T.A.O. Bangkok Corporation Ltd commonly celebrates the new coming year with the volunteer activities to create awareness of sharing and doing volunteers in return to the society for the environment. Due to the increasing amount of plastic waste more and more every day, we initiated “T.A.O. Go Green Challenge” Project to encourage employees to help reduce plastic waste problems and stop using plastic eventually. We would like to prolong this project with the volunteer activity by collecting the garbage at the mangrove forest conservation area, which location is not far from our office.
In the morning T.A.O. Staff and the management team traveled to Mangrove Forest Resources 2 at Bang Ya Praek, Samutsakhon. Started with attending the lecture on the importance of the mangrove forest ecosystem by the staff of the Research center. After the lecture, the employees led by the executives collected the garbage in the mangrove area to help restore the ecosystem of mangrove forests. The mangrove forests are the important natural resources that help prevent erosion of the coast and also the source of aquatic animals. From this activity, T.A.O. could collect totally 658 kilograms of garbage from the mangrove forest.
The party was held in the evening. This is to celebrate and bring the happiness to employees who worked intently all through the year. Under the theme of “Sport’s Night”, all employees were dressed up in various types of athletes. There was a reward for the best costume of all. In addition, there’re more awards for the employees who well participated the company’s activities as the followings:
- 6 winning, 8 runner-up prizes for the outstanding participants from T.A.O. Go Green Challenge Project, and 10 special prizes for the truly hearted-green people
- 6 prizes for the winner and the second runner-up of 5S program (sort, set in order, Shine, Standardize, and Sustain of Kaizen). They went to the Marketing Accounting, Administrative, Quality control, Warehouse, and Technical Maintenance Departments, respectively.
The last but not least, which is the Lucky Draw of the year – every single employee would get the prize back home. The grand prize for this year was 40-inch Digital TV and other special prizes such as the grill set with Shabu pot, Rice cooker, Thermos, and etc.
The event was fulfilled with joy and smiles of the executives and staff at Ton Toei Restaurant on 21st December 2018.
