CSR - Economic

As a business all of our corporate responsibilities in one way or another are linked to our economic responsibility; all of our stakeholders – from our customers and employees to our stockholders and the communities we live in – depend on us to maintain business practices that are sound financially and beneficial for all of our constituents.

In order to support a sustainable and strong economic foundation for our business, it is essential that our supply partners work closely with us to create safe and reliable products.

Nidec Sankyo assists us primarily through supplying stepping motors. The products they provide us with not only meet our quality requirements, but they are both free from harmful substances and comply with our strict environmental standards. Providing quality products that have minimal environmental impact is something we require from all of our partners, and to this end Nidec Sankyo have acquired ISO certifications and have established a framework for quality management to meet these demands. In terms of expressing our philosophy in developing win-win relationships with our partners, Nidec Sankyo is our benchmark.

As our business activities expand, we consider the process of examining the potential outcomes of various risks, along with the assessment of their impact and frequency an important facet of our commitment to our stakeholders. In the event of natural disasters or other accidents, we have developed a business continuity plan that minimizes the impact of these unforeseen events on our stakeholders and business operations by outlining countermeasures to ensure the quick restoration of core business functions. Thorough risk management allows Tamron to ensure that we are always able to continuously provide reliable and safe products to all of our customers, regardless of circumstances.
