Basic Sustainability Policy
"Another Step Toward a Better Tomorrow"
EM Systems is aiming to develop a sustainable society through its businesses, based on its management philosophy of "contributing to the health of people and the Earth." One significant effort toward achieving sustainability was establishing the SDGs Promotion Committee within the company organization in 2021. This committee has been responsible for identifying the SDGs to work toward as well as internal and external issues, and focuses on activities that incorporate SDGs as part of management under the motto, "Another Step Toward a Better Tomorrow." Four core challenges (materiality) were also created from 2021 as key indices to adopt while promoting sustainability management.
As a company focused on providing a safe and secure lifestyle and "contributing to the health of people and the Earth" for all, EM Systems is increasing its dialogue with all stakeholders as it seeks to achieve a carbon-free society and create an even better organization and company workplace. Through its business activities, EM Systems together with society as a whole, is committed to finding solutions to issues that affect our society.
Message from Top Management
Our management philosophy begins with the phrase, "We will continue to contribute to the health of people and the planet.
In order to realize a sustainable society, it is essential for us to protect the global environment by halting climate change and to contribute to the maintenance of everyone's health in order to continue to be an indispensable company in the world.
In addition to further contributing to the medical/welfare industry through various system businesses, we will continue to take on new challenges as a company that can challenge and contribute to solving various social issues. We will also strategically incorporate actions for the realization of a sustainable society into our management and promote our business by setting long-term goals.
In addition, we have developed a new corporate brand logo, "#TX," to further promote understanding of our management philosophy among our stakeholders and to reconstruct a new brand identity.
"#TX" is the catchphrase for the new concept, which expresses our determination to transform the "medical field and the nursing care domain" to be connected by the word "#Thanks." By connecting with words of gratitude, we will create a virtuous cycle for organizations and companies.
All EM Systems Group employees will work together to solve social issues through our business and continue our efforts to realize a sustainable society.
Internal structure for promoting sustainability
EM Systems has established a Sustainability Committee.
The Sustainability Committee, which is chaired by the president, is composed of executives and mainly discusses the promotion of sustainability management and how to promote and realize sustainability.
The ESG Promotion Group is responsible for planning and disclosing appropriate information to stakeholders for the achievement of the SDGs and the realization of ESG measures.
Assessing Materiality (key issues)
We identified key issues in strategy meetings using international standards like GRI Standards and Sustainable Development Goals as a guide, and also called upon experts for further discussion before assessing Materiality for the EM Systems Group in fiscal 2021.
Relation between Materiality and SDGs Targets
Materiality (key issues) assessment process
| Step1 | Create a list of management issues or social issues that need to be addressed over the medium to long term, identify key issues from stakeholders' perspective, and select items with the greatest severity |
|---|---|
| Step2 | Use GRI and other international standards as a guide to carefully examine details of the management issues or social issues requiring addressing over the medium to long term as identified in Step 1 |
| Step3 | Coordinate details of identified key issues based on feedback from external experts, hold several Board of Directors meetings and management meetings before identifying Materiality (key issues) in the sustainability context |
