Led by the department in charge of compliance and CSR promotion (Legal & CSR Department), TAKUMA aims at encouraging proper activities through the Compliance & CSR Promotion Organization which was installed for the purpose of enabling compliance and CSR to concretely permeate company-wide through an in-house organization.
This organization is composed of a chairman (the Executive Manager of the Compliance & CSR Promotion Division), a secretariat (positioned in the (Legal & CSR Department), and an executing organization in each division, center, and department. As the person in charge of promoting compliance and CSR in his or her division, each division or center manager is appointed as a Compliance and CSR Promotion Administrator. As persons who implement awareness and education in compliance and CSR in their respective departments, department managers are appointed as Compliance and CSR Promoters.
The initiative includes an annual regular meeting at which Compliance & CSR Promotion Administrators discuss the state of compliance and CSR promotion throughout the company as well as quarterly departmental meetings at which Compliance & CSR Promoters are given training (including e-learning) to help them better carry out related activities in their departments.
Additionally, the TAKUMA Group Coordinating Committee for Compliance & CSR Promotion is held twice a year for representatives of group companies to help ensure that compliance and risk management are implemented throughout the group.
As of March 31, 2025
TAKUMA implements compliance and CSR promotion training for all employees through the Compliance & CSR Promotion Organization.
We cover the Anti-Monopoly Act, insider trading, and other topics on a regular basis as part of our education and training programs, and we strive to eliminate unfair business practices. During the first educational session of each year, we foster understanding and awareness of topics including insider trading management rules, and our manual concerning organized crime and other anti-social forces as shared, company-wide risk countermeasures under our risk management system. We also spread detailed awareness of topics such as the Ethical Rules for Employees of Government Agencies and Local Public Bodies, for example by having trainees read from our Compliance Manual, and we strive to ensure compliance while working actively to eliminate all forms of bribery and corruption.
In addition, we explicitly cite the importance of respect for fundamental human rights in documents such as the Ethics Charter and Code of Conduct, and we spread awareness of associated provisions through internal educational and other programs. Specifically, human rights awareness-raising activities, such as LGBT education in harassment prevention education, are being promoted as part of education on sexual orientation and gender identity.
During FY2023, we held four compliance and CSR promotion training sessions to help spread awareness of compliance and CSR throughout the group and ensure that risk management activities are carried out in an ongoing and steady manner.
