To realize the Company’s Management Philosophy, Nihon Kohden is committed to creating value with all stakeholders, including customers, shareholders, investors, business partners, local communities, and employees, in all aspects of our business, such as products, services, technology, financial strength, quality of employees, and other points. In planning and promoting sustainability initiatives, we also work to grow as a company that establishes trust and be well recognized by all our stakeholders. In addition to its citizenship activities and information disclosure through its business activities, Nihon Kohden also leverages the opinions and requests of stakeholders in its future business activities as part of its efforts to be a trusted member of society.
In April 2023, Nihon Kohden established a Multi-Stakeholder Policy to govern our efforts regarding returns to employees and consideration for our business partners.
