Corporate฀Social฀Responsibility฀(CSR)฀Activities
CSR฀activities฀are฀becoming฀an฀even฀more฀important฀part฀of฀the฀activities฀required฀of฀companies฀
to฀ensure฀the฀sustainable฀development฀of฀society.฀The฀Casio฀Group฀undertakes฀various฀initiatives฀
to฀fulll฀its฀corporate฀social฀responsibilities.
PRINCIPAL฀MEASURES฀TAKEN
In฀April฀2004,฀Casio฀established฀its฀CSR฀Operations฀Section฀to฀oversee฀CSR฀activities.฀In฀
December,฀Casio฀formed฀a฀CSR฀Committee฀to฀discuss฀CSR฀basic฀policies฀and฀priority฀items.฀The฀
Committee฀comprises฀the฀President฀who฀acts฀as฀chairman,฀directors฀and฀corporate฀auditors,฀and฀

CSR฀GUIDELINES฀AND฀STAFF฀AWARENESS
All฀employees฀are฀required฀to฀observe฀the฀guidelines฀contained฀in฀the฀Charter฀of฀Creativity฀for฀
Casio,฀as฀well฀as฀the฀Casio฀Common฀Commitment.฀To฀ensure฀that฀they฀put฀principles฀of฀the฀
Charter฀into฀practice฀in฀the฀course฀of฀day-to-day฀operations,฀we฀publish฀a฀bi-weekly฀in-house฀
online฀magazine฀to฀convey฀messages฀directly฀from฀the฀top฀management฀to฀Casio฀employees.฀The฀
staff฀also฀reports฀on฀CSR฀efforts฀that฀are฀underway,฀and฀provide฀their฀impressions฀and฀feedback.
฀ Casio฀has฀also฀drafted฀a฀Code฀of฀Conduct.฀Employees฀are฀required฀to฀behave฀in฀an฀appropriate฀
manner,฀which฀includes฀compliance฀with฀all฀laws฀and฀ordinances,฀respect฀for฀human฀rights,฀and฀
separation฀of฀personal฀affairs฀from฀business.
PROTECTING฀PERSONAL฀DATA
To฀protect฀against฀leakages฀of฀personal฀data,฀Casio฀established฀the฀Protection฀of฀Personal฀
Data฀Project฀Group฀in฀June฀2004.฀We฀conducted฀a฀study฀to฀determine฀the฀type฀and฀amount฀
of฀personal฀data฀held฀by฀each฀department.฀Based฀on฀this฀study,฀the฀Company฀established฀a฀
framework฀for฀preventing฀leakages฀of฀personal฀data,฀including฀a฀set฀of฀guidelines฀and฀employee฀
training฀courses.฀We฀applied฀for฀“Privacy฀Mark®*”฀in฀March฀of฀this฀year.฀At฀present,฀we฀have฀
limited฀personal฀data฀to฀the฀barest฀minimum.฀Upon฀receipt฀of฀such฀data,฀the฀Project฀Group฀must฀
be฀notied,฀and฀the฀information฀must฀be฀stored฀in฀a฀secure฀place.฀In฀the฀case฀of฀outsourcing,฀the฀
Companies฀rendering฀services฀are฀obliged฀to฀take฀preventive฀measures฀against฀data฀leakages,฀
and฀must฀sign฀condentiality฀agreements.฀
