The post office network is an indispensable part of social infrastructure, and is at the heart of Japan Post Group's operations. We thus recognize issues in society to be our own, and are actively working towards a sustainable society starting from our supply chains to our entire business.
To ensure mutual understanding with our business partners and suppliers regarding our values and goals in sustainable procurement, we have released the Japan Post Group's Approach to Procurement Activity. Our approach outlined in this policy are in compliance with the Ten Principles stipulated by the UN Global Compact in the four areas of human rights, labor, environment, and anti-corruption. By defining specific requirements in the Japan Post Group CSR Procurement Guidelines, we ask for active cooperation from our business partners and suppliers.
