Based on our management philosophy of "Untether time", we will contribute to the sustainability of people, society and the earth. We will promote sustainability activities that aim to achieve both "social value" and "economic value."

Basic Sustainability Policy

Enabling unique pathways through life

 

Untether time.
As humanity approaches the era of 100-year live spans, we aim to create a world where every individual can pursue new challenges with confidence and curiosity, free from preconceived notions of age and gender.
Working together with our stakeholders, we will think outside the square to provide unique value that can change the world, addressing social issues for a brighter, sustainable future.

Materiality

We have identified social issues brought about by changes in the social environment, and identified matters that we consider important in achieving sustainable growth as materiality (important issues) in the areas of the environment, society, and governance. First of all, we will establish an action policy and work on formulating and promoting concrete measures to solve each future issue.

Materiality Identification Process

We have identified the issues that should be prioritized from the two perspectives of importance for stakeholders and importance for the business of the Group and have set five materiality issues.

STEP 1:Extraction of social issues

After analyzing the expectations and demands of internal and external stakeholders such as our customers, business partners, employees, shareholders and investors, we refer to information from major ESG rating agencies such as SASB standards, S&P Global Ratings, and others. We have sorted out  the social issues to be considered.

STEP 2:Implementation of materiality analysis (assessment of issues)

From the sorted out social issues, we extracted materiality candidates for the Group and conducted materiality analysis from two perspectives: (1) importance for stakeholders and (2) importance for the Group's business.

STEP 3:Identification of materiality

After discussing the results of the materiality analysis with each department within the company, we selected nine materiality candidates with particularly high priority. These nine items have been reconfigured into five material issues from the two axes of "pursuit of prosperity that anti-aging brings" and "corporate foundations that support growth."

STEP 4:Formulation of materiality action policy

We have decided on future action policies for the five materiality issues. These materiality and action policies were approved by the Board of Directors after deliberation by the Sustainability Promotion Committee.
