Responsible Care Management

Mitsui Chemicals is rolling out Responsible Care activities to subsidiaries and affiliates in Japan and overseas as a part of efforts to promote Responsible Care across the Group as a whole.

Mitsui Chemicals is building an information network across the five regions where its subsidiaries and affiliates operate: China, Asia, Europe, the Americas, and Japan as its center. This network gathers Responsible Care-related information from industry associations located in each region, which after being summarized and analyzed by the Head Office is shared throughout the Mitsui Chemicals Group.
As part of the Responsible Care activity programs in each region, the Company holds RC meetings that gather together the staff in charge of Responsible Care of various subsidiaries and affiliates. The meetings are opportunities for subsidiaries and affiliates to mutually learn about accidents and occupational injuries through analyses of examples, as well as to learn about best practices. RC meetings have been held in China, the Americas, and the Asia-Pacific region in the past, but starting in fiscal 2022, the RC meetings will also be held in Europe, where interest in chemical regulations is growing.

The Mitsui Chemicals Group’s Responsible Care activities are highly esteemed by external parties.

In fiscal 2022, our affiliates received awards in the areas of security disaster prevention and occupational safety/health.
