[Asia Economy Reporter Dongwoo Lee] CJ Logistics has announced that it has surpassed 20,000 hours of employee social contribution activities for five consecutive years, even in the untact era. This year, social contribution activities will focus on eco-friendly campaigns to practice ESG (Environmental, Social, and Governance) management.

On the 15th, CJ Logistics revealed its 2021 social contribution plan centered on ontact and eco-friendly initiatives. In particular, as the importance of eco-friendly indicators among ESG evaluation criteria grows, the company plans to expand related programs. Through non-face-to-face ontact talent donations, it aims to exceed 20,000 cumulative hours of employee social contribution activities for five consecutive years.

Considering the increase in single-use plastic after COVID-19, CJ Logistics has been conducting an upcycling project since last year that produces eco-friendly vests using PET bottles. Uniforms will be distributed to delivery drivers and field workers in April.

Starting in the second quarter, the company will run a Green Map campaign by collecting reports via SNS on ‘green-deprived areas,’ where forest space is relatively scarce, targeting employees and local children, and creating urban forests in those areas.

Through ontact volunteer activities amid the COVID-19 pandemic last year, CJ Logistics recorded a cumulative 22,097 hours of employee social contribution activities, surpassing 20,000 hours for four consecutive years. This year, it will continue donations through ontact methods such as ‘foreign language fairy tale book storytelling’ and ‘DIY solar lanterns.’

The company also strives to prevent traffic accidents in local communities. CJ Logistics enhances local safety awareness through the ‘Cargo Truck Traffic Accident Zero Campaign,’ which attaches reflective strips to cargo trucks, and the ‘Children Traffic Accident Zero Campaign,’ which places yellow footprints at crosswalks near logistics centers and elementary schools.

A CJ Logistics official stated, “This year as well, we will lead sustainable management through eco-friendly campaigns for green logistics practice and ontact volunteer activities.”
