In regards to employee training, Page 8 specifies that a total of 23,313 Canon Inc. employees completed the training in 2021 (92.5% participation rate). In 2022, this program was rolled out further to group companies in Japan, 33,100 employees completed the program (98.2% participation rate).

 

On Page 5, the report details that, in 2022, 57 production sites in major business areas were assessed using RBA's SAQ, and 16 sites in Japan and abroad underwent external audits by RBA. The audits results concluded non-conformance due to differences between requirements of RBA code of conduct and local laws and company policies. 'Nonconformances' were corrected by revising relevant policies and procedures at Canon Inc. Further 21 out of 110 reports in relation to human rights were identified and had corrective actions introduced in 2022 (Page 4).
