Materiality
Taisei Group’s Materiality
In alignment with [TAISEI VISION 2030] and our previous Medium-Term Business Plan, which outline our medium to long-term objectives, Taisei Group has identified its materiality. We take into consideration the impact on our management while recognizing the importance of societal concerns, stakeholder interests, and challenges facing society. These material issues have been selected based on their alignment with the Group philosophy and various policies.
Materiality Identification Process
When pinpointing key issues, we considered a range of sustainability challenges, integrating diverse perspectives from both within and outside the Company. Discussions and deliberations took place at the management level. Within the context of the Medium-Term Business Plan (2021–2023), we have established focused initiatives linked to the identified materialities and have been advancing our sustainability initiatives. The progress of KPIs associated with each materiality is monitored and discussed by the Sustainability Committee, enhancing the effectiveness of initiatives.

Materiality and KPIs
For KPIs, the Board regularly monitors the progress and achievement of KPIs, following prior deliberations by the Sustainability Committee, and takes measures as necessary. The progress and achievements of KPIs are also used in dialogue with shareholders and investors.
