Materiality
Three Priority Themes
We have identified the Environment, Diversity and Inclusion, and Community Contribution as the three priority themes (those with materiality) of our CSR. These themes are closely connected to our existing priority issues of environmental conservation, community contribution, and employment of the disabled.
We have reconfirmed the background and importance of these three themes and have clarified the future direction for scaling up our initiatives on a broader scale. In addition, we will place emphasis on these themes, as we believe they are directly linked to the United Nations’ Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs).
| STEP 1 | Narrow down from social perspective | ||||
| STEP 2 | Assess from business activity perspective | ||||
| STEP 3 | Executives verify suitability | ||||
| STEP 4 | Materiality determined | ||||
| Environment | Because environmental conservation is a duty for our operations, we advocate “consideration for the environment” and “efficient manufacturing processes for environment-friendly manufacturing.” We also maintain the attitude that it is unthinkable for our operational activities not to include environmental conservation activities. | ||||
| Diversity and Inclusion | We believe the combined strength of diverse personnel, including gender, age, and nationality, is the driving force behind corporate growth. Of course, employment of the disabled is also included in this theme. At the same time, we will do our utmost for all these employees by providing personnel training and maintaining a safe and healthy working environment for them. | ||||
| Community Contribution | A good relationship with the community is essential for sustainable business. Therefore, we believe it is important to engage with local communities to gain their trust and appreciation. We will continue to actively participate in local activities, and also provide support for the disadvantaged and for human resource development in the communities we serve. | ||||
The Basic Policy of Our Priority Themes
We further clarified the direction of our CSR activities be setting a basic policy for each of our priority themes. We are fortifying our corporate governance, which we consider the foundation of our CSR.
We believe that firmly addressing these priority issues will generate financial and social value, and enhance our corporate value.
