We Endeavor to Embrace Incremental Changes
ESG
NHN is committed to improving energy efficiency and minimizing the environmental impact from its business practices company-wide.
Eco-Friendly Actions
NHN is committed to fostering eco-consciousness activities among its employees through a wide range of initiatives aimed at promoting environmental stewardship in daily practices. One of our key endeavors involves transitioning office supplies and amenities used by NHN members to eco-friendly and reusable items contributing to a sustainable workplace environment. Additionally, our "Energy Usage Data Sharing" campaign fosters transparency and accountability by disseminating internal energy consumption data company-wide. Through our social contribution campaign, 'Little Action,' NHN offers accessible eco-friendly activities, including refill stations, plastic upcycling initiatives, and the Carbon Bucket Challenge. These initiatives empower every member to play a role in reducing our environmental footprint. NHN is also leading eco-friendly initiatives by partnering with ‘WincL,’ a blockchain-based carbon emission trading platform where we purchase voluntary carbon credits and engage in campaigns to offset greenhouse gas emissions, extending our commitment to environmental sustainability beyond our workforce to include our customers.
