VALQUA worked out the Compliance Manual in April 2003 as
the guideline for compliance management (law-abiding management). |
|
Compliance management (law-abiding corporate management) refers to as the execution of work, observing
inside and outside rules surrounding the company, such as laws, ordinances, and in-house regulations while conducting
corporate management. Compliance management is Code of Conduct or ethics that must be followed by responsible companies
acting as members of society. |
|
In order to work out a basic policy of compliance and to
supervise management, VALQUA has organized standing Compliance Committee,
involving directors. Under the Compliance Committee is operating
Compliance Promoting Committee composed of managers of major divisions
to work out compliance rules, to plan enlightenment and education,
and to promote compliance activities. |
|
Each VALQUA group member receives Compliance Manual (booklet)
as a guideline for work execution, and is guided and enlightened
on compliance. |
|
Compliance Manual (booklet) is composed of (1) manual on general matters such as environmental preservation
and proper use of information systems; (2) sales activities manual on observance of anticompetitive act, export and
trade control, specified chemical substance control, etc.; (3) manual on workplace environment, such as sexual harassment;
and (4) manual on private actions such as insider dealing and interest conflict actions. The entire manual outlines
individual items, referring to instances that should be avoided. |
|
The Compliance Manual (booklet) is distributed to newly employed members. Enlightenment and education
activities on law-abiding corporate management are carried out, utilizing in-house training and other occasions. |
