Basic Approach
Human rights are the rights that all people have, and are one of the universal values.In recent years, as people have become more aware of human rights, there has been a growing interest in the magnitude of the impact that business has on human rights in corporate activities.SDGs (Sustainable Development Goals) adopted by the United Nations in September 2015 aims to "eliminate world poverty" and "realize a sustainable world" based on the philosophy of "no one is left behind." Human rights are the foundation of the 17 goals.The Ricoh Lease Group complies with the International Code of Human Rights (such as the International Bill of Human Rights and the ILO Declaration on Fundamental Principles and Rights at Work), and strives to respect human rights in the practice of the Ricoh Lease Group Code of Conduct and aims for a sustainable society.
