Materiality

Amidst accumulating environmental and social issues, including climate change, energy problems, aging society with fewer children, poverty, and human rights issues, corporations have a growing responsibility to solve such issues. The Haseko Group has identified priority issues to be addressed as materiality (material issues) from the perspective of business and social axes, and has incorporated these issues into our guidelines for promoting sustainability. After having first identified the details of materiality in 2018, we subsequently revised these details in April, 2020 and again in May, 2023. We will conduct periodic reviews as necessary from a perspective of consistency with the management policy and social conditions.

Materiality Identification Process

Haseko Group’s Materiality

All of the materiality topics identified have been incorporated as components of Our Four Main Themes.

Promotion of the Sustainability Action Plan

As a specific initiative for implementing sustainability, we have established Haseko Group Sustainability Action Plan and are making progress with its implementation. Sustainability Action Plan is based on Our Four Main Themes, and consists of initiative items to move toward the “Vision for 2037 (100th anniversary)” and key performance indicators (KPIs) to measure how much progress has been made. The Action Plan covers the business activities of the entire Haseko Group and is reviewed and improved each fiscal year.

※From April 2025, the 'Haseko Group CSR Action Plan' has been renamed and is now being operated as the 'Haseko Group Sustainability Action Plan'.

Sustainability Organizational Framework

The Haseko Group is promoting sustainability organizationally through the operation of the management system shown below. As a subordinate organization to the board of directors, we have established a "Sustainability Committee" chaired by the president of Haseko Corporation, which examines and decides on sustainability policies and activity plans, as well as monitors and reviews the status of activities. Matters discussed and reported at the Sustainability Committee are reported to and supervised by the board of directors, and important matters are submitted to the board for deliberation and decision.
Additionally, as a subordinate body under the committee, we also have the “Sustainability Promotion Conference” to engage in promoting and instilling sustainability across the Group, including environmental initiatives such as decarbonization, energy and environmental technologies.
We will continue to actively advance various initiatives towards the realization of sustainability.
