The SCSK Group takes its commitment to tackling modern slavery very seriously. We set out below thesteps the SCSK Group has taken to help ensure that modern slavery is not taking place in SCSK Group’sbusiness or supply chains:
SCSK Group Human Rights Policy
The SCSK Group has formulated a “SCSK Group Human Rights Policy” which sets out our approachand responsibilities as a corporate group that respects the human rights of all people affected by theSCSK Group’s business activities, based on our corporate philosophy and Code of Conduct.

The policy respects human rights as expressed in the “International Bill of Human Rights” and theInternational Labour Organization’s “Declaration on Fundamental Principles and Rights at Work,” andaims to pursue business activities respecting human rights based on the UN Guiding Principles on
Business and Human Rights. The policy sets out, among other matters: i) that the SCSK Group strives
to identify, prevent, and/or mitigate possible adverse human rights impacts through human rights due
diligence initiatives; ii) that where the SCSK Group identifies that the Group has caused or contributed
to adverse human rights impacts through our business activities, the Group strives to take appropriate
measures to correct or remedy the situation; and iii) that the SCSK Group will strive to improve andenhance our efforts to respect human rights by utilizing independent external human rights expertise, as
well as by engaging in dialogue and discussion with our relevant stakeholders.
Furthermore, SCSK has adhered to the UN Global Compact since 2007. We support the Compact’s Ten
Principles relating to human rights, labor, the environment, and prevention of corruption. In addition torespect for human rights, we are committed to carrying out corporate activities to guarantee fundamentallabor rights.
Human Rights Due Diligence
The SCSK Group has been performing human rights due diligence since FY 2022, based on the “SCSKGroup Human Rights Policy.” The SCSK Group carries out its human due diligence process in line withinternational guidelines such as the UN Guiding Principles on Business and Human Rights, the UN
Guiding Principles Reporting Framework, and the OECD Due Diligence Guidance for Responsible
Business Conduct.
As a first step, we are working to identify human rights issues that should be addressed as a priority byconducting desktop surveys, interviews with external experts, and internal interviews to assess theimpact and risks to human rights across the Group.
Going forward, we will strengthen risk assessments, formulate action plans for risk prevention andmitigation, and prepare to implement monitoring.
Supply Chain Sustainability Policy
To fulfill our social responsibility together with our outsourcing partners and other business partners,
the SCSK Group set out the “Supply Chain Sustainability Policy,” in which we stated guidelines related
to human rights such as “Respect human rights and not to be complicit in human rights abuses” and“Prevent forced labor, excessive labor, child labor and the payment of unfairly low wages”; and we ask
our suppliers for understanding and support of the Policy.
Group Governance
The SCSK Group strives to maintain and improve management soundness by ensuring managementtransparency, strengthening appropriate governance and monitoring systems, and continuous riskmanagement.
In order to appropriately manage risks that could have a serious adverse effect on the SCSK Group’sbusiness, SCSK has established the Risk Management Regulations, and based on these regulations, weconduct risk assessments (identification, analysis, and evaluation of risks) on a regular basis every year,including at domestic and overseas Group companies. As a result of the assessments, risks determined
to require more focused countermeasures are defined as important risk management items and are
addressed from a company-wide perspective.
Education and Training
The SCSK Group provides appropriate education, training, and seminars to ensure that all officers andemployees increase their understanding and awareness of modern slavery as well as respect for humanrights. We will continue to provide education and training as appropriate and promote their participation.
