- Corporate Social Responsibility
On April 15, 2016, we announced the “Declaration of Compliance Management” as given below.
Compliance to laws and regulations serves as a foundation for various business activities, and no business activities can be continued without compliance. We work in the important field of “water and environment” associated with and safety of communities and the trust of the society is essential for our business. Compliance is an essential approach for us to be accepted by society and to continue our consulting services. All board members and employees of NJS are required to firmly maintain awareness of compliance as the first priority value and to act in accordance with it.
Actions against compliance agitate the continuation of business activities and jeopardize the viability of a company itself. In order to absolutely avoid such a situation, we always need to have high awareness of compliance. It is important for us to always pay attention to and understanding laws and regulations, company rules, various standards, and other rules that are applied to each business, and to correct ourselves to prevent violation of compliance. This is responsibility of all board members and employees who engage in the businesses.
We have decided to reestablish our compliance system and promote various measures to thoroughly carry out compliance. In order to do so, we will change our awareness and attitudes. In order to achieve the philosophy of contributing to society in the water and environmental field, in order for every employee to develop into a more excellent consultant, and in order for NJS to realize further development, compliance is inevitable. I, the President of NJS, declare to lead the activity and require all board members and employees to follow it.
