Our Board of Directors recognizes that addressing issues related to sustainability (such as consideration for global environmental issues such as climate change, respect for human rights, consideration for the health and working environment of employees, fair and appropriate treatment of employees, fair and appropriate transactions with business partners, and crisis management for natural disasters) is an important management issue that not only reduces risk but also leads to profit opportunities. We have established the Sustainability Committee to promote activities related to sustainability (ESG activities). Based on the basic policy formulated by the Board of Directors, the Sustainability Committee discusses important issues related to the Group’s sustainability, promotes ESG activities, periodically evaluates the performance of ESG activities, and reports to the Board of Directors on the results of the Committee’s discussions and evaluations.
