With the aims of preventing risks that could have grave consequences for management and minimizing damage in the event that adverse events do occur, we identify risks in each function and make decisions on how to respond in the Compliance and Risk Management Committee and general meetings.

For each type of risk in safety, quality, and the environment, the department in charge has established regulations and key points and conducts proper business management, such as implementing measures as needed based on assessments of operational status.

Moreover, Risk Management and Response Guidelines have been established. These guidelines summarize basic matters related to risks and show the behaviors to adopt to prevent potential risks and to respond appropriately and quickly in the event that problems occur.

Earthquakes occur frequently in Japan, and we have put into place a crisis management system in the event of a massive earthquake based on the principles of human life first, community support, and early recovery. Specifically, in addition to infrastructure and system measures based on the project, we have conducted resilience training more than 100 times for directors and members of anti-disaster departments since fiscal 2013. These efforts are based on our belief that improving the skills of response personnel is essential. We have also established specific procedures for the recovery of affected buildings, facilities, and processes and for alternative production in a production recovery system. Recovery training for design drawings and other data is also carried out so that product development can be continued even after disasters. In addition, workshops to strengthen crisis management not only in our own companies but also at affiliates and suppliers are conducted regularly. Assessments using anti-earthquake measures implementation status check sheets, clarification of weak points with graphs, introduction of responses taken at Toyoda Gosei and other companies, and cooperative preparation of business continuation plans （BCPs） are carried out.
