Hitachi Construction Machinery

From fiscal 2011, we consolidated our Annual Report, which reported our management strategy and financial statements, and our CSR Report, which reported Environment, Social, and Governance (ESG) information, to produce a comprehensive CSR & Financial Report. We did this to provide a clear overall view of the activities of the Hitachi Construction Machinery Group as it aims at the integrated advancement of our growth strategies and CSR management as a corporate group. In this FY 2017 CSR & Financial Report, we have highlighted the areas described below to allow our stakeholders to gain a clearer understanding of the Hitachi Construction Machinery Group’s corporate management.

• We are working to reinforce our “Creating Shared Value (CSV) management” which uses business activities to bring value to the Earth, society (stakeholders), and the HCM Group. The 2017 edition of the report provides information on the three CSV themes we consider important in contributing to the achievement of a sustainable society, as well as the five base themes supporting those CSV themes.
• Furthermore, we release more detailed information about our activities and performance data on the web. We aim to release information that corresponds to the various interests and concerns in our business.
