Sustainability Management
Sustainability Implementation System
│Sustainability Committee
Casio has amended its CSR implementation system and established a Sustainability Committee positioned between its Board of Directors and Management Committee. Since the beginning of fiscal 2022, in accordance with revisions to the business execution structure, the committee has been chaired by the director in charge of ESG strategy, with its members including the CFO, CHRO, heads of each business, heads of each functional headquarters, and officers in charge of staff departments. Important functions of the committee are to ensure that key issues relating to sustainability are candidly discussed by officers on the committee and to ensure that all committee members develop a consensus understanding of those issues. The results of the committee’s deliberations are reported to the Board of Directors and then put into practice, following necessary procedures. In addition, the state of progress regarding each issue is continually monitored.
Themes that were deliberated on by the Sustainability Committee from fiscal 2021 through the beginning of fiscal 2022 and put into practice are outlined below, along with plans for fiscal 2022.
