1. Compliance with Laws and Ethical Conduct

The OMRON Group is aware that a company must operate in harmony with a law-abiding and ethical society. Based on this awareness, the OMRON Group puts the utmost priority on compliance with laws and regulations and respect for fair social rules, while also conducting business activities in a highly ethical manner. The OMRON Group respects laws, regulations and rules specific to each country or region, and promotes management practices in such a way as to harmonize with OMRON's own values and common awareness of the global society.

Directors and employees of the OMRON Group will comply with all applicable laws and conduct operations and act in a highly ethical manner, while also making it a habit to acquire all necessary knowledge to appropriately check their own behavior.

2. Global Perspectives in Management and Day-to-Day Operations

When conducting management practices or day-to-day operations, the OMRON Group gives due consideration to differences among countries or regions to ensure we will not impose country-specific customs or ways of thinking on others.

Without solely focusing on the situation of our own country or region or the issues that are prominent there, we will make sure to take into account internationally shared perceptions when carrying out management practices and day-to-day operations.

3. Building Trust and Confidence with Stakeholders

The OMRON Group will strive to promote sincere dialogue when interacting with our stakeholders, which include employees; customers; business associates and suppliers; shareholders and investors; and local communities. Sincere dialogue requires offering clear and concise corporate information and ensuring accountability to stakeholders. To ensure appropriate and timely disclosure of corporate informa-tion, directors and employees of the OMRON Group will endeavor to gather, report and provide accurate information.

We will seek the understanding and support of our supply chain partners in conforming to and practicing the OMRON Group's CSR policy. We will also proactively promote collaborative activities with industry groups, governmental agencies and international organizations.

4. Setup of CSR Management Systems

The OMRON Group will strive to build a PDCA system, which is designed to repeat the sequence of deciding the appropriate action to take (PLAN), implementing the action (DO), monitoring the process of implementation and consequences (CHECK), and counteracting and improving the situation if there is a problem (ACTION).

Directors and employees of the OMRON Group will not only implement CSR practices themselves but will also report to appropriate personnel any problem in their own actions or those of others, and cooperate in improving the situation and preventing the recurrence of the problem. They will also strive to identify possible risks and take preventive measures, as required depending on their job category and authority, and implement appropriate measures against crisis according to the internal policies or strategies.
