Sustainability Management
Concept
The Kyocera Group's sustainability activities reflect our management philosophy and our mission to build businesses that respond to societal needs. We are committed to develop environment-friendly products, implement climate change countermeasures through long-term environmental targets, and respect human rights.
Promotion System
To promote the sustainable development of both society and the Kyocera Group, the Kyocera Group's Sustainability Committee holds two meetings yearly. The committee is chaired by our president, Hideo Tanimoto,and is attended by Kyocera's Inside Directors and other top leaders. In FY2023, we reported and discussed about long-term environmental goals, ways to contribute to the circular economy, and expanding the introduction of renewable energy. We will continue to promote company-wide collaboration to meet global expectations for sustainability in business.
Sustainability Management Processes
To promote sustainable management, first, we seek to understand societal needs through stakeholder engagement. Next, we identify priority issues and take actions to address them. Then, we evaluate the results and discuss the improvement methods, while top management reviews them at committee meetings for further improvement.
Stakeholder Engagement
To understand societal needs and fulfill them, we have improved our communication with stakeholders in order to make decisions based on their opinions.
How We Select Materiality in Sustainable Management
The Kyocera Group continually assesses social conditions, global trends, and stakeholder concerns for discussion with our Sustainability Committee. Priorities are addressed at semiannual International Management Meetings, which are attended by the leaders of our global operations. Issues of materiality identified through this process are reported to the Board of Directors.
