NH Nonghyup Life Practices ESG Activities in Daily Life on Environment Day
June Leftover Reduction Campaign Launched, Mask Patch Production
[Asia Economy Reporter Ki Ha-young] NH Nonghyup Life Insurance is taking action to practice ESG (Environment, Social, Governance) in daily life in celebration of World Environment Day on the 5th.
NH Nonghyup Life Insurance announced on the 3rd that it will participate in the June campaign to reduce food waste in cafeterias, conducted at the Nonghyup group level. The amount of daily food waste will be posted in front of the cafeteria to encourage employee participation.
In addition, to naturally promote and inspire commitment to the 'Let's Try ESG' campaign conducted by Nonghyup Financial Group, mask patches were produced. The design includes NH Nonghyup Life Insurance’s character Kori along with four action items: ▲Let's Try Social Contribution ▲Let's Try Eco-friendly Activities ▲Let's Try Carbon Emission Reduction ▲Let's Try Sharing and Donation.
Furthermore, employees are introduced to the 'Carbon Point System' organized by the Ministry of Environment and encouraged to join the 'Let's Try Carbon Emission Reduction' initiative. The Carbon Point System is a program that awards carbon points based on reductions in energy usage such as electricity, water, and city gas. Incentives are provided within a maximum of 2 KRW per carbon point.
Methods to practice ESG in daily life are also shared through YouTube and SNS (blogs, Facebook, Instagram). ESG officers and employees appear to introduce the ESG practices they personally follow. Participation is encouraged through easily applicable methods such as ▲reducing disposable cup use and using tumblers ▲reducing plastic use and using dishes and containers ▲plogging (picking up trash while jogging).
