Within the Omron Principles, the Management Commitments serve as the core elements in Omron's efforts to meet its CSR. The commitments stipulate Omron's focus on stakeholder-centered management, which involves relations of mutual trust with stakeholders through sincere dialogue.

Omron's CSR Practice Guidelines established in fiscal 2006 set forth specific actions and behavior necessary for each Group member to meet these commitments. The guidelines stipulate the four fundamental principles of Omron's CSR practices. Beneath these principles are the basic policies for addressing the five key CSR issues, and practice guidelines that Omron Group directors and employees are required to follow. The key issues are: Human Rights, Labor Conditions, and Occupational Health and Safety; Fair and Honest Business Practices; Environmental Protection; Harmonious Coexistence with Society; and Prohibition of Private Activities that Harm the Company's Reputation.

Omron's CSR activities revolve around the three pillars of its CSR policy. Accordingly, with Omron's Grand Design 2010 (GD2010), its long-term vision targeting the year 2010, Omron has been proactively addressing CSR issues by integrating CSR into the core of its management strategies.

During the second stage of GD2010 (fiscal 2004-07), Omron determined key issues based on the three pillars and has strived to meet its goals.
