The Whistleblowing Mechanism Guidelines, revised in December 2016 by the Consumer Affairs Agency, recommend that neutral and fair third-party assessments be carried out. We had such an assessment carried out in May 2017 and received the comment that overall, a whistleblowing mechanism is in place and is being administered appropriately.

Details of assessment  ● Investigation of the mechanism and operational status of the help line in order to verify its effectiveness in terms of utilization and reliability.
● Sample survey on the establishment of regulations and responses to whistleblowers, etc.  ● Confirmation of compliance with the Whistleblowing Mechanism Guidelines. 
● Interviews with administrators and discussion about operational issues.

Disciplinary Actions against Confirmed Violations A compliance violation or breach of the NTT Group Corporate Ethics Charter is dealt with using the disciplinary measures taken in accordance with the disciplinary code established at each Group company. This includes pay cuts and work suspension, and may also be reflected in assessments (evaluations) and personnel transfers.
