In order to further deepen the efforts for CSR that our corporate group has made until now, we have incorporated the approach adopted by the UN for Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) in our business activities, and we are seeking to continue contributing to the sustainable development of society.

In these trainings, we were able to deepen understanding about SDGs, as well as organize daily work activities into ESG domains and gather numerous opinions about issues that our company should be taking on. As a step to identify important issues for our corporate group, we classified group business activities into ESG domains and organized their current relationships with SDGs in the table below.
