Commitment to Environment

■The Company is making following efforts to reduce environmental impact:

・The Company, as a member of Tokyu Fudosan Holdings Group, shares “Sustainable Procurement Policy”, published on January 31, 2020, and works on environmental measures including “combatting climate change”. The purpose is to collaborate and cooperate with all stakeholders including suppliers by gaining understanding of the policy.
Tokyu Fudosan Holdings “Sustainable Procurement Policy” https://tokyu-fudosan-hd-csr.disclosure.site/en/themes/29
Based on the Group's Sustainable Procurement Policy, the Company has established the "Basic Policy on Sustainable Procurement" and "Green Procurement Standards" in order to implement the Company’s Sustainability Policy more specifically. This standard broadly indicates to suppliers that environment-friendly procurement is to be carried out, and in cooperation with each other, the Company works together to promote more sophisticated efforts based on the Sustainability Policy. In addition, the scope of application of this standard is direct or indirect transactions related to products, services, raw materials, and design/construction procured by the Company and all investment corporations entrusted to the Company.

・Since April 2022, the Company has been offering label-less beverages in the office to visitors and meeting attendees. The use of label-less bottles helps reduce plastic resin consumption and saves the trouble of removing the labels before discarding the bottles. Purchasing such beverages from suppliers committed to social and environmental sustainability is also part of our efforts to raise awareness of the need to address environmental problems through everyday consumption activities.

・We run a pilot reuse event to help reduce waste and CO2 emissions. Employees bring in items they no longer need at home and pass them on to colleagues who can give these items a second life. Through the event, we hope the employees will realize that they can easily become a part of the solution to environmental issues and take proactive action. It is also an opportunity to enhance communication between our employees.

■Climate Action

・The Company believes that climate change is a critical issue that has a significant impact on our business activities and those of the investment corporations that entrust asset management to us. In January 2022, we announced our support for the recommendations of the Task Force on Climate-related Financial Disclosures (TCFD). We also established our “climate action standards,” setting out the framework and basic policy for climate action as well as procedures for risk and opportunity management and related metrics and targets. These measures are part of the Company’s efforts to ensure that the investment corporations disclose information appropriately.

Commitment to Society

Human capital development as a group of professionals

As a group of professionals in real estate management, we believe human resource development is crucial for providing high quality real estate investment management services to maximize unitholder value and promote our human resource strategy.
In particular, we present a qualitative standard of requirements for desirable resources to encourage each employee to align their development with these values, and conduct resource hiring/development/utilization based on the evaluation system that aims to generate corporate culture that leads to reform and new value creation.
To enable each employee to fully realize their abilities and develop their careers, we appoint the right person to right positions with interviews conducted with all employees by Human Resources and our career development application system.
Through these efforts, we aim to provide physically and mentally healthy and stable life for each employee.
To secure necessary resources, we accept secondment supported by the sponsor group.
Refer to the “Key Employee Data” below regarding secondees.
We publish our data and initiative statuses related to sustainability activities including “Key Employee Data” and “Status of Work-Style Reform and Diversity Promotion” as shown below on a voluntary basis, not as a statutory requirement.

■New Work Style Project

Since our foundation, we have implemented a series of projects aimed at improving our employees’ work styles and operational efficiency.One such project called “new work style project” was relaunched in October 2021 by interested employees. Project members met many times to discuss two major issues. One is how existing work styles are failing to accommodate COVID-19 impacts and other social changes. The other is how new work styles can create a virtuous cycle of higher productivity and efficiency and better private lives. They put forward actions to be taken to management.
Building on this project, we are now exploring how our office should look like after COVID-19. The aim is “to create ‘an office employees are eager to go to’ while taking advantage of remote work so that at the office they can talk to each other face to face to enhance communication and experience.” In fact, we have already changed office layouts and adopted a “group address” style (a sectoral, free-address style).

・Diverse work areas (arranging desks and chairs of different designs)
・A system is in place to manage “group address” and “free address.”

・The lounge area is equipped with an automatic specialty coffee server, a soft-drink vending machine, and a freezer that stores breads from a local bakery, which are freely available to employees.

These events were designed to provide opportunities for them to ponder what they can do to solve social issues in their daily work. Many of our employees participated in the events, including a DE&I virtual reality session, LGBTQ+-friendly campaign, a visit to regenerative architectural facilities, a hands-on sustainability program, and in-house drives to collect used clothes and other daily goods. During that time, they also made entries to the Sustainable Action Awards and attended the Nikkei SDGs Forum's special symposium in Shibuya.

Contribution to the region
