Environment-Related Governance and Promotion Structure

We aim to contribute to the realisation of a sustainable society in which everyone can realize a fulfilling life.
Toward realizing the vision, we have established the “Environmental Basic Policy” and are committed to enhancing environment-related initiatives and contributing to the realization of a circular society and decarbonization.

Since April 2022, we have regularly held "Sustainability Committee" meetings chaired by the President and Director. In these meetings, we discuss sustainability plans and objectives as well as communication strategies both within and outside the organization, all at an executive management level.
The "Sustainability Committee" reports on the current status of KPIs. This structure allows us to monitor and control these initiatives effectively.

Matters discussed and reported by the Sustainability Committee are regularly reported to and supervised by the President and Director and the Board of Directors.

In the environmental arena, risks are identified to ensure that business continuity is not affected by delays in response to the introduction of, or changes to, new regulations on climate change and other related issues, and the status of responses is monitored and Group-wide initiatives are implemented. In addition, TCFD initiatives are being used to identify climate change risks, such as large-scale natural disasters related to climate change, and efforts are being made to improve the Group's sustainability in collaboration with the Comprehensive Risk Management Committee.
