"CSR Report 2007"

Daikin Industries, Ltd. has published the Daikin Group CSR Report 2007 covering the issues faced by the Daikin Group from April 2006 to March 2007 relating to CSR (Corporate Social Responsibility). The primary objective of the report is to deepen understanding and convey to a wide range of stakeholders the CSR activities of the Daikin Group and the issues we are confronting in fulfilling our corporate social responsibility. This report focuses on those areas believed to be of greatest concern to each stakeholder and the areas to which the Daikin Group is concentrating its resources. In particular, our opening feature stories introduce the specific details of our efforts relating to the important and pressing global theme of "mitigation of global warming" and to "the creation of a workplace respecting a diverse set of values" where employees can fully demonstrate their abilities. Additionally, in order to provide a comprehensive account of our activities, the report has been divided into the two spheres of "environment" and "society." Through corporate activities from now we would like to fulfill our social responsibilities to all stakeholders while contributing to the continuous development of society as we advance in our development as a corporate group. English and Chinese editions will be created and uploaded to the Daikin homepage in September.
