Approach to Communication with Stakeholders

The group’s Corporate Philosophy encompasses the values of integrity, fairness, and harmony, and the mission of “carving a better future for society and the environment” based on the principles of change, challenge, and create. Our aim is to realize a sustainable society.
In order to achieve this, it is important to accurately understand and respond to the expectations and demands of our stakeholders. We accomplish this through active dialogue. In addition to working to respond to the opinions and requests obtained through such dialogue, we will continue to aim for timely and appropriate information disclosure and proactive communication.
