The Group identifies and mitigates a wide range of risks, including natural disasters, accidents and misconduct, cyberattacks, reputational risks, and changes in laws and regulations, with the aim of preventing major incidents, minimizing damage, and achieving early recovery.

Under the supervision of the Board of Directors, responsibilities and authorities are clearly defined according to the nature of each risk, and responses are implemented based on the “Guidelines for Risk Management and Compliance.”

• Identify significant risks and continuously improve countermeasures to enhance the organization’s social credibility
• Ensure the safety of all personnel and protect management resources (information, facilities, intellectual property, etc.)
• In the event of accidents or disasters, promptly confirm facts, notify relevant parties, and implement recovery and recurrence prevention measures
• Act in a manner that does not harm the safety and interests of stakeholders, with clear accountability
• Reflect societal expectations (human rights, environment, supply chains, etc.) in risk management activities

The Group regards compliance as a top management priority and requires all officers and employees to act in accordance with laws, internal rules, and societal expectations. Specifically, the Group ensures:

• Compliance with laws, internal regulations, contracts, and industry guidelines
• Appropriate disclosure of information and accountability to stakeholders
• Non-involvement in misconduct or improper demands, management of conflicts of interest, and prevention of bribery and corruption
• Respect for human rights, prohibition of discrimination and harassment, and maintenance of a sound workplace environment
• Compliance with environmental, quality, and safety standards, along with continuous improvement

The Group strives to enhance risk awareness among all officers and employees and to strengthen company-wide risk management. To ensure overall control and management of compliance, the “Risk Management and Compliance Committee” is established.

The Committee deliberates and determines policies, annual plans, major risks, and responses to significant violations. It monitors implementation status and instructs corrective actions and recurrence prevention measures as necessary. Each department executes actions in accordance with the Committee’s policies and reports the results.

In line with the intent of the Whistleblower Protection Act, the Group operates an internal reporting system, the “Nagoya Electric Works Group Helpline.” Retaliation or disadvantageous treatment against whistleblowers and cooperating individuals is strictly prohibited, and the confidentiality of reported information is ensured.

Procedures from reporting, investigation, and corrective action to recurrence prevention are communicated to all officers and employees.

The Group maintains no relationship with anti-social forces or organizations that threaten the order and safety of civil society and firmly rejects any improper demands.

When necessary, the Group will cooperate with external organizations, including the police, to respond in an organized manner.

In addition, the Group continuously develops education programs for all officers and employees and strengthens collaboration frameworks with relevant institutions.
