Epson wants to help solve societal issues and achieve sustainable growth through sustainability initiatives based on the idea of building social trust, the concept that underlies Epson's Management Philosophy. We are building social trust by complying with local laws and regulations in the countries and regions where we operate, as well as by honoring international sustainability initiatives such as the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) and the Responsible Business Alliance's Code of Conduct. Furthermore, as outlined in the United Nations Guiding Principles on Business and Human Rights, Epson's responsibility extends to its value chain. To attain our goal of achieving sustainability and enriching communities, we are working to ensure socially responsible supply chains and sustainable procurement from the standpoints of human rights and sustainability. In addition, with the cooperation of our business partners and the collaboration of our suppliers, we will proactively take on new challenges, including initiatives meant to solidify business continuity management, transit to 100% renewable electricity, and reduce greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions on our way toward building a green supply chain.
Epson will strengthen its partnerships based on the fundamental stance of fairness, equity, and mutual prosperity with business partners, while working to build a responsible supply chain.
