Bangladesh
At overseas locations, we promote initiatives to donate office furniture and equipment to local communities when a project is completed. As an example, in September 2023, the project team for the truss fabrication of the Jamuna Bridge in Bangladesh donated furniture and stationery used at the project to the Sakura Family Home (orphanage). During this initiative, they had the opportunity to learn about the background of the facility, its current challenges, and future prospects from the facility’s operators. They also had the opportunity to deepen interactions with the children living in the facility.
Creating a society where everyone can live together through a combination of business and social contribution
With the aim of realizing a sustainable society, we collaborate with various stakeholders in different areas to provide necessary infrastructure and services. Furthermore, we strive to grow alongside local communities. This is the essence of JFE Engineering’s social coexistence activities.
Our efforts consist of two types of activities: one is through our business operations, and the other involves social contribution activities aimed at solving issues that cannot be fully covered by our business activities.
By advancing both of these activities, we will create a future where everyone can live a vibrant life.
We have incorporated this idea into our slogan, “Creating Together, Living Together.” The logo for our social coexistence activities represents our technology (i.e. business) and smiles that come from it (i.e. social contribution).
