Strengthening Management of Employee Welfare Facilities
Following an incidence of kerosene leakage at an employee welfare facility during FY2002, Toyota inspected and confirmed the storage and management conditions of oil tanks at facilities connected to employee dormitories, company housing, and recreation facilities under direct management of the company. This resulted in implementation of counter-measures to prevent recurrence in 66 locations with similar facilities, such as reviewing daily management items, creating a clarified contact system, and training in procedures to be followed in the event of an abnormality.
 
Audits at Waste Collection and Removal Companies
Since 1996, Toyota has been conducting audits of 79 intermediate waste processing companies to verify the status of storage and processing of waste materials, etc., and appropriate processing and disposal procedures. In FY2002, auditing teams from plants subcontracting the removal of waste to a total of 82 waste collection and removal companies conducted on-site audits at the companies to verify the details of the collection and removal permits, operations details and status of safety management, etc., as well as point out any areas of concern and investigate improvement measures.
In follow-up audits at the end of the fiscal year, Toyota confirmed that there was a marked improvement in employee training and skills, issues identified the previous year. Toyota plans to continue such audits to support further improvements at waste collection and removal companies.
