社員各位

To all employees:

社員のみなさんには、
グローバルな視点を持って業務の改善、効率化の推進、新しい計画の立案、そして業務の遂行を積極的に取り組んで頂いていますが、それだけでは企業は生き残れない時代となりました。

近年、商品やサービスの安全性は当然のこととして、
人にやさしい環境或いは、人権擁護といった企業活動に関するあらゆる面での公正な行動と情報公開が求められています。
「 企業は永遠に」と言われますが、こうした社会環境に対し追随できない企業は競争社会から脱落することになり存続することができません。

企業は公正な行動を採ることを社会に約束し、社会やお客様から信頼を勝ち取ることで生き残れることになります。

当社が市場や社会からこれまで以上に信頼を獲得し、高い評価を得られるかどうかは、社員一人ひとりの行動にかかっております。
当社の事業も地球規模的に広がっており、物事の価値判断においても、より複眼的視点で対応しなければなりません。

先ずは、公正であることを追求する限り間違いはないと信じております。

私は、東洋炭素のみなさんが、当社の経営理念、経営方針に沿った行動を採っていただくと同時に、法令や社会規範を厳格に遵守した行動を採ることを強く求め、改めて法令および社会規範の遵守を経営の基本原則に採り入れます。

社員のみなさんも自分自身や他人の行動に疑問を感じた時や、何か問題点に気づいた時には当該行動基準に立ち返ってみるか、

或いは上司や関連部署に相談してみてください。本行動基準は、当社社員としての行動判断基準の基本的な事項を記載しているものであり、
詳細については関連する規程、規則や業務マニュアル
およびその他コンプライアンス・プログラム（法令や倫理を遵守する制度）に沿って行動して頂くことを要望します。技術と信頼

While you have all been busy improving and streamlining
operations, drafting new plans, and actively engaging inoperations from a global perspective, we entered an age during
which the sum of these efforts are not enough to ensure oursurvival as a going concern. In addition to the safety of products
and services as a matter of course, we have come to seek ameasure of fair conduct and information disclosure in all aspectsof corporate activities within the framework of a people-friendly
environment and in the context of human rights in recent years.
Although it is often said, “a company can exist forever,” but thetruth is that those that are unable to keep pace with such a social
environment are forced to withdraw from our competitive society
and cease to exist. A company will survive by promising societythat it will take fair actions and by gaining the trust of society andits customers. Whether we can continue to gain the trust andappreciation of the markets and society is wholly dependent on
the actions of each and every employee. With the global
expansion of our business, we must also respond in terms ofassessing the value of things with as many eyes open as possible.
First, I believe that we will not be proven wrong so long as we
pursue the path of fairness. I have high hopes that everyone here
at TOYO TANSO will strictly comply with laws and social norms at
the same time that they conduct themselves in accordance with
our management philosophy and management policies. I am
committed to once again incorporating an ethos of respect forlaws into the basic rules of management. I ask everyone toattempt to review the applicable standards of conduct whenever
you are faced with doubt over your own actions or the actions ofanother or whenever you are faced with certain issues.
Alternatively, you are advised to consult with your superior or witha relevant section in such instances. These standards of conduct
state the basic points pertaining to standards of behavioral
judgment that apply to employees of our company. You shallengage in specific conduct that accords with the pertinent rules
and regulations, operational manuals, and other complianceprograms as whatever case at hand dictates. Technology and trust
are what define us. Please understand these points and conduct
yourselves appropriately as employees of TOYO TANSO.

こそ当社の基本です。その点を理解し当社社員として相応しい行動を採ることをお願いします。

Summary

会社で不祥事が発生する直接的な理由や動機は、いろいろ異なりますが、職場の雰囲気や環境、その職場特有の体質にも大いに影響があると考えられます。
長年培ってきた企業文化にもその要因はあります。仮にも当てはまることがあれば、職場のみなさんでどうしたら改善できるか話し合ってください。
また会社としてはリスク・コンプライアンス委員会を設置し、法令や社会規範の遵守ならびにその啓蒙活動に取り組みます。
社内相談制度等、
必要に応じて活用してください。

While there may be a variety of direct causes or motives to explain
the occurrence of scandals associated with the company, there
are major implications for the workplace climate andenvironment and the unique nature of such a workplace.
Contributing factors also lie in the corporate culture thatdevelops over many years. If such factors were to apply at all,employees are asked to discuss ways in which the situation canbe improved. As the company for its part will establish acommittee of corporate ethics, undertake initiatives to comply
with laws and social norms, and conduct an educational
campaign, employees are requested to consult and utilize such
resources like an internal consultation system as circumstancesdemand.
