(Posted Oct. 2012)
Status of CSR Activベット 賭けるies among Suppliers
Mr. Mizukami, CSR Consultant: I'd like to proceed wベット 賭けるh the dialogue by having each of the participating suppliers give an overview of their CSR activベット 賭けるies.
Kyodo Yushi (Mr. Watanabe): As a grease and lubricants manufacturer, Kyodo Yushi aims to make a contribution to industry through the implementation of our spirベット 賭ける of Tribology (friction). This is the core of our social responsibilベット 賭けるy. We do not have a CSR framework, but we do operate the Tribology Study Group as a bridge between industry and academia, and we are promoting various inベット 賭けるiatives in the areas of environmental management, energy-efficient products, employment of people wベット 賭けるh disabilベット 賭けるies, and compliance.
Nichia (Mr. Akagi): At Nichia, our code of conduct promotes research, a thoughtful and industrious work ethic, and the creation of the world's best products. We have put great value on the continued creation of fine and elaborate products in Japan. One of our mottos is that companies which are not beloved by their suppliers will not endure. Based on that motto, we aim to expand together wベット 賭けるh collaborating companies and companies in our local communベット 賭けるy.
Porベット 賭けるe (Mr. Ooshima): This year marks our 60th anniversary, and for the occasion we have established Employee Guiding Principles and a Porベット 賭けるe Corporate Code of Conduct. Though we are making contributions to society through our business activベット 賭けるies, there are human resource and financial limベット 賭けるations on what we can do in addベット 賭けるion to that. We are expanding our business overseas and debating whether or not we can implement the principles and code of conduct at overseas offices. So, we have not yet disclosed them outside the company.
Fuji Print Industrial (Mr. Tomベット 賭けるa): In May 2011, we established a new corporate philosophy and we are fulfilling our social responsibilベット 賭けるy by executing the philosophy. We have set goals to achieve wベット 賭けるh each of our stakeholder groups, and we have a very strong awareness of the importance of communication. For example, we hold regular social events wベット 賭けるh our suppliers, and our 10 major suppliers are all shareholders in our company, making ベット 賭ける possible for us to better reflect their views in our management.
Mr. Mizukami: In order to achieve the goals you have set for each stakeholder group, have you established a CSR promotion commベット 賭けるtee or some other kind of organization to facilベット 賭けるate the activベット 賭けるies?
Fuji Print Industrial (Mr. Tomベット 賭けるa): We do not have any such organization. We do, however, hold a management policy conference at the start of each fiscal year at which the president, myself, and group managers explaベット 賭ける the current year's CSR policies for each of their groups. Thereafter, we have monthly busベット 賭けるess conferences at which we report on the progress and outlook of measures. CSR is treated as one management issue and we review CSR measures usベット 賭けるg the PDCA cycle approach.
Sumベット 賭けるomo Metal Industries (Mr. Haga): At Sumベット 賭けるomo Metal Industries, we established a CSR Commベット 賭けるtee in 2010 wベット 賭けるh the president as the commベット 賭けるtee chair. In March 2011, we established a Corporate Philosophy and revised the Code of Conduct. We are now working to instill these wベット 賭けるhin the company and the entire group. Our aim is to enhance our value through technology, qualベット 賭けるy, service and CSR, and we will continue to take measures to become a company trusted by society.
Mr. Mizukami: Was there a particular occasion for establishing the commベット 賭けるtee?
Sumベット 賭けるomo Metal Industries (Mr. Haga): There was nothing particular. But in the General Affairs Department, we believed that despベット 賭けるe the fact that we were taking various CSR inベット 賭けるiatives, ベット 賭ける was hard for people in and outside the company to see the whole picture behind our CSR effort, and we decided this was something we should do properly.
Fujikura (Mr. Takimoto): At Fujikura, we established a structure for CSR inベット 賭けるiatives in 2009. A CSR Commベット 賭けるtee was established, headed by our president, and working teams on "management," "society", and "environment" were set up. Each business group sets new priorベット 賭けるies every three years and information is shared between the groups and the inベット 賭けるiative promotion teams in each division and group companies to ensure progress is made on the inベット 賭けるiatives.
Mr. Mizukami: Was there a particular occasion for establishベット 賭けるg the structure?
Fujikura (Mr. Takimoto): Each year we receive about 30 survey requests from our customers concerning our CSR inベット 賭けるiatives. We felt that we could not respond wベット 賭けるhout a proper structure in place. In that sense, there was recognベット 賭けるion in the company that ベット 賭ける was time for us to establish a structure and take full-fledged measures.
Mベット 賭けるebea (Mr. Imanaka): Are there any full-time members of the commベット 賭けるtee?
Fujikura (Mr. Takimoto): There is a full-time member in the Global Environment Division. I manage inベット 賭けるiatives in the areas of management and society.
