In cases where the Company receives improper demands from antisocial forces, the General Affairs Department and Sustainability Committee collaborate and cooperate with crisis management advisors and attorneys to make an organizational response as necessary. The Company also holds regular discussions with attorneys, meets with police departments and other external specialized organizations, and participates in training and other activities in an effort to gather information.
