Hyundai Honored with 2025 Merit 'Gold' Award for Excellence in Corporate Social Responsibility
Hyundai Motor America (OTC:HYMTF) has been awarded the 2025 Merit 'Gold' Award for Corporate Social Responsibility for its 'Hyundai Hope' initiative focused on community safety. Through partnerships with leading children's hospitals nationwide, the company conducted seven child safety seat events last year, distributing nearly 2,500 car seats and educating over 4,500 families on car seat and pedestrian safety.
The initiative addresses a critical need, as the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration reports that nearly half of car and booster seats are installed incorrectly. Hyundai's U.S. operations, including manufacturing facilities and 850 independent dealers, contribute $20.1 billion annually and 190,000 jobs to the U.S. economy.
Hyundai Motor America (OTC:HYMTF) ha ricevuto il Premio Merit 'Gold' 2025 per la Responsabilità Sociale d'Impresa grazie all'iniziativa 'Hyundai Hope', che si concentra sulla sicurezza della comunità. Attraverso collaborazioni con importanti ospedali pediatrici a livello nazionale, l'azienda ha organizzato sette eventi per la sicurezza dei seggiolini per bambini lo scorso anno, distribuendo quasi 2.500 seggiolini auto e formando oltre 4.500 famiglie sulla sicurezza dei seggiolini e dei pedoni.
L'iniziativa risponde a un bisogno fondamentale, dato che la National Highway Traffic Safety Administration segnala che quasi la metà dei seggiolini per auto e rialzi sono installati in modo errato. Le operazioni statunitensi di Hyundai, comprese le strutture produttive e 850 concessionari indipendenti, contribuiscono con 20,1 miliardi di dollari all'anno e 190.000 posti di lavoro all'economia degli Stati Uniti.

이 이니셔티브는 중요한 필요성을 해결하는데, 미국 고속도로 교통 안전국(NHTSA)에 따르면 거의 절반의 카시트 및 부스터 시트가 잘못 설치되어 있다고 합니다. 현대의 미국 내 사업장은 제조 시설과 850개의 독립 딜러를 포함해 연간 201억 달러와 19만 개의 일자리를 미국 경제에 기여하고 있습니다.
