The Nisshinbo Group is deeply aware that companies are public organs, and that, while they are business entities pursuing profits through fair competition, their mission is to widely contribute to society through their corporate activities.

For that purpose, both domestically and internationally, we shall respect human rights, observe related legislation and international rules and the spirit behind them, and, with social common sense, act on the basis of the following 10 principles toward the creation of a sustainable society with consistent integrity as our fundamental creed.

  1. Giving proper consideration to safety and to the protection of personal information and client information, we shall develop and supply socially beneficial products and services and obtain the satisfaction and trust of consumers and clients.
  2. In a spirit of accountability, we shall engage in fair, transparent, and open competition and proper business transactions. We shall also maintain sound and healthy relations with political and government organizations.
  3. As well as with shareholders, we shall engage in communication broadly with society and disclose corporate information positively and fairly.
  4. We shall respect the diversity, character, and individuality of employees, ensure a safe and work-friendly environment for them, and realize their comfort and affluence.
  5. We recognize that efforts to address environmental problems are a common issue for humankind and an essential condition for the existence and activities of the Nisshinbo Group, and we shall act independently and positively in this regard.
  6. We shall actively engage in social contribution activities as a good corporate citizen.
  7. We shall resolutely resist any antisocial forces or organizations that pose a threat to the order and safety of civil society.
  8. In our international business activities, as well as complying with international rules and local legislation, we shall engage in management that respects local culture and customs and contributes to their development.
  9. The top management of Nisshinbo Group companies recognizes that it is our duty to realize the spirit of this charter and, by setting a good example, to disseminate it throughout the Group and make it known to business partners. Furthermore, we shall constantly monitor opinions both inside and outside the Group, establish an effective in-house setup, and thoroughly imbue corporate ethics.
  10. If a situation arises that appears to violate this charter, the top management of Nisshinbo Group companies shall make clear both internally and externally our position of solving the problem and shall endeavor to investigate the causes and prevent a recurrence. Furthermore, the top management shall execute the disclosure of speedy and accurate information and accountability to the public and, after clarifying authority and responsibility, undertake strict penalties, including upon ourselves.
