Materiality｜Sustainability / ESG

Process of formulation

Step1

Considered a wide range of long-term social issues linked to Our business and activities.

We examined the long-term outlook, including global environmental and social issues, using international guidelines such as the GRI Standards, SASB Standards, and ISO 26000, as well as information from external consulting firms, to identify social issues that are highly relevant to our business.

Step2

Identified factors that are important to us and our stakeholders.

Based on the social issues identified in STEP 1, ESG Committee members and others identified important factors based on two criteria: importance to the company and importance to stakeholders.

Step3

Identified Materiality, set goals and KPIs

The results of STEP 1 and 2 are discussed by the ESG Committee (Chairman: President & CEO), and targets and KPIs are determined, and submitted to and reported by the Board of Directors.
