Toshiba Group promotes CSR initiatives throughout its supply chain in order to build continuously beneficial relationships with
suppliers, and to promote CSR in areas such as the environment, labor and human rights. Our efforts include improving the
working environment for our suppliers’ employees and reducing environmental impact.
The Concept of CSR Management in the Supply Chain
In FY2014, we held the briefings by visiting lectures in Tokyo and
in Shanghai to our suppliers. We explained the Toshiba Group’s
CSR management and its status of the implementation as well as
CSR global standard to share the same understandings.
We also requested the suppliers in Japan and overseas to
perform CSR self-checks in accordance with the EICC Code of
Conduct and confirmed each company of the implementation
status, in terms of compliance with laws and regulations, human
rights, labor, occupational health and safety as well as
environment in their operations.
In October 2014, we revised the Toshiba Group Procurement
Policy to include the promotion of activities that are in line
with the UN Global Compact and the EICC Code of Conduct.*
We have requested our overseas and domestic suppliers to
abide by this revised content.
* EICC is an abbreviation for the Electronic Industry Citizenship Coalition. A set of standards
that seeks to ensure CSR in the supply chain, composed of five sections: labor,
occupational health and safety, ethics, environment, and management systems.
Toshiba Group requests our suppliers to consider human
rights, labor, occupational health and safety as well as
environment in their operations, and we hold briefings on
CSR management in the supply chains and monitor their
implementation in business sites in Japan and overseas. In
FY2014, we held briefings on the policy to 5,908 companies
(cumulative numbers), conducted CSR surveys in 6,957
companies (cumulative numbers) and requested to perform
self-checks to 814 companies (cumulative numbers). In cases
where issues were found, we provided support and
guidance on how to make improvements.
