Toward Realizing a Sustainable Society

Based on its Management Philosophy drafted in March 2005, the Ushio Group is pursuing a diverse array of economic, social and environmental activities to preserve harmony between society and the environment.

Apprpach Corporate Social Responsibility(CSR)

We consider it natural that a corporate citizen should observe laws and regulations, contribute to society, and take steps to protect the environment. These are the foundations of all corporate activity. In addition, a corporation should build good relationships with its various stakeholders and advance by creating and offering new value to contribute to society. This is the kind of corporation that USHIO is working to become.

Formulation of a CSR Action Plan

From fiscal 2011, USHIO has created a CSR Action Plan (Policy) and taken steps to reinforce its CSR initiatives. The plan covers items classified under five pillars of governance, people, quality, society, and environment. These items are then broken down further into action policies.

CSR Promotion Framework

USHIO has established a CSR Committee, which is chaired by the president. The committee decides on policies for the whole Company relating to CSR initiatives. The CSR Committee establishes subcommittees as needed to oversee practical implementation of the policies it has decided, and discusses specific initiatives and ways to promote them.

United Nations Global Compact's Ten Principles

USHIO has declared its support for the United Nations Global Compact of principles concerning human rights, labor, the environment and anti-corruption. We have joined the local UN network supporting the compact, Global Compact Japan Network, and have taken an active role in various sectional activities.
