Human Rights

Our Approach

Code of conduct

The values shared across the Fujitsu Group are set out in the Fujitsu Way, and the very first principle in its Code of Conduct is “We respect human rights”. This demonstrates Fujitsu's clear commitment to making respect for human rights a fundamental principle underpinning all our corporate activities. By ensuring that all Fujitsu Group employees demonstrate this commitment through their day-to-day actions, we can be confident that our management is founded on respect for human rights.

Human Rights Statement

In 2014, the Fujitsu Group released the “Fujitsu Group Human Rights Statement” and revised it in 2022. It states that senior management is committed to upholding international norms on human rights, complying with laws and regulations, conducting ongoing human rights due diligence, and engaging in dialogue with stakeholders. We are disseminating the Human Rights Statement throughout Fujitsu Group companies, and we also request our major suppliers to understand and comply with it. Fujitsu Group has publicly expressed its support for the 10 principles of the United Nations Global Compact(*1) which are based on universal principles regarding human rights and rights at work, such as United Nations Guiding Principles on Business and Human Rights, the Universal Declaration of Human Rights and the International Labour Organization’s (ILO) Declaration on Fundamental Principles and Rights at Work. We have also made public announcements regarding the Modern Slavery Acts passed in the UK and Australia.

  • (*1) Ten principles of the United Nations Global Compact :

    The compact identifies 10 principles that corporations should uphold in four areas: human rights, labor practices, the environment and anti-corruption.

Organizational Structure and Regular Reviews

A Division dedicated to Human Rights has been established within the CEO Office, which reports directly to the President. This group promotes activities that address human rights issues across the value chain in collaboration with corporate and business divisions. The group has established a system of regular meetings with human rights personnel in each region to promote global initiatives.
Activities are reported to and discussed by the Sustainability Management Committee (chaired by the CEO), and the results are then shared with the Executive Management Council and the Board of Directors.

Conducting Human Rights Due Diligence

In accordance with the "Fujitsu Group Human Rights Statement," the Fujitsu Group promotes human rights due diligence across its global value chain to identify actual and potential adverse human rights impacts associated with our business activities, implement measures to prevent and mitigate such impacts, and regularly monitor the effectiveness of these measures. Information on these activities is disclosed through our Integrated Report, Sustainability Data Book, and other public disclosures.
In addition, when undertaking a new corporate acquisition, we carry out due diligence from a sustainability perspective, including human rights considerations. We also work to mitigate any risk of human rights violations and ensure that the Fujitsu Group’s human rights initiatives are effectively implemented throughout the acquired organization.
