Commitment from the top

来自管理高层的承诺The GS Yuasa Group continues to develop its business throughpracticing environmental management while contributing to theemergence of a sustainable society.

杰士汤浅集团将实现“为可持续发展社会作贡献”和“通过环保经营的实践不断发展事业”的并存。

We are pleased to present to the reader the 2015 edition of ourEnvironmental & Social Report.
Japan’s economy is finally showing some signs of recovery
after a lengthy period of deflation and is gradually establishing
an autonomous virtuous cycle with rising asset prices reflectedin corporate performance and stock market prices.
This in itself is a welcome trend; however, the shutdown ofnuclear power plants and the weak yen have pushed up energy
costs. We cannot deny that these events are having a dampening
effect on consumers and on domestic business operations. In
addition, Japan’s resulting disproportionate reliance on thermal
power generation has led to an increase in CO2 emissions. As aresult, the setting of new greenhouse gas reduction targets has
been more difficult for Japan in the lead-up to the 21st Session of
the Conference of the Parties to the United Nations Framework
Convention on Climate Change (COP21) to be held in December
2015. Moreover, Japan’s commitment to its nuclear power ratio
in an optimal mix of power sources remains unclear.
The core business of the GS Yuasa Group is to store energy;
however, the storing of energy has no purpose unless thisenergy is used. Our corporate mission is to deliver products thatcan efficiently make maximum use of stored energy. Our role isto consolidate the latest technologies in order to provide key
devices offering both energy efficiency and reduced CO2
emissions. These can be applied to a variety of mobile objects
from the ocean depths to outer space, to industrial instruments,
and to public infrastructure and renewable energy. In this sense,
it may be said that our Group business is closely tied to theenvironment.
Moreover, in line with the evolution from corporate social

Philosophy

VisionInnovation and
GrowthWe are committed to delivering
security and comfort to ourcustomers around the globe
through advanced technologies
developed in the field of stored
energy solutions.

We are committed to the people,

responsibility (CSR) to creating shared value (CSV), companies
are expected to contribute to solutions to social problems (social
value) through their business operations. As for ISO 14001, theinternational standard for environmental management systems,
demand is increasing for management to have greater affinity forenvironmental management in order to ensure that the routine
daily business operations of corporations leads to actual
improvement of the environment. Our Group is proud to havestaked out an ideal position in this realm, because our businessdomain responds directly to this social request.
Sustainability, which has become the keyword when
considering issues related to the global environment, has also
become an important management issue. One could say that a“sustainable society” is a sophisticated society that ensurescompatibility between environmental conservation and corporate
operations. Our Group, in collaboration with our stakeholders
and the battery industry, has promoted the construction ofrecycling systems for used products since before the term CSR
took root. We actively assumed responsibility for using resources
effectively and controlling environmental pollution. In addition tocomplying with the law and minimizing the creation of
unnecessary by-products, we have linked several initiatives toensure steady environmental improvements while maintaining thesatisfaction of stakeholders and contributing to improved internal
awareness. We are ensuring the sustainability of our Groupbusinesses through reinvestments in the development of better
products, as we believe we can best contribute to society in thisway.
This Environmental & Social Report is intended to broadly
inform those who have an interest in our Group’s environmental
and social initiatives. We believe that each employee of the GS
Yuasa Group can contribute to enhanced social sustainability; weare therefore confident that this report will be useful as a teachingaid.
In keeping with our previous efforts, this report has been
prepared in two editions: a Japanese-language edition and a
combined Chinese-language and English-language edition. By
disclosing all facts regarding our environmental management
and social initiatives, we are contributing to the transparency andreliability of our business operations. We intend to reflect youropinions as we seek to further contribute to a sustainable society
and develop our business.

GS-Ibaraki Works, Ltd.
Start-to-finish production of valve regulated
lead-acid batteries
GS-Ibaraki Works, Ltd. was established in April 1968 to assemble
and conduct research on valve regulated lead-acid batteries. The
company is a start-to-finish producer of valve regulated lead-acidbatteries, which are leak-resistant and require no water top-up for theelectrolyte. In 1980, the company became a subsidiary of Japan
Storage Battery Co., Ltd. In 2004, the company was integrated into
the GS Yuasa Group when its parent, Japan Storage Battery Co.,
Ltd., merged with Yuasa Corporation.
With the increasing number of earthquakes, floods and otherdisasters in recent years, the importance of power backup systems
for buildings and public facilities has grown. Lead-acid batteries, theheart of such systems, are required to demonstrate high reliability.
The battery products of GS-Ibaraki Works, which have earned praise
for their quality and reliability, have proved popular in the markets forhybrid vehicles, portable electrical devices, security systems, andthe uninterruptible power supplies (UPS) used to underpin our
information-oriented society.
We have now entered the “environmental century,” a time whenlead-acid batteries are required to exhibit greater value. GS-Ibaraki
Works is committed to meeting the demand of the times throughongoing dedication to refining its proprietary technologies.

