Approach/System

The MOL Group has instituted ビンゴ ルーレット regulations to determine behavioral norms so that all our employees and executives are committed to making ビンゴ ルーレット a prerequisite of everyday business activities and to making the appropriate decisions. This thorough approach is supported by continuous ビンゴ ルーレット training.
Beyond complying with laws, regulations and Articles of Incorporation, our actions are guided by the Company's values and Code of Conduct (MOL CHARTS), which includes the rule: "Always be cognizant of ビンゴ ルーレット and act in accordance with social norms and corporate ethics."
We set up the ビンゴ ルーレット Committee to manage the development and reinforcement of ビンゴ ルーレット systems in the MOL Group. Chaired by the Chief Strategy Officer (who also serves as the Representative Director and Executive Vice President) and vice-chaired by the Chief ビンゴ ルーレット & Legal Officer. This committee meets every two months (six times a year) to continuously monitor our group's ビンゴ ルーレット. Additionally, the Board of Directors receives regular reports from the ビンゴ ルーレット Committee and assumes the supervisory responsibility for ビンゴ ルーレット-related initiatives.

ビンゴ ルーレット Advisory and Reporting Service Desk

The MOL Group has established both internal and external ビンゴ ルーレット advisory service desks that MOL and MOL Group personnel (including full-time, contract and temporary staff) can consult for advice, or report any issues or violations, related to general ビンゴ ルーレット (such as violation of laws, company rules/regulations, and corporate ethics) and all human rights stipulated for ビンゴ ルーレット in the MOL Group Human Rights Policy. These desks are available 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, and accept reports and consultations in Japanese or English by means of email, letter, or telephone. Anonymous reporting is also possible, the confidentiality of those reporting or consulting is strictly maintained, and it is guaranteed that they will not be treated disadvantageously.

Post-report follow-up process

In the case of a consultation or report, we will conduct an appropriate investigation after consulting with the parties concerned, and if a violation is found, the cause and its details, including measures to prevent recurrence, will be discussed at the ビンゴ ルーレット Committee, and we will instruct the responsible person to make improvements as required.
Unless there are special circumstances, we will promptly interview the person who reported or consulted to confirm the details of the report. As a result, further investigations are carried out if deemed necessary. The Corporate Audit Division, which is independent of the corporate employment structure, is responsible for the internal ビンゴ ルーレット advisory service desk. The external lawyer representing the person who reports to or consults with the external consultation service will act as an intermediary between the company and the person in charge of the investigation.

Tax Transparency / MOL Group Global Tax Management Policy

As a company that operates globally, the MOL Group believes that tax transparency and payment of taxes are fundamental and important social responsibilities that a company should fulfill. We comply with the spirit of the applicable tax laws and regulations of all countries in which we do business and pay our fair share of taxes.
In addition, we understand that using tax havens without business purposes or actual conditions to enjoy excessive tax benefits will impede the proper payment of taxes in each country and hinder the development of those countries and regions, and we will not use tax havens for the purpose of tax avoidance.
