For the identified significant human rights themes, we will work to prevent or mitigate human rights risks by conducting periodic assessments of negative human rights impacts and implementing countermeasures.

Procedures Identification of Significant human rights themes

STEP1. Primary Risk Assessment
We identify human rights risks pertaining to our company from major international rules and frameworks related to human rights, investigate the occurrence and causes of those risks in our company and evaluate the likelihood of their occurrence, and determine the items for secondary risk assessment.

STEP2. Secondary Risk Assessment
We conduct surveys of all employees, interviews with relevant departments, and surveys of parts and product suppliers to investigate the detailed occurrence, causes, and countermeasures for each risk.

STEP3. Identification of Significant Human Rights Themes
We evaluate the "likelihood of occurrence" and "severity (scale, scope, and inability to remedy)" of each risk, as well as seek expert opinions and prepare a risk map, and identify "significant human rights themes" to be further addressed as a priority from among the themes assessed as having high risk.
