Social Contribution

The 1-day work study program offers participants the opportunity to experience what it is like to work on a semiconductor manufacturing equipment development project and what it is like to work as an engineer. In addition, we provide opportunities to get to know the atmosphere of the workplace through roundtable discussions with senior employees.

Tokyo Seimitsu is participating in Future College, a program organized by “SEMI FREAKS,” a semiconductor industry research website for students operated by SEMI Japan. Among the program’s events, we exhibited at “Future College@SEMICON 2023,” a joint information session for students held as part of “SEMICON Japan 2023.” In order to make many students aware of the semiconductor-related industry and increase their aspirations for excellent students, we held an information session in cooperation with other semiconductor industry companies that also participated. We will continue to work on activities to deepen understanding of semiconductor manufacturing for university students and graduate students who are interested in the semiconductor industry.

The Metrology Center provides a place for university students, high school students, and local companies to learn how measurement technologies contribute to manufacturing through our world-class products.

In this sort of “adoption” program, local residents and private companies carry out beautification activities for roads, parks, or other public facilities, “caring for these as if their own children,” while receiving tools, materials, and support from the local governments with jurisdiction over the facilities. Since 2004, the Hachioji Plant has implemented such activities into a part of the curriculum for new employee group education every year, focusing on the rotary on the east side of JR Kita-Hachioji Station. In fiscal 2023, program activities were held three times with 86 people participating.

The Tsuchiura Plant joins other companies near Nakanuki Park for weekly cleanups in and around the park. Since 2006, we have also carried out cleanups on our own across our divisions in turn every Monday. In fiscal 2023, we did so 50 times with participation by a total of 100 employees. Over the years of these cleanup activities, awareness has increased among the local community. Streets around the park that had been covered in litter have improved markedly. We will continue our activities to help beautify public parks and improve public manners.

In March 2016, the Tsuchiura Plant signed the “Tsuchiura Eco-Partner Agreement,” which takes a leading role in reducing greenhouse gas emissions and waste in the area around the city of Tsuchiura. The Agreement promotes the efficient use of electricity and other energy as well as the reduction of garbage in business activities, and the initiatives to raise awareness of environmental conservation in the local community.
