- Greenhouse gases include CO2 (carbon dioxide), CH4 (methane), N2O (nitrogen monoxide), HFCs (hydrofluorocarbons), PFCs (perfluorocarbons), SF6 (sulfur hexafluoride) and NF3 (nitrogen trifluoride).
- Calculated by scope according to the Greenhouse Gas Protocol Initiative classification, as follows.
Scope 1: Direct emissions of greenhouse gases generated from emission sources owned or controlled by the Company
Scope 2: Indirect emissions of greenhouse gases from the use of electricity, steam, and heat
Scope 3: Except for Scope 1 and Scope 2, other indirect emissions covering the upstream and downstream processes of the Company - All Scope 3 emissions since 2017 have been revised to reflect changes in Scope 3 Category 1 emission coefficients. For this reason, the total is not the same as the sum of each scope.

- 11Calculations are based on the number of employees including those seconded from NEC to other companies, but excluding those seconded from other companies to NEC. The average annual salary is shown as a gross amount, including overtime pay and bonuses.
In April 2024, NEC revised its compensation structure by adjusting the ratio of monthly salary to bonuses within annual employee compensation, increasing the proportion of monthly salary. The June bonus for the fiscal year under review was paid on the previous year’s compensation structure (prior to increasing the monthly salary ratio), resulting in a temporary increase in the average annual salary for the fiscal year under review compared to the previous fiscal year.
The disparity between wages of male and female workers at the Company and at many consolidated subsidiaries is in the 70th percentile. The different numbers of men and women in management positions, which have relatively high wages, is likely to have an impact on the overall disparity. The wage disparity by position for officers of the Company is around the mid-90th percentile, which is considered small.
