Sustainability Management Structure
Following its Sustainability Policy, the Group is continually improving CSR activities by implementing the PDCA cycle to improve its ISO-certified environmental and quality management systems. Pursuant to the Toagosei Group's policy and targets, each operating company establishes its own policy and targets, based on which each operating company and its business sites draw up individual action plans to promote and review activities. Meetings of the Sustainability Promotion Committee and the Responsible Care Committee are convened and CSR audits are performed in order to collectively monitor CSR activities at each operating company and business site as well as progress toward fulfilling policies and attaining targets. In turn, this information is used to make continual improvements across the entire Toagosei Group.
