Formulating the NTT Group CSR Priority Activities: Progress of CSR Priority Activities

  • 2006 Draw up NTT Group CSR Charter
  • 2008 Formulate NTT Group CSR Priority Activities
    Deciding priority activities for each of the four goals set forth in the NTT Group CSR Charter

    To drive the implementation of the NTT Group CSR Charter drawn up in June 2006 and take a more unified approach to addressing social issues both within Japan and overseas, we established our NTT Group CSR Priority Activities in November 2008 as activities to be pursued in common by group companies.

    In deciding our CSR Priority Activities, we drew up a list of 49 CSR activities that we saw as important both to the NTT Group and to stakeholders and society at large (see diagram below). We then examined each activity to rate relative importance and PDCA management level to eventually narrow the list down to our eight CSR Priority Activities.

  • 2009 Formulate of CSR action plans for each CSR Priority Activity, 2010 Start setting common groupwide quantitative indicators for each CSR Priority Activity
    Formulation of CSR action plans and setting of quantitative indicators for CSR Priority Activities

    In 2009, group companies drew up CSR action plans for each of the eight Priority Activities so as to link them to their respective business plans and take CSR activities across the Group to a higher level. In 2011, we started to set common groupwide quantitative indicators, and aim to complete the setting of quantitative indicators for all eight CSR Priority Activities in fiscal 2013.
