We have been carrying out forestation activities since 2020 by designating a portion of the forest owned by Sanuki City where our Shido Plant is located as \u201cTadano Forest of Learning\u201d and providing employees with opportunities to learn and interact with nature. The seventh such event held this April featured also a health walking tour in addition to a regular forestation activity as 51 Tadano employees and their families, including organizing staff took part in the event.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

 In the first half of the program, we focused on forestation. As part of this, some participants prepared the planting area, carefully tending to the trees and the surrounding soil to ensure they would grow large, while the others worked on maintaining the walking paths, using scissors, sickles to trim branches and hoes to level the ground. Thanks to the large number of enthusiastic participants, we were able to complete the extensive maintenance work.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

After the forest maintenance work, participants used a wildlife collection app to search for forest plants, animals, insects, etc. The app uses AI to identify species when photographed with a smartphone. The recorded information will be compiled and added to the digital “Tadano Forest Wildlife Collection”, which the event organizers began creating at the previous event. This time, information on spring species will be added to that of autumn collected during the last event, making the collection even more comprehensive.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In the second half of the program, the participants walked a 2.8-kilometer pilgrimage route from the Forest of Learning to the lunch location, enjoying pleasant conversations with family and colleagues amidst the gentle spring weather and falling cherry blossoms, the pleasant aroma of fresh greenery, and the comforting light.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

 For lunch, everyone enjoyed a meal of udon noodles, a local specialty. The pleasant fatigue after working and walking in the forest, combined with the enjoyable company of colleagues and family, created the perfect conditions for savoring the meal. Many participants expressed great satisfaction and a desire to participate again, suggesting that the interaction through the meal had a synergistic effect on both physical and mental health.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Tadano will continue to value the connection between its employees and nature, striving to balance environmental considerations with employee health promotion through enjoyable events. By continuing these efforts, we aim to raise the environmental and health awareness of each employee and promote the creation of a sustainable and comfortable work environment.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
