ESG Management for Vision2030
(Long-term vision)

The Group is stepping up its ESG efforts to help realize a sustainable society, such as by becoming carbon neutral. We promote our ESG initiatives in line with the three pillars of stepping up efforts for the environment, promoting employee engagement and diversity, and enhancing governance and information disclosures. We have set KPIs for each of these pillars. In addition, to urge our people to take on challenges and speed up management decision making, we will continue working to reform our management foundation by overhauling operational processes and leveraging cutting-edge technologies. Through hard work, we aim to grow sustainably with society, achieving sustainable corporate growth while helping realize a sustainable society through these initiatives.

Material Issues for
Sustainability Management

As part of the promotion of ESG management, DTS identified issues that have an outsize impact on both the Group and its stakeholders as material issues. To do so, the Sustainability Committee first identified issues of high importance on the axes of social value and economic value in light of our long-term outlook, medium-term management plan and key points for its achievement.
The Board of Directors then discussed these issues and made the final decision on the adoption of the material issues.
