Sustainability Management

Promotion Framework

We have established a Sustainability Committee under the supervision of the Board of Directors, chaired by the Representative Director and President & CEO (hereinafter referred to as "Representative Director and President") and composed of all Directors and Executive Officers as well as Outside Audit & Supervisory Board Members, to promote sustainability initiatives.
This Committee reviews and formulates policies, strategies, plans, and measures in relation to sustainability, identifies issues facing each Group company, and clarifies measures to strengthen and improve them.
The Public Relations & Sustainability Group serves as the secretariat, and deliberations are reported to the Group Management Strategy Meeting, the Management Meeting, and the Board of Directors as appropriate.
In addition, the Governance Committee, Compliance Committee and Group Risk Management Committee, etc. are working together to strengthen activities to further promote sustainability.
We have also appointed CSR promotion officers throughout the entire Group, and regularly hold CSR Promotion Officers Meetings. In these meetings, we share information, including the identification of issues at each company, such as those related to climate change, and the reports on the status of activities. The outcomes of both meetings are reported to the Sustainability Committee, and we are dedicated to strengthening and promoting our collective efforts as a group toward realizing a sustainable society.

Promotional measures

We will focus on further promoting dialogue and enriching the content of the Carlit Report, an integrated report that serves as a communication tool, so that shareholders and other stakeholders can gain a deeper understanding of the Group's sustainability initiatives.
We also consider it important for employees to understand the policy and approach for our sustainability activities. We promote awareness by conducting promotion training at all Group companies, including overseas locations, distributing guidance videos to all employees, and regularly publishing sustainability-related information in the company newsletter. Through these measures, we aim to instill a sense of commitment toward sustainability in all employees.
