Important sustainability-related matters receive consideration from Takeda's top leadership. Typically, these matters are elevated to Takeda's Business Review Committee (BRC), the Takeda Executive Team (TET) or the Board of Directors.
Sustainability is an important factos in our business decisions. For example, we identify any impacts, or potential impacts, that our business activites might have on society and the environment. Relevant divisions lead efforts to take appropriate measures to manage these impacs and to sustain corporate value.
Material issues are shared with the Takeda Sustainability Network, consisting of a cross-functional team of leaders throughout the company who work to make progress toward our goals.
A dedicated team within Takeda's Corporate Affairs function helps communicate sustainability-related information, referencing the United Nations Global Compact (UNGC) Advanced Level criteria, Global Reporting Initiative (GRI) Standards, the International Integrated Reporting Council (IIRC), Sustainable Accounting Standards Board (SASB) guidelines and others.
