Risk Management

Basic Policy

Based on the "Basic Risk Management Policy," the Group will constantly identify, evaluate, and analyze risks that could have a significant impact on business performance and financial position and hinder the smooth operation and growth of its businesses, and will build a system to minimize risks and respond quickly to them.

Risk Management System

In accordance with the "Loss Risk Management Regulations," the Risk and Compliance Committee, chaired by President and Chief Executive Ofcer, annually identifies and evaluates risks associated with business activities based on criteria such as the likelihood of an event occurring and the degree of impact if it does occur. The Committee is responsible for identifying and evaluating risks across the entire company and in all business areas, setting priority countermeasures, and overseeing responses in the event of a serious risk event. Based on the policies decided by the Committee, business divisions and subsidiaries implement compliance programs in cooperation with each Group company, including providing education and training throughout the Group. Based on the Committee's assessment results, the Committee identifies risks that require particular management attention, determines countermeasures to be implemented, and monitors their implementation. The identification and evaluation of risks, monitoring results, and important choices and decisions regarding countermeasures are regularly reported to the Board Director. Furthermore, if legal issues arise in various aspects of risk management, we have established a system that allows us to consult with our corporate lawyers as appropriate and receive advice and guidance.

BCP (Business Continuity Plan)

We have formulated a Business Continuity Plan (BCP) based on the following policies to ensure safety and ensure the early recovery of business operations in anticipation of emergencies that could have a significant impact on business continuity, such as large-scale natural disasters, including earthquakes, tsunamis, wind and flood damage, and volcanic eruptions, as well as fires, accidents, terrorist attacks, and pandemics.

We have prepared a BCP manual and have established procedures for initiating a disaster countermeasure headquarters headed by the president in the event of a disaster, and for policy decision-making and dissemination. Disaster supplies are fully stockpiled, and are distributed to employees on a regular basis regardless of their expiration date, from the perspective of raising awareness in peacetime and training for responding in the event of a disaster. We are also taking steps to prepare for emergencies, such as implementing e-learning on disaster prevention, regularly participating in disaster prevention drills at each base, and conducting initial response training.
Furthermore, to share information across the entire Tanseisha Group, we have introduced a BCP safety confirmation system, and are reviewing manuals and operations through training on confirming the safety of employees and their families, and each base, coordinating between bases, and checking the damage status at operation sites.

Information Security Measures/Policies

Based on the "Information Security Policy," Tanseisha is promoting activities to ensure the safe and proper use and operation management of information systems. In addition to continually working to improve information security, such as strengthening the security of client PCs in preparation for teleworking, the IT Service Management Committee evaluates and determines security risks before introducing large-scale systems.
Regarding personal information, we have organized a PMS Committee, and through committee activities, we are promoting initiatives in line with the PDCA cycle, such as management reviews. In addition, we have acquired the Privacy Mark, which certifies that personal information is appropriately protected in accordance with our personal information protection management system. For more information, please see our Personal Information Protection Policy page.

Initiatives to protect intellectual property rights

We are taking measures to protect intellectual property rights, such as implementing educational programs to acquire knowledge about intellectual property, holding online seminars on the revised Design Act, and encouraging people to take and obtain qualifications for the national Intellectual Property Management Skills Examination.

Cut off all ties, including transactions, with antisocial forces

In accordance with the "Basic Policy on Corporate Governance," we will cut off all relationships with antisocial forces, including business relationships. We will also firmly reject any unjust demands made by antisocial forces and take legal action, both civil and criminal. Furthermore, we regularly hold in-house seminars on how to handle antisocial forces, in order to raise awareness among employees.
