Initiatives to Respect Human Rights

Lacto Japan Group recognizes that respecting human rights in all aspects of our business activities is a critical responsibility. As part of this commitment, we will provide raining for employees and implement human rights due diligence.

Human Rights Policy

Lacto Japan Group upholds “Fairness” as a core value within our management philosophy and as a guiding principle for all business activities. Based on this value, we have established our Human Rights Policy, through which we seek to respect the human rights of all individuals affected by our business activities and to fulfill our responsibility to protect those rights.

Framework and Systems

For details on Lacto Japan Group’s sustainability management framework, including our initiatives related to human rights, please refer to the link below.

Risk Management

At Lacto Japan Group, discussions on risk management are conducted through the Risk Management Committee, chaired by the President. Human rights risks are overseen and managed primarily by the Corporate Sustainability Department.

Establishment of Reporting and Consultation Channels

Lacto Japan has established internal reporting channels that allow employees to seek advice or report concerns with confidence, helping to prevent legal violations and misconduct. In addition to internal contacts, we have also put in place a system that enables employees to report directly to an external attorney, with full consideration given to the protection and privacy of whistleblowers. Through these mechanisms, we are working to foster a healthy and highly transparent corporate culture.

Education and Training

Lacto Japan regularly conducts harassment-prevention training and internal briefings on human rights to deepen understanding and raise awareness of human rights issues. By fostering a workplace in which every employee correctly understands human rights and respects one another, we work to maintain a fair and safe working environment.

Human Rights Due Diligence

Lacto Japan Group has established a human rights due diligence framework and continues to implement it on an ongoing basis. We disclose the results of these efforts with transparency and work together with stakeholders to advance the respect for human rights.
