Compliance Room

In July 2019, we established the "Compliance Room" on our internal information portal to raise compliance awareness. We post violation cases, four-frame comics, and blogs, and update the latest internal and external cases and disseminate them throughout the Group.

Compliance Web Learning

In November 2019, the "Compliance Web Learning" was held for our group employees to help them acquire knowledge about compliance and to identify problems in the workplace. More than 10,000 employees in the Group took the course.

Compliance Book

In accordance with the "Compliance Code of Conduct" newly established in November 2019, we published the latest version of our Compliance Book at the end of January 2020, which describes specific compliance standards.

Our group's Compliance Code of Conduct stipulates that all forms of corruption must be prevented in Japan and overseas. Furthermore, we have established basic rules and systems to be observed in the prevention of bribery, and in FY2019 we established the "Rules for the Prevention of Bribery" with the aim of preventing violations of laws and regulations in each country that prohibit bribery, such as the OECD convention and the FCPA (Foreign Corrupt Practices Act). We regard anticorruption as a particularly important issue for compliance at overseas sites, and are raising awareness of the importance of specific preventive measures.

Our group fulfills its corporate social responsibility by paying taxes in a proper manner and complying with all applicable tax laws of each country and international rules, as stipulated in the "Group Tax Regulations" "Group Tax Practices Guide."
