Framework for promoting business ethics
Increasing the number of committee members
conducting workplace activities
Mitsubishi Motors has adopted an organization to ensure that
awareness of compliance spreads to each and every employee
by placing managers in charge of reinforcing compliance
awareness at multiple levels. In  scal 2014, we strengthened
this organization at the workplace level by assigning additional
committee members to conduct workplace activities at the
Mizushima and Nagoya plants.
To create a workplace environment that is not conducive
to scandals and promotes their early detection as well as self-
correction, Mitsubishi Motors has established internal disclosure
systems such as an internal Employee Counseling Of ce for
employees of MMC and af liated companies and an External
Counseling Of ce, established with the help of outside attor-
neys. The Employee Counseling Of ce responded to 82 cases in
scal 2014.
Safety Pledge Days
To prevent past incidents such as the regrettable recall problems
from being forgotten over time, in October 2004 we designated
January 10 and October 19 “Safety Pledge Days,” since two
fatal accidents occurred on those days involving large trucks

manufactured by Mitsubishi Fuso, a former Mitsubishi Motors
subsidiary. We conduct events to recon rm the signi cance of
these days at each of our workplaces. Around these days, we
hold company ethics discussion meetings at all our workplaces
to deliberate on immediate business ethics issues and the work-
place climate.
The Business Ethics Committee
Conducting plant inspections and conversing
with employees
The Mitsubishi Motors Business Ethics Committee was estab-
lished in June 2004 as an advisory body to the Board of Direc-
tors of Mitsubishi Motors. The committee, which is made up
solely of external experts, conducts guidance and consultation
from the viewpoint of external oversight and common sense.
In addition to company ethics, the committee discusses items
related to quality issues and corporate culture.
In scal 2014, this committee met 12 times, discussing 24
issues, including quality enhancement measures. MMC provided
explanations of the issues, and the committee responded with
its opinions, guidance and advice. In October 2014, the com-
mittee met at the Mizushima Plant, and committee members
inspected the plant and conversed with employees.
