The Basic Perspective of CSR |
 |
| Since the company was established, Kyocera has followed its Management Rationale, “To provide opportunities for the
material and intellectual growth of all our employees, and through our joint effort, contribute to the advancement of society
and humankind.” By using “What is the right thing to do as a human being?” as the decision-making criterion, management
has been based on the “Kyocera Philosophy”. “Fairness, impartiality, justice, effort, courage, philanthropy, modesty and
good faith” are among the basic human attitudes we encourage. Applying these as our code of conduct in “a spirit of caring
for others”, Kyocera has continually “endeavored to make products that benefit the world”. In other words, for the Kyocera
Group, CSR is certainly not a new concept. It is none other than an application of the basis of our management – the Kyocera
Philosophy. Application of the Kyocera Philosophy builds mutual trust with people who have interests in the company.
Ultimately, it contributes to sustainable development of the Kyocera Group and the healthy development of society. |
| The Objective of CSR Activity |
|
| Advancing organizational CSR activities based on application
of the Kyocera Philosophy builds mutual trust with people
who have interests in the corporation. It forms the foundation
for sustainable development of the Kyocera Group, while
contributing to the healthy development of society. |
| The Scope of CSR Activities |
|
| The Kyocera Group is strengthening its management
foundation in the area of corporate governance. The
Group is aiming for well-balanced CSR activities from three
perspectives: economic, social and environmental. |

|
| According to the Kyocera Philosophy, the basis for making
decisions is the question: “What is the right thing to do as a
human being?” All employees share this most fundamental
code of conduct. Kyocera has established “Kyocera Action
Guidelines” to assist employees in following the Kyocera
Philosophy. Our Guidelines are continually being improved.
Kyocera’s Risk Management Headquarters Division has placed
Risk Management staff throughout the Kyocera Group. The Risk
Management staff within each business division works to ensure
thorough knowledge of legal matters, as well as anticipating
and preventing risk. Additionally, an Overseas Risk Management
Department was set up within the Risk Management Division in
April 2008. In Japan and overseas, the entire Kyocera Group is
thus promoting compliance. |
 |
| Risk Management |
|
| Aiming to become “An innovative enterprise that continues
to grow,” the Kyocera Group supports global business
development. This exposes us to increasingly diverse domestic
and overseas risks stemming from political, economic and
social changes. Appropriate safeguards are needed; therefore,
Kyocera operates a total risk management system to prevent
risks and implement countermeasures. Two systems have been
prepared. The Compliance Management System aims for risk
aversion in day-to-day operations. In an emergency situation,
the Emergency Response System is activated to minimize
damage, based on the Crisis Management Manual. |