Pollution-control measures❷ Introduction of photovoltaic power
generation facilities
Lighting fixtures in the area around the company offices
have been converted to run on photovoltaic power
generation systems with batteries. As a result, for nighttime
lighting, the stored electricity from the photovoltaic power
generation system can be used, reducing the need for any
electricity from the commercial power grid.

节能活动❶ Air pollution-control initiatives❷ Noise-suppression initiatives

Replacing the plant’s dust collector with a high-performancemodel and reducing the lead concentration in the flue gas
released into the atmosphere have improved the environment
surrounding the plant.

PT. Yuasa Battery Indonesia has developed an initiative
to allocate land bordering the plant site as a green space. Talltrees in the green space would help to reduce noise from theplant, particularly during nighttime operation, in considerationof those living in the surrounding neighborhood.

风险管理的贯彻与危机管理

The GS Yuasa Group has adopted Risk Management Rules intended to avoid
or reduce exposure to business risk and minimize potential corporate losses.
Each department uses a Risk Management Sheet to evaluate the extent
of risk and the potential impact of risks identified within the department.
These departments hold monthly meetings to review the results of risk
evaluations performed by their respective risk management committees. In
addition, the Group Risk Management Committee — headed by ourpresident with members comprising chairs of various departmental Risk
Management Committees — holds semiannual meetings to promote
Group-wide risk management and to encourage the sharing of key
information related to risk management. The Risk Management Committee
confirms that appropriate risk management measures have been
implemented, and the committee chairs report on progress in this area.
Moreover, in preparation for the possibility that a risk materializes, thesystem maintains an emergency contact network to swiftly implement crisis
management. When a serious crisis occurs, members of the Group Risk
Management Committee are appointed to organize a crisis management
headquarters under the president in order to minimize corporate losses. We
have also established a system to implement an appropriate response tomoderate the situation.

杰士汤浅集团为避免、减少经营风险并力求将企业损失降到最低，制定了《风险管理规则》。
各事业部门采用《风险管理一览表》，评估各自部门所
特定的风险影响的重要性和发生的可能性，进行风险管理，在每月召开的风险管理委员会会议上修正风险评估的结果。
另外，为推进集团整体的风险管理和共享风险信息，本集团每半年召开一次集团风险管理委员会会议，该委员会委员长
由本公司总经理担任，组员由各事业部门风险管理委员长组
成。在委员会会议上，听取个事业部门的风险管理委员会委员长对风险管理情况的汇报，检测风险管理是否合理。
特别是，我们建立了预防风险的显著化事态，快速掌握
经营危机的紧急联络网等体制。一旦发生重大的危机事件，
我们将从集团风险管理委员会中选拔成员，设立由本公司总
经理担任委员长的危机管理对策总部，确立为平息事态而采取适当应对措施的体制，力求将公司的损失降到最低。

innovative approaches such as providing the sales division with training in
Antitrust Law.
We have also established the GS Yuasa Group Corporate Ethics Hotline for
employees who become aware of behavior that is unethical or otherwise
inappropriate. Accessible both internally and externally, the hotline enables
employees to provide information anonymously. Our investigation teamconducts inquiries and takes appropriate action while remaining committed toprotecting whistleblowers.
Moreover, our president periodically conducts a compliance survey by
distributing an in-house email questionnaire to all Group employees. The survey
contains questions on compliance practices that arise in day-to-day operations.

杰士汤浅集团为了通过“革新与成长”的企业理念为社会和地球环境作贡献，充分认识到全体员工开展重视遵守法律法规、伦理及公司规则相关活动的重要性。
为此，我们制定了明确全体员工应该遵守的十项行动规则《杰士汤浅集团的企业伦理标准》，和表明其具
体措施的《企业伦理行动准则》，并向全体员工分发了归纳该内容的《合规精神手册》。2014年度，继2012
年以来连续三年实施了通过在各职场广泛交换意见来提高合规精神意识的“合规精神职场会议”。此外，以营销部门为对象还开展了反垄断法培训等各种通过精心编排的课程而实施的培训活动。
此外，我们在公司内部和外部设置“企业伦理热线”，以便一旦员工发现有合规精神方面的不恰当行为可用匿名进行报告。完善了在力求保护信息提供者的同时，可进行详细调查和采取适当措施的体制。
还有，以全体员工为对象，本公司总经理定期性地进行合规精神调查—通过公司内部邮件收集日常业务中的合规
精神方面的疑问等信息。
