Sustainability Governance

The Sustainability Committee (the “Committee”) plays a leadership role in driving our sustainability measures. Hiroyuki Fukuda, Representative Director, President and Chief Executive Officer of NTVHD, serves as the chairperson of the Committee, and executive officers of NTVHD serve as the members of the Committee.

Under the Committee, there is a Sustainability Office functioning as an operational organization, along with four working divisions (the “Working division for Climate Change Countermeasures,” “Working division for Human Rights,” “Working division for Human Capital,” and “Working division for Media Communication”). These divisions consist of the heads of business departments of each Group company and examine measures to address sustainability issues, report to the Committee, and make recommendations to the Committee.

Meetings of the Committee are held twice a year, where the policies, targets and roadmaps of the Group as a whole are determined based on the reports and recommendations of the working divisions. The Board of Directors receives reports from the Committee on important matters and the status of its activities, and determines response policies and other significant matters.
