Omron Group Important Risks and Risk Information Management
We assign a rank of
S
to the most critical
management risks that threaten the existence
of the Group or call into question important
issues of corporate social responsibility. We
assign a rank of
A
to risks that may impede
important Group goals. These ranks are
determined annually by the Executive Council
after discussion in the Corporate Ethics & Risk
Management Committee.
　We have selected nearly 100 sources of
information from within Japan and around the
world to monitor important trends in external
risk. Each day we check risk information,
promptly sharing any important developments
with the appropriate individuals.
　As a rule, important risks identified within the
Group are reported to headquarters within 24
hours. In the event of a major disaster or
accident, for example, we will immediately
confirm the safety of local Group employees.
The results of this investigation are immediately
forwarded to the Global Risk Management and
One example of our compliance structure is our
whistleblower hotline, an effective means to
prevent corruption within the Group. We are
setting up this program at regional headquarters
throughout the world, with systems already
completed in Japan, the Americas, Europe,
Asia, and China. During fiscal 2012, we
received six reports with the only overseas
hotline existing in the Americas (compared to
20 reports in Japan). In fiscal 2015, we
received 21 reports across the five regions
