CSR Goals

The Minebea Group believes that proper utilization of a regular PDCA (Plan, Do, Check, Action) cycle is important for promoting its CSR initiatives. Until FY2009, we engaged in environmental initiatives based on annual goals established for our Environmental Protection Plan. However, beginning in FY2010 we have been practicing goal-setting for all of our CSR initiatives. This approach will allow us to properly manage the progress of our CSR initiatives and link them to CSR initiatives for the upcoming fiscal year.
