Legal Compliance and Pollution Prevention✪正规极速赛车信誉平台

We recognize that every supplier has a moral responsibility not only to avoid the use of prohibited substances but also to handle hazardous substances (substances that could harm the environment or health) safely and to communicate the hazard information. We also recognize that there has been a clear global shift in the regulation of chemical substances. Specifically, countries around the world are moving from the traditional hazard-based approach, which focuses on the inherent properties of a chemical substance that make it potentially hazardous, to a more scientific risk-based approach, which focuses instead on the circumstances in which these potential hazards may cause harm. We, too, have shifted toward risk-based assessments over the past several years. In 2014, we listed up the hazards in the chemical substances we use. Referring to this list, we started examining the risks of the substances in 2015 on a priority basis. In 2017, we released our findings on the hazards and exposure risks in the stationery edition of the Guidelines for Managing Chemical Substances Included in Products. In 2018, we organized in-house training courses on chemical substance management to tighten compliance with chemical management regulations. We revised the stationary edition of the Guidelines for Managing Chemical Substances Included in Products in 2021 in response to the amendment of chemical substance regulations in Japan. We will continue to fulfill our responsibility to comply with chemical substance regulations and communicate chemical information.
