Through these programs, participants deepen their understanding of applicable laws, regulations, and internal policies while also learning about harassment prevention and appropriate workplace communication. These efforts are aimed at preventing risks before they arise and strengthening our internal control system.
We remain committed to enhancing compliance awareness throughout our organization to ensure that we continue to be a company trusted by society.
