Sustainability promotion system
The Company established the Sustainability Strategy Meeting to study and implement a sustainability strategy to resolve materiality issues and to realize a sustainable society. In tandem with this, we established four committees in critical areas within the meeting, namely the Risk and Opportunity Management Committee, Human Rights Committee, DE&I Committee, and Environmental Committee, and appointed a chairperson and secretariat for each.
The Sustainability Strategy Meeting consists primarily of assistant general managers of each business division and representatives of each strategy office. This meeting consolidates each of the committees and conducts their overall management, and then reports on their conditions to the President and General Managers Meeting. The Sustainability Strategy Meeting, which includes these four committees, will perform as the leader of the Company’s sustainability strategy, and actively engage in discussions with new perspectives and driving the promotion of sustainability.
