Marubeni official website. This page offers you information about our Supply Chain Sustainability Survey (Year ended March 31, 2018).
To confirm the status of compliance with the Basic Supply Chain CSR Policy, Marubeni conducts on-site inspections of suppliers who are based in countries designated by the FTSE4Good Global Index as carrying a high risk associated with supply chain labor standards, and who trade in the apparel, agriculture, and other sectors. The person in charge from Marubeni directly visited the manufacturing sites, or production sites, of the suppliers to conduct such inspections.
Multifaceted surveys suitable for the business situation and regional characteristics are conducted on-site, covering areas such as respect for human rights, observance of law, preservation of environment, fair trade, safety and health, quality control, and disclosure of information. The issues of the survey and the survey methods are constantly being reviewed, including third-party opinions, in an effort to always be relevant to the current situations. Survey results are also reported back to the visited sites, so that the information can be shared and utilized for further improvement. If there are cases that do not meet our rules, are non-compliant, or are likely to have negative impact, we encourage the suppliers to report by their own initiative and take actions to lessen the effects, in our effort to reduce environmental and social impact throughout the entire supply chain.
When non-compliance is identified, we handle it through actions for improvement towards the supplier. We give training, enlightenment activities, support, and corrective instructions to the suppliers to promote environmental and social countermeasures. If no improvements are made after these activities, we warn the supplier that we may stop doing business with them.
In March 2018 a visit was made to a factory belonging to Unity Fashion Cambodia Co., Ltd., a supplier of Marubeni which manufactures sweaters in Cambodia, to inspect the company’s compliance on CSR issues.
As a result of this survey, no infringements of Marubeni’s Supply Chain CSR policy were found.
We were able to confirm that the company has appropriate policies and management procedures in place, including on the prevention of child labor and long working hours, the regular testing of emissions and wastewater discharges, a health and safety management system and employee training, a quality management system, the working environment, and the cleanliness and orderliness of the factory.
