occurring in the world, as well as business activities related to materiality that business divisions and group companies are working on, in internal media such as in-house newsletters, and use this to generate ideas.
