Social Contribution Activities

In April 2022, we established the Sustainability Committee to conduct comprehensive management reviews on the direction and appropriateness of ESG initiatives by executive management in accordance with the Sustainability Fundamental Policy. In July 2025, in order to address changes in the external environment and rationalize internal operations, we reviewed the structure and operational flow of this meeting body to render it more efficient and functional.
The Head of Human Resources Infrastructure has oversight over the Group’s social contribution activities, and the Corporate Planning Department (external relations and public relations) and General Administration Department (external relations, employees, and sports clubs) work in tandem to pursue these activities with the latter as the responsible department. Management reviews of these activities are conducted by the People Empowerment Promotion Meeting, made up of members put forward by each department, and results are conveyed to the Board of Directors via the Sustainability Committee.
