Sustainable Supply Chain
Guidelines for Responsible Business Conduct in Supply Chains
Our aim in formulating "Guidelines for Responsible Business Conduct in Supply Chains" is that they will aid the development of responsible corporate activities among our supply-chain partners by helping them understand more deeply about NEC Group's Management for Sustainability, clarifying the kind of corporate activities which we would like our supply-chain partners to put into practice and the items which we want them to manage, monitor and disseminate amongst their own supply chains, from the perspectives of reducing business risk and generating new opportunities.
Cascading to Upstream Tier Suppliers and Contractors in Supply-Chain
In recent years, we have been faced with social and environmental issues which cannot be solved without the collaboration of upstream companies through supply-chain. The NEC Group ("NEC") established policies for important issues such as 1) business continuity, 2) responsible mineral procurement, 3) chemical substances regulations, 4) climate change, 5) OHS for hazardous work, 6) human trafficking. Supply-chain partners are requested to cascade each item to upstream tier suppliers and contractors and to cooperate to promote collaboration with them.
Business Continuity Policy
The interruption of a supply-chain partner's business due to certain disasters can have negative impacts not only on NEC's business but also on the living and social infrastructure of consumers. NEC has common policies governing business continuity plan (BCP) formulation
Responsible Mineral Procurement
NEC is engaging in responsible mineral procurement activities to ensure that NEC's mineral procurement does not promote conflict or violations of human rights.
Chemical substances Management Policy
NEC has a policy to manage chemical substances regulations appropriately. In order to comply with chemical substances regulations, it is necessary to monitor the chemical information of goods. Supply-chain partners are requested to provide NEC with the chemical information through upstream tier suppliers in the supply-chain automatically.
Action for Climate Change
NEC takes initiatives to reduce supply chain carbon-dioxide emissions to effectively-zero and Implement measures against climate change risks in the supply chain.
