Risk Management
With the aim of maintaining and enhancing corporate value, the ShinMaywa Group has established rules and regulations regarding risk management based on the Basic Policy on Creation of Internal Control Systems to appropriately manage various risks associated with corporate activities and to minimize damage in the event that risks materialize. In addition, the section on business and other risks in the Annual Securities Report describes risks that have been evaluated as particularly important.
Promotion Framework
With regard to risks associated with business execution, we
have established the ShinMaywa Group Risk Management
Regulations, and each business division and Group company
proactively creates a risk management system adapted to the
characteristics of its business. Meanwhile, the Head Office
monitors the status of risk management at each division and
Group company, while also establishing a risk management
framework by implementing company-wide measures to
address risks including disaster-related and financial risks.
In addition, the Sustainability Committee checks the status
and activities of the ShinMaywa Group’s risk management
framework based on information reported from the Head Office
and business divisions, and also identifies major company-wide
risks in light of their impact on business operations. The
Committee reports such information regularly to the Executive Committee and the Board of Directors to ensure the
effectiveness of the Group’s risk management.
Business Continuity Plan（BCP）
When a large-scale natural disaster occurs, it has a significant impact on business activities. In order to ensure the lives and safety of our employees, and to fulfill our mission of quickly restoring business operations in the event of a disruption in production activities and continuing to supply products to our customers, we immediately set up a disaster response headquarters and have established a risk management system to minimize the impact on product supply based on the "business continuity plans" created for each production base.
Furthermore, we have established Business Continuity Management (BCM), a comprehensive management process that uses the "Business Continuity Plan" to determine how to disseminate it within our group and how to utilize it strategically. Based on the group's "Management philosophy" and "Sustainability management policy," our "Business Continuity Management" has set the following as key priorities: "Putting human life first," "Safety and security of the surrounding area," and "Responsibility to supply products and services."
We have also introduced a "safety confirmation system" to create a mechanism for centrally managing the safety of employees and their families, as well as the damage status of facilities. To ensure that employees are aware of the system, we hold disaster prevention (evacuation) drills once a year, as well as multiple training sessions on how to operate the safety confirmation system, and we also conduct training on setting up a disaster response headquarters.
Information Security
Based on our Code of conduct, which is grounded in our Management philosophy, we have defined our basic approach to information security and the items requiring compliance. We will continue to be a company trusted by society and all stakeholders by fostering governance and a corporate culture that enables all members of the ShinMaywa Group to recognize the importance of information security and act accordingly.
