Basic Approach

The HIS Group primarily engages in businesses that connect people across various regions both domestically and internationally, with respect for human rights forming the foundation of our group's sustainability.
We believe it is important for each of our executives and employees to respect one another's human rights, while also conducting business in a manner that respects the human rights of our customers, business partners, local communities, and others within the supply chain.
To clarify our group's stance on respecting human rights and to fulfill our corporate responsibility in this regard, we established the "HIS Group Human Rights Policy" in December 2024.

We will work to ensure this policy is thoroughly understood within the HIS Group and firmly integrated into our business activities. Additionally, We encourage our business partners to understand and support this policy so that, together, we conduct activities that respect human rights and address related issues. And we will build and implement a framework for human rights due diligence.

HIS Group Human Rights Policy

Regarding the response to the Modern Slavery Act

Formulation Process

We support and respect international standards, including:

 

  • The International Bill of Human Rights
  • ILO Declaration on Fundamental Principles and Rights at Work
  • Global Code of Ethics for Tourism

 

We are guided by the UN Guiding Principles on Business and Human Rights and promote initiatives for respecting human rights.
We comply with the laws of each country and region in which we operate. In cases where conflicts arise between internationally recognised human rights standards and local laws, we will strive to maximize our adherence to international standards.

The process includes understanding the company's current situation, drafting a human rights policy, dialogue with experts, agreement by the Sustainability Promotion Committee, and approval by the management team.
