Basic Approach to Corporate Governance

Daiseki considers corporate activities in compliance with laws and social norms as the most crucial issue in enhancing transparency and soundness in our corporate management. We adopt an Audit and Supervisory Committee structure, by which three outside directors form an Audit and Supervision Committee to further enhance the supervisory functions of the Board of Directors. One of the outside directors is a woman, who adds valuable input from a female perspective.
In May 2020, we introduced an executive officer system with the aim of clarifying responsibilities for business execution, streamlining management, and accelerating decision-making. Authority necessary for the conduct of routine corporate activities is delegated to the managers of our Works and the presidents of our Group companies. Management Meetings are held with the participation of directors, executive officers, managers of Works, directors of Group companies, and other staff.
In May 2023, to further strengthen our governance, we added another outside director with corporate management experience, making the majority of the board members outside directors.
