NITTA Group initiatives for the promotion of sustainability

The Nitta Group recognizes the importance of promoting sustainability in addressing the needs of various stakeholders in order to achieve ongoing improvement in the Group’s corporate value. We have established a system and roles for that purpose.
Within the Group, the president is ultimately responsible for sustainability. The president chairs the Sustainability Committee, which has been established to deliberate and report on Group sustainability-related matters. Other members of this committee include inside and outside directors, Audit & Supervisory Board members, and general managers of business divisions.
The Sustainability Committee gives regular reports to the Board of Directors on important sustainability-related matters.
The following sustainability promotion framework has been established for each department and group company in order to disseminate information about sustainability-related policies and initiatives within the Group.
