"We conducted a questionnaire survey on a trial basis to determine the CSR status of our suppliers."

OMRON's production sites around the world purchase parts and materials from some 2,700 companies. In conformance with its "open, fair and global" purchasing policy, OMRON is working to extend CSR activities to involve the entire supply chain.

In response to rapidly increasing purchase volume in China, OMRON initiated CSR procurement there ahead of other regions. As such OMRON has worked to form purchasing contracts including CSR provisions with major local suppliers since fiscal 2006.

In China we have concluded purchasing contracts including CSR provisions with a total of 249 suppliers by the end of fiscal 2007. This represents 81% of all suppliers. In February 2008, OMRON production sites in China conducted a survey on a trial basis for 25 main local suppliers, with many questions related to CSR, such as human rights, labor practices, occupational safety and health, the environment, fair dealings and corporate ethics, quality, safety and others.

We are aiming to analyze the results of the survey along with those of the preceding survey in Japan and use the data to assess the status of CSR practices across the entire supply chain.
