CSR Management
Summary of CSR Initiatives for Fiscal 2009
Alps Electric defined 2006 as the first year of CSR initiatives and established a platform for promoting Global Alps and Alps Group CSR activity through implementation of its 1st CSR Mid-Term Plan over the fiscal years 2006 to 2008. Having postponed introduction of a new plan in fiscal 2009 due to the global financial crisis and consequent deterioration of the business environment, the 2nd CSR Mid-Term Plan was formulated in fiscal 2010 for the three years through to fiscal 2012. CSR activities will be advanced further under this plan.
