一般社団法人ＲＰＩＩ Ｊａｐａｎの思い
おはようございます。今日も良い一日をお過ごしくださいませ。
さて今回は当社の思いをお伝えできればと存じます。
当社の思い
当社は、子どもたちから身体的・精神的・社会的発達に必要な遊びの機会を奪うことなく、子どもたちが安全に遊べる環境を整えることに注力している企業です。
そこで当社は、最も子どもの遊ぶ権利を尊重し、子どもの遊びに対する思いに応えている欧州の遊具規格を採用しております。
遊具規格：EN1176／1177は、遊びの中での不可避な事故や怪我が、子どもたちの人生を台無しにするような重症化・後遺症にならないように遊具の中に潜むリスクが研究しつくされた上で、遊びによってもたらされる利益を重視した安全規準となっております。我々はこれらの遊具規格：EN1176／1177の啓発活動を行う組織であると同時に、これらの欧州規格を熟知した遊具点検士の訓練・試験を提供し、点検士資格を認定・認証する英国の遊具検査機関RPIIの事業を日本で代行する団体になります。
より多くの方に試験を受けていただき、遊具点検士の資格を取っていただくことで、子どもにとって遊具が人間性の形成にどれ程の利益をもたらしてくれるか、遊びを通してどれ程多くの能力を身に着けることができるかについて、より理解を深めていただきたい上で、子どもたちの安全を守って頂きたいと思っております。
当社は、これらの事業や活動を通して、日本の子どもたちが遊具を安心して思いっきり楽しめることを切に願う次第であります。
We are the company which does a lot of work on arranging the safe surroundings for children to play without depriving them of the play opportunities necessary for their physical, mental, and social development.
Therefore, we have adopted European playground equipment standards that most respect children's right to play and meet their desire to play.
The EN 1176/1177 playground equipment standards are safety criteria that focus on the benefits of play while ensuring that the risks/hazards inherent in playground equipment have been thoroughly researched to prevent the inevitable accidents and injuries that may ruin children's lives, both severe and permanent.
We are the organization which promotes awareness of these standards: EN1176/1177, and at the same time, we are the Japanese representative of RPII, the UK official body which provides training, examining, accrediting and certificating for play (playground equipment) inspectors who are familiar with these European standards.
Encouraging more people interested in children’s safety to take the examination and become accredited play (playground equipment) inspectors leads to deepening their own understandings of how many benefits are obtained from playground equipment for children’s development as human beings and how many various skills and abilities children can acquire through play.
As a result of that they will be able not only to let children receive the most valuable benefits from play but also to keep children safe. We would like to ask everyone to secure the safety of children.
We sincerely hope that through these projects, services and activities, the children in Japan will be able to enjoy playground equipment to without any anxieties, having as much fun as they possibly can.
