To date, NE India has carried out a variety of social contribution activities such as donating relief aid to areas affected by floods and constructing and donating washroom facilities for schools. In addition, the company has been examining activities in which its employees can participate and "work up a good sweat."
Based on suggestions from employees, the company has designated the fifth Saturdays of the month, which occur several times each year, as a "day for activities," and it started implementing the activities on a company-wide basis in June. Employees are able to participate in the activities as long as doing so does not interfere with their ordinary operations, and the company has introduced a support system to make it easier for employees to participate. The company's main branches have been holding discussions, and its employees have been independently planning the content of activities. As a result, about 80% of all employees participated in activities on the fifth Saturdays of June and August.
