In 2021, a sustainability category was added to internal performance evaluations. We have made it mandatory to reflect environmental performance, such as greenhouse gas reduction, water resource and waste management, as well as social performance related to Labor Rights, Health and Safety, Supply Chain, and Corporate Citizenship, in the evaluation of DS Division's executives and organizations.

Going forward, we plan to continue to identify sustainability management evaluation items that are suitable for the characteristics of each business unit and department, and to supplement our performance evaluation system.
