President, Matsuda Sangyo Co., Ltd
As the business activities of our corporate group can involve danger, we take extreme care with safety. By ensuring safe operations, we strive to secure the safety and peace of mind our communities and employees, as well as maintain and improve the sustainability of our business and our corporate value.
The Matsuda Sangyo Group has compiled a list of various crisis events, including natural disasters, facility accidents, environmental pollution, and information leaks, and has documented the relevant organizations and procedures for responding to emergencies. In addition, we plan and conduct training drills every year based on the hypothetical occurrence of various events. By doing so, we repeatedly check and improve our procedures and strive to improve our response capabilities. We have built a system that allows us to respond swiftly and appropriately in the unlikely event of an emergency.
Matsuda Sangyo’s production departments hold regular fire drills conducted by the Selfdefense Fire Brigade. Fire drills are also conducted at Sayama Yard, which is the main base used by the Logistics Dept. Staff from the fire stations with jurisdiction over the area visit the premises to provide guidance on how to deal with incidents, and drills are conducted to ensure that employees are able to take appropriate action in the event of an emergency. Going forward, we will continue to conduct training drills to improve their precision, and further, conduct training drills for a wider scope of anticipated crisis events in order to build a system that will allow us to return swiftly to normal operations after an emergency occurs. We also consider it necessary to make preparations so that in the unlikely event of an emergency, a part of the production departments’ premises can be provided to local residents as a temporary evacuation site or for other purposes.
