OREANDA-NEWS. October 01, 2015. Ricoh Today announced that it issued an Integrated Report, the Ricoh Group Sustainability Report 2015.

Ricoh has released a sustainability report each year since fiscal 2012. These reports provide an integrated overview of financial information and non-financial information on society and the environment.

In this year’s issue, we aim to provide an informative overview of value creation at the Ricoh Group addressing all stakeholders, including shareholders and investors. The top management message lays out the Ricoh Group’s vision and policies, and highlights the corporate value we seek to create. The report also contains a new section that shows the process for achieving this, presenting the management resources invested in business activities and their actual results. In addition, to deepen readers’ understanding, the report shares the strategies set out in each business domain, as well as any progress made. It also sheds light on Ricoh’s technological capabilities, customer contact network, and sustainable environmental management to help readers gain insight into the source of Ricoh’s value creation.
Ricoh places the understanding of the stories behind the Group’s value creation efforts as the main priority in compiling the report. With this in mind, the details of each activity introduced in these stories are published on the Group’s website.

The Ricoh Group Sustainability Report 2015 is available on our website and in PDF and digital book format, the latter being best suited for viewing on tablet devices.

In terms of disclosure, Ricoh utilizes guidelines such as the International Integrated Reporting Framework by the International Integrated Reporting Council (IIRC), and Sustainability Reporting Guidelines by GRI. Through this Report, we hope to foster understanding and sympathy on the part of all stakeholders for the many facets of the Ricoh Group’s business activities, and channel the resulting feedback into efforts to further improve management and enhance corporate value.
