The Tokyu Fudosan Holdings Group recognizes that respecting the human rights of employees and all stakeholders involved in its businesses is an essential requirement of a company with global operations and an expectation placed in all companies. Then, in December 2019, we formulated the Tokyu Fudosan Holdings Group Human Rights Policy. It is based on this belief that we support the Universal Declaration of Human Rights and other international human rights doctrines and conduct with our suppliers to carry out business activities that fully respect human rights.
We take action both inside and outside of Japan to ensure that we do not violate the human rights of local residents due to economic disparities. We also support UNICEF’s Children’s Rights and Business Principles in an effort to effectively eliminate child labor and respect human rights.
We also expect all stakeholders, including business partners, to respect human rights.
Tokyu Fudosan Holdings Group (hereinafter, "the Group") solves social issues through our business activities and works with stakeholders to realize a sustainable society and growth. The Group recognizes that respecting the human rights of employees and all stakeholders involved in its businesses is an essential requirement of a company with global operations.
The Group upholds and respects human rights as outlined in the International Bill of Human Rights (Universal Declaration of Human Rights, the International Covenant on Civil and Political Rights, and the International Covenant on Economic, Social and Cultural Rights) and the ILO Declaration on Fundamental Principles and Rights at Work. It promotes responsible management according to the UN Guiding Principles on Business and Human Rights, as well as the principles of the UN Global Compact. Whenever there is a conflict between internationally recognized human rights standards and the laws of a country in which it operates, the Group seeks ways to uphold global human rights principles.
The Group states “Respect human rights” in its Code of Conduct and encourages individual employees to give due consideration to human rights in their activities. In addition to respecting basic human rights in compliance with the local laws and regulations implemented in the regions where it has bases, it takes steps to prevent discriminatory behavior and speech, sexual harassment and power abuse while making efforts to respect the diverse values, individuality, and privacy of individuals. The Tokyu Fudosan Holdings Group Human Rights Policy (hereinafter, "this Policy") serves as a detailed explanation concerning the requirement to respect human rights in the Group Code of Conduct.
This Policy applies to all Group officers and employees, and the necessary education and training is provided. The operating officer in charge of human resources is responsible for the application of this Policy. Business partners of the Group are expected to support this Policy and to work with the Group to protect human rights.
The Group carries out human rights due diligence to identify any actual or potential impacts that business activities may have on human rights, and the Group then prevents or mitigates them. Whenever it is discovered that the Group's activities have caused or contributed to adverse impacts on human rights, the Group will work to remedy the situation. The Group will make efforts to rectify any business or service that may be linked to adverse impacts on human rights through the actions of business partners or other relevant parties. A mechanism will also be established that allows internal and external stakeholders to report and consult on Group activities that may affect human rights.
As the Group's wide-ranging business areas, including real estate, largely affect communities and society, it is essential to work closely with a variety of stakeholders. With this in mind, the Group engages in dialogue with its stakeholders, including employees, local communities, business partners, and customers. It also shares the progress of its efforts on its website and in its integrated reports.
In order to avoid any infringement of human rights as a result of business activities, the Group will maintain a close dialogue with stakeholders and external experts concerning social and environmental changes and its business direction, and it will identify priority human rights issues as they arise.

The Diversity Council to Human Resources Department, established as a subcommittee, leads relevant management activities across the entire Group. Day-to-day responsibilities and resources for relevant functions have been allocated to Human Resources Department.

In FY2022, we have reviewed the risks in line with changes in the Group's business and the materiality risks in our long-term vision, and have organized them into the following risk map.
人Human Rights Risk Map
As a result of reviewing the impact on human rights caused by our business activities among material human rights issues, we set "sustainable procurement (concrete formwork lumber)" and "consideration of human rights in the supply chain (implementation of due diligence on forced labor and child labor)" as KPIs for the fiscal 2030 target in our long-term vision. We are promoting human rights due diligence in our supply chain. As for suppliers, we are prioritizing "consideration of human rights for foreign technical intern trainees (workers).
As a specific initiative in human rights due diligence, we conduct human rights questionnaires, evaluations, and dialogues with suppliers to construction companies that are important to us as stakeholders. We will continue to engage with stakeholders to identify outstanding human rights issues and prevent and mitigate human rights risks.
Much of plywood used for concrete formwork in Japan is made of south-sea timber logged in Malaysia, Indonesia and other nations, where some NGOs have pointed out that land grabbing in indigenous peoples' territories and environmental destruction have become problems.
In view of this situation, the Tokyu Fudosan Holdings Group takes human rights issues and environment protection seriously and pledge to obtain 100% of our plywood for our constructions’ concrete formworks to from sustainable sources including FSC or PEFC certified or domestically sourced by year 2030.
Regarding the potential new projects and the existing projects, Tokyu Land Corporation respects the human rights of stakeholders regarding the project itself and business activities in the local community by continuously evaluating risks related to respect for human rights in accordance with our risk management process.
The Group has built a framework for human rights due diligence and have been continually assessing human rights as a business risk. And in order to increase the effect, if a problem is discovered, we will continue to improve it. If it is determined that our business activities have caused a negative impact on human rights or have been involved, we will provide remedies to the affected parties.
In our group, in response to the human rights issues related to foreign technical intern trainees in Japan, respecting the human rights of foreign technical intern trainees is a priority issue for human rights risks. Tokyu Fudosan Holdings investigated the status of acceptance of foreign technical intern trainees at group companies and identified issues related to foreign technical intern trainees. We will organize matters that may cause problems in the activities of foreign technical intern trainees, such as remuneration, accommodation facilities, and living, and create requests (guidelines) regarding the treatment of foreign technical intern trainees at construction sites. bottom. Each group company communicates these guidelines to business partners when requesting quotations or conducting questionnaire surveys of suppliers, in an effort to avoid, prevent, and mitigate human rights violations.
The Group requests all stakeholders to respect human rights through our sustainable procurement policy. For example, Tokyu Land Corporation clearly communicates its expectations regarding human rights by communicating its human rights policy and sustainable procurement policy when conducting regular questionnaire surveys and requesting estimates for construction costs to construction companies that are business partners. In particular, regarding foreign technical interns, which has become a problem in recent years, we decide on suppliers after evaluating the interns' stance on human rights.
At the 2021 Supplier Safety Convention, Tokyu Re・design Corporation gave a notice and explained from the president about the human rights consideration and timber procurement of foreign technical intern trainees for sustainable procurement.
