IR BOOK 2021 - Corporate GovernanceIn recent years, compliance violations havebecome a social problem. We believe that low
employee engagement creates a breeding
ground for organizational wrongdoing. We areproactively working to strengthen complianceso that we can become a role model forsociety by continuing to be an organizationthat realizes Management with Integrity and“One for All, All for One.” We conduct
compliance training in which members of top
management explain how to apply Motivation
Engineering and publish the Six Codes of LM,
which summarize the Group’s various rules.
In ways such as this we are working to raise
employee awareness.
