Accordingly, we have installed AEDs at all our bases in Japan. An AED is a device that delivers an electric shock to a heart that has been determined to be in cardiac arrest to restore its natural functions and return it to a normal state. The chances of resuscitating a patient in cardiac arrest increase when life-saving measures are administrated as quickly as possible. Therefore, installing AEDs at more locations enhances the life-saving capabilities in the community.<\/p>\r\n                <p class=\"mgn-t1em\">In addition to being available for use by employees and visitors, we intend to make these AEDs accessible to everyone in the event an emergency occurs in the vicinity of our facilities. We will continue to contribute to the local community by protecting the safety of local residents and creating an environment in which they can live with peace of mind.<\/p>\r\n              <\/div>\r\n            <\/div>\r\n          <\/div>\r\n\r\n          <div class=\"pdg-t120\">\r\n            <h3 class=\"title--border-lb flex flex_ac show lazy\">Blood Donations<\/h3>\r\n            <div class=\"flex_pc flex_afs flex_jsb\">\r\n              <img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/adop-mjc-test.com\/wp-content\/themes\/adop-mjc\/img\/csr\/community_image2.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"csr-under__image show lazy\">\r\n              <div class=\"csr-under__text font-sp14 show lazy\">\r\n                <p>Aomori Factory, Aomori Matsuzaki Factory, and Oita Technology Laboratory regularly hold group blood drives for employees every year by inviting a blood donation bus to our facilities so that employees can donate blood on board.<\/p>\r\n                <p class=\"mgn-t1em\">As the birth rate declines and the population becomes older, the number of potential blood donors is falling. Nevertheless, the demand for blood in medical settings is rising. To save the lives of patients requiring blood transfusions for medical treatments, surgeries, and other reasons, we conduct ongoing blood drives at each of our bases. This leads to each employee turning their awareness and actions into contributions to the local community.<\/p>\r\n              <\/div>\r\n            <\/div>\r\n          <\/div>\r\n\r\n\r\n          <div class=\"pdg-t170\">\r\n            <h2 class=\"title--hyphen show lazy\">Conserving the Local Environment<\/h2>\r\n\r\n            <h3 class=\"title--border-lb flex flex_ac show lazy\">Community Cleanups<\/h3>\r\n            <div class=\"flex_pc flex_afs flex_jsb\">\r\n              <img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/adop-mjc-test.com\/wp-content\/themes\/adop-mjc\/img\/csr\/community_image12.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"csr-under__image show lazy\">\r\n              <div class=\"csr-under__text font-sp14 show lazy\">\r\n                <p>We believe that environmental conservation in the communities where we operate is essential for sustainable business growth.

In addition to regularly cleaning roads, ditches, shrubbery, and other spaces around our facilities every year, we also participate in cleanup activities organized by the city. We have established Environmental Committee at each of our bases.<\/p>\r\n                <p class=\"mgn-t1em\">Led primarily by employees belonging to the green implementation committees, one of the organizations within the environmental committees, we have been carrying out cleanup activities called \u201cOperation No Trash\u201d continuously since 2005.
