Additionally, in principle, we will undergo a yearly third-party audit to obtain a more objective evaluation.

8. Enhanced management framework for subcontractors
When entering into an outsourcing contract, we will thoroughly examine the subcontractor’s eligibility and request that they maintain levels of security equal to or higher than that of the Company. To ensure security levels are being appropriately maintained, we will continually review our subcontractors and strengthen our contracts with them.
