activities ensuring “occupational safety and health” and “process safety and disaster prevention” are clearly described in the Kao Responsible Care Policy. Accordingly, when occupational accidents occur, we analyze the causes and take necessary measures to prevent similar accidents in the future, protecting our employees while maintaining safe and stable operations. In addition, Kao provides extensive safety education to all employees regardless of their employee status at the general training sessions for new hires and training sessions organized by individual divisions in order to boost safety awareness.
