To reduce various operating risks, the company has established the Risk Management Committee, chaired by the CEO. The Committee works to promote compliance, including risk management at all group companies, and information security measures, as well as to achieve early detection of risk factors that could have a major social impact, such as ensuring product safety, and countermeasures for those factors. Underneath the Committee there are standing committees that investigate and study each risk factor. The Risk Management Operation Committee collects information swiftly and accurately and ensures proper direction and the management of business execution to ensure that risk management functions effectively throughout the company.
The Compliance Committee promotes compliance with the laws, regulations and corporate ethics necessary for promoting appropriate corporate activities and disseminates these to group employees and other concerned persons as cohesivery as possible.

As part of these activities, in addition to group training for all employees or on-demand education through e-learning, the company holds seminars for employees according to their position and department as deemed necessary to ensure that laws and regulations are made known to employees together with carrying out activities to raise employee awareness. The company has also established an internal reporting system to curb fraud.
