Clarion Tohoku Office invites schoolboys and students from elementary schools to universities, to visit the factory, and actively supports their studies, as part of its community contribution. In fiscal 2005, 100 junior high-school students from Koriyama-shi, Fukushima Pref. took part in the “work-experience tours.” It also invites groups in the neighboring community to such tours. These activities enable us to deepen the bonds with the local communities.
