NEC has created a system for training chemical substance evaluators ("assessors" hereafter) as part of the system we have in place to evaluate and improve how our suppliers manage chemical substances. Based on our Product Substance Management Assessment Standard, we conduct quantitative evaluations of our suppliers and provide them with support in improving their level of chemical substance management. The Product Substance Management Assessment Standard is designed to evaluate the thoroughness of the chemical substance management systems being used by our suppliers, and generate improvements by highlighting strengths and weaknesses at both NEC and at each supplier. It is therefore imperative that we train assessors to evaluate the management systems of our suppliers and suggest improvement activities. NEC's assessor training system was introduced in FY 2006 and uses a curriculum devised by NEC. We plan to continue increasing the number of certified assessors as we work toward ensuring that our entire supply chain complies with global restrictions on the chemical substances used in products.
