CSR and Sustainability Promotion Structure

CSR and Sustainability Promotion Structure

SUMCO provides high-quality silicon wafer products that help solve environmental and social issues while also promoting sustainability activities that address environmental, social, and governance issues within our own business processes. In our activities, we have established the “Sustainability Promotion Council,” chaired by the Chairman and CEO, with the attendance of Executive Officers at the managing level and above. Additionally, we have appointed an “Executive Officer Responsible for Sustainability Promotion” to oversee sustainability promotion activities. The Sustainability Promotion Council is held, in principle, twice a year, focusing on materiality (key issues) identified in each E/S/G area. During these councils, each division reports on and deliberates their sustainability promotion activities. The main contents are annually and regularly reported to the Board of Directors by the Executive Officer Responsible for Sustainability Promotion, and active discussions are held with the participation of Outside Directors.
