NH Investment & Securities Joins NongHyup Group ESG Resource Circulation Campaign

On May 20, NH Investment & Securities announced that it will officially launch the ‘My (NH) Drawer Resource Circulation Campaign’ as part of the ESG (Environmental, Social, and Governance) campaign in the environmental sector of the National Agricultural Cooperative Federation (NongHyup) group. The campaign encourages joint participation by both employees and the company.

This campaign is being carried out in collaboration with E-Circulation Governance, a government-approved non-profit public interest corporation. The program aims to prevent environmental pollution and promote resource circulation by properly separating and disposing of waste electric and electronic products, such as discarded mobile phones, telecommunication devices, and IT equipment left unused in office drawers or at home.

To achieve the campaign’s goals successfully, NH Investment & Securities plans to prioritize the collection and disposal of more than 300 electronic devices—including decommissioned pin pads, IP phones, mobile phones, and telecommunications equipment—mainly from key departments at its headquarters during May. In addition to collecting unused items within the company, employees are also encouraged to bring waste home appliances from their households and dispose of them at any time through the campaign’s website.

The waste electronic devices collected through the campaign will be processed safely to remove hazardous substances at E-Circulation Governance’s eco-friendly modern facilities, and then reborn as recyclable resources. All proceeds generated from resource recycling will be donated to social contribution activities for the underprivileged, such as children’s welfare foundations.

Byungwoon Yoon, CEO of NH Investment & Securities, stated, “Reducing the indiscriminate disposal of electronic devices and creating a cycle where they are recycled as resources is one of the most effective ways to practice carbon neutrality. Moving forward, we will continue to discover ESG campaigns in which employees can easily participate in both daily life and work to respond to the climate crisis and implement eco-friendly management.”
