Activities to foster awareness of business ethics and compliance

Activities to foster awareness of business ethics and compliance

The Corporate Compliance Department of Oji Holdings promotes compliance by providing compliance training and delivering newsletters. The compliance promotion leaders of Group companies lead the holding of regular business ethics and compliance meetings and training sessions on harassment and other issues for all officers and employees (including part-time and temporary employees) in each workplace. The Oji Group strives to raise business ethics and compliance awareness by combining these activities.

  • Training
    We conduct corporate ethics and compliance training by educating new managers, new employees, and other employees at different levels, as well as regular in-house training sessions on harassment, the Act against Delay in Payment of Subcontract Proceeds, the Anti-Monopoly Act, and anti-bribery.
  • Information Dissemination
    We publish a monthly newsletter, "Compliance News" to alert employees to case studies, explain the Oji Group Corporate Code of Conduct, and the Oji Group Behavior Standard, and inform them of the Whistle-blowing system.

Through regular compliance meetings, we promote understanding of the Oji Group Corporate Code of Conduct, and the Oji Group Behavior Standard, identify compliance issues in the workplace, and encourage employees to think about and discuss measures to deal with these issues on their own, thereby raising awareness of business ethics and compliance.
And more, the contents of the compliance meeting are reported to the Corporate Compliance Department, and practical initiatives are shared throughout the Group.
