Sustainability

Hisamitsu Pharmaceutical considers the enhancement of corporate governance to be a material issue as a mechanism for transparent, fair, prompt, and bold decision-making, considering the perspectives of shareholders, customers, employees, and local communities. Positioning the establishment of an agile organizational structure capable of adapting to changes in the management environment as an important measure, the Company carries out the structural reform.
Based on this belief, we have optimized the number of Directors for the purpose of strengthening the functions of the Board of Directors and expediting decision-making, and introduced the executive officer system for the purpose of clarifying roles and responsibilities in the execution of business operations.
We shall continue to enhance the relationship of trust with our stakeholders as a good corporate citizen by improving transparency, observing compliance, and upholding corporate ethics in our activities.
