Panasonic Employees Are Helping Create a Greener Planet

For over 100 years Panasonic employees have been working towards our corporate mission of making the world a better place. We believe in doing work that will create a more sustainable future for our employees, customers and local communities.  

Panasonic’s Sustainability team is focused on finding ways in which we can improve our ecological footprint as an organization and set goals that align with our founder, Konosuke Matsushita’s vision for sustainability.  

As a leading organization in the technology industry, we are always looking for ways to improve our environmental impact and discover new ways to enhance our approach to creating a more sustainable world. A few of our focus areas include -  

• Climate change  

• Renewable energy  

• Waste management and chemical safety  

• Circularity and recycling  

 In celebration of Earth Day on April 22, members of the team share about the importance of their work at Panasonic and how you may be able to support us in furthering our mission to go green.  

“With the many environmental challenges that we now face such as climate change, resource depletion, pollution and decreasing biodiversity, Panasonic needs to play a positive role – especially around technological development – in passing on to future generations the world we enjoy today. I am proud of the way we have leveraged our technological and corporate resources to make our world a more environmentally sustainable place.” David Thompson, Director, Environmental Compliance  

“I feel a strong sense of pride and joyfulness when I explain the kind of work I do to people I meet. I enjoy being able to say that I get to follow my passion for the environment in my everyday job and educate on the topic, because it is not often a career field that people have heard of or considered. We all have a valuable role to play when it comes to impacting the world around us.” Andrea Murphy, Group Manager, Environmental Management 

“Our team makes sure we are doing our part as an organization when it comes to sustainability and tackling environmental issues. We all have an opportunity to make change— whether it be big or small. Turning off the lights in an unoccupied room and recycling properly can make a substantial difference in reversing the effects of climate change. These are things that we can all do.” Rony Khoury, Product Compliance Specialist 

“I spent the earlier parts of my career in non-profit management, public policy research, and business consulting – three very different fields – but I’m able to leverage what I learned in each role here at Panasonic. That’s the best part of working in sustainability – your work touches every part of the business, from global operations to sales and marketing. I spend my time educating others on why sustainability matters to their role, and I never stop learning along the way!” Tina Jeffress, Senior Manager, Sustainability & Energy
