While compliance generally tends to be interpreted to refer to following laws and regulations, Sekisui Chemical Group requires that all Group employees address compliance earnestly as a personal issue and take action, based on our understanding that the concept of compliance refers to acting in sincerity in accordance with the ethical viewpoints demanded of members of a company and professionals, as active members of society.

As part of our efforts in fiscal 2011, we continued compliance education for employees.
In addition to periodic compliance training for new employees, new managers, and other personnel, we also focused on educational activities targeting Group member companies. At the same time, we enhanced training on individual areas including the Antimonopoly Law, the Act against Delay in Payment of Subcontract Proceeds, etc. to Subcontractors, the Product Liability Law, and harassment.
Moreover the e-learning program conducted each year continued, looking at selected topics centered on information management and insider-trading regulations. Furthermore, we prepared new paper-based training materials to encourage employees in manufacturing sections, where personal computers are not used frequently, to undergo training.
