CSR Activities Based on Corporate
Philosophy
The OKI Group, as described in its corporate philosophy,
aims at contributing to the improvement of the quality of
life for people around the world through its core business,
namely the provision of products and services that can serve
the development of the information age. What underlies the
group’s CSR initiatives is our commitment to the pursuit and
fulfi llment of this idea.
Committed to CSR, OKI established the OKI Group Char-
ter of Corporate Conduct as a statement of values that OKI
Group companies need to share, in order to promote Group-
wide CSR activities. In addition to this, OKI set up the OKI
Group Code of Conduct to be conformed to by all OKI execu-
tive offi cers and employees. This Code of Conduct has been
incorporated into OKI’s educational programs. We have also
defi ned seven priority themes to be pursued. The CSR Divi-
sion, an organization dedicated to CSR-related efforts, takes
the initiative in promoting activities under these themes. By
assuring that all OKI executive offi cers and employees ob-
serve the Charter and Code and behave accordingly, the OKI
Group strives to fulfi ll its social responsibility in accordance
with the corporate philosophy.
OKI Participates in United Nations
Global Compact
In May 2010, OKI joined the Unit-
ed Nations Global Compact. The
Global Compact is a CSR initiative
proposed by then-UN Secretary-
General Kofi Annan at the World
Economic Forum meeting held
in January 1999. The OKI Group
supports the Global Compact’s
10 principles in the areas of hu-
man rights, labor, environment,
and anti-corruption, and will enforce its CSR activities by
gaining a better understanding of its social responsibilities in
the context of its global business operations.
OKI Group Environmental Management
The OKI Group regards environmental initiatives as among
the most important elements of its business activities. Un-
der the OKI Group Environmental Policy, based on which
we conduct our environmental management, we coordinate
and implement environmental management systems across
the entire Group, and implement measures guided by the
OKI Group Environmental Activity Plan that sets out mid-
term and annual targets to reduce the environmental impact
of the Group’s operations.
The “OKI Group Environmental Vision 2020” adopted in
April 2012 sets a course for the Group’s environmental man-
agement based on global environmental issues and with the
objective of contributing to realizing a better earth environ-
ment. We are stepping up measures related to our business
activities and products to achieve targets for 2020 in the four
areas of realizing a low-carbon society, pollution prevention,
resource recycling, and biodiversity conservation.
