Activities for Fostering Cooperation and Harmony with Stakeholders

Partnerships with Sales Agents

In April 2005, Komatsu distributed to 33 sales agencies and 25 Group rental companies in Japan "A Management System for Occupational Safety and Health: A Manual for Komatsu Sales Agencies and Rental Companies" and "Environmental Guidelines: A Manual for Komatsu Sales Agencies and Rental Companies," introducing the system and guidelines to these companies across the country.

For these agencies and companies in which the management system and guidelines have been introduced, Komatsu adopts a cooperative structure through which there are follow-up checkups on management systems, explanations of the contents of the Environmental Guidelines, checks of the state of implementation during diagnoses regarding safety and environmental compliance, and, when necessary, guidance and study sessions conducted directly onsite.
