Toshiba Corporation (hereinafter, Toshiba) is fully committed to carrying out its corporate social responsibilities and regards this as a main pillar of corporate management.
As an applicant member of the Electronic Industry Citizenship Coalition (EICC), Toshiba fully supports the vision and goals of the EICC:
Vision: Through the application of high standards we can create better social, economic and environmental outcomes for all those involved in the Electronics and ICT supply chain. This includes increased efficiency and productivity for customers and suppliers, improved conditions for workers, economic development and a cleaner environment for local communities.
Mission: To deliver these benefits through a shared approach to implementing the EICC Code of Conduct. This approach will reduce duplication, focus efforts on positive social and environmental change, build supply chain capabilities in social responsibility and employ a process that solicits feedback from stakeholders.
Toshiba commits to progressively align its own operations with the provisions of the EICC code of conduct and to support and encourage its own first-tier suppliers to do the same.
Wherever possible, Toshiba will seek to adopt the EICC approach and tools in practical ways in the spirit of the industry's common goals.
