Sustainability Management
Sustainability Promotion
Basic stance and policy
Aisin's management philosophy is “Inspiring ‘movement,’ creating tomorrow.” Our mission is to deliver beauty to our future earth, bringing freedom and happiness to “movement.”
Through dialogue with stakeholders, we anticipate social issues and needs and aim to achieve a virtuous cycle of sustainable society realization and corporate value enhancement through our business activities.
To serve as the foundation of our sustainability management effort, we have established the AISIN Group Charter of Sustainability, which serves as our guideline for corporate activities. Additionally, we have defined the specific actions that employees should take to comply with the Charter in the Code of Conduct, and we ensure its thorough understanding and implementation.
Promotion Structure
We hold a Sustainability Conference, chaired by our President, twice a year to discuss and determine the direction of our sustainability policies and initiatives, as well as to manage the progress of initiatives based on materiality issues. Policies adopted at the Sustainability Conference are reflected in the plans of each committee and deliberative body so they can propel initiatives to achieve our goals. Furthermore, important items from among matters deliberated and decided upon at the Sustainability Conference and in other forums are submitted and reported to the Board of Directors, which provides oversight.
