Human rights
As a company operating globally, the Toyo Corporation Group recognizes that respect for human rights is required not only within our own operations but also throughout our supply chain. Guided by the belief that respecting internationally recognized human rights principles and protecting the rights of all people involved in our business activities is a vital corporate social responsibility, we have long promoted initiatives for human rights based on the Toyo Corporation Compliance.
With the growing importance of respecting human rights, we further clarified our approach and strengthened our efforts by formulating the Toyo Corporation Group Human Rights Policy in October 2025. This policy was approved by the Board of Directors and has been communicated to all officers and employees across the Group.
TOYO Corporation Group Human Rights Policy
TOYO Corporation Group is dedicated to building a prosperous and sustainable society through measurement solutions while fostering an environment that respects both individuals and the planet. We recognize that upholding the fundamental human rights of all individuals in every country and region where we operate is a vital corporate responsibility in supporting these efforts.
To this end, we have established the ‘TOYO Corporation Group Human Rights Policy,’ grounded in international human rights principles. This policy functions as the primary guideline for respecting human rights throughout all business activities of the TOYO Corporation Group, and the entire organization is committed to its enforcement.
1. Commitment to Respecting Human Rights
Our principles and values are grounded in international standards, including the Universal Declaration of Human Rights, the International Covenants on Human Rights, the ILO Declaration on Fundamental Principles and Rights at Work, the UN Guiding Principles on Business and Human Rights, and the UN Children's Rights and Business Principles. We are committed to respecting human rights in all our business activities. As a signatory of the UN Global Compact, we also endorse and uphold its 10 principles.
We adhere to all applicable laws and regulations in the countries and regions where we operate. In cases where there are differences or contradictions between local laws and internationally recognized human rights principles, or when conflicting requirements arise, we will seek ways to respect those principles while complying with local laws and regulations.
2. Scope
This policy applies to all executives and employees of the TOYO Corporation Group. In addition, we expect our business partners and suppliers to understand and respect this policy. We aim to promote respect for human rights collaboratively.
3. Human Rights Due Diligence
We continue to conduct human rights due diligence to identify, prevent, and mitigate any adverse impacts on human rights. If significant human rights risks are identified, we will take appropriate corrective measures and regularly evaluate and review progress.
4. Remedies and Corrective Measures
If we identify that our business activities have caused adverse human rights impacts, or if we confirm or suspect our involvement through business partners or other parties, we will work to remediate through dialogue and appropriate procedures based on international standards.
5. Education and Training
We will provide education and training on human rights to both executives and employees, fostering understanding and ensuring the policy's effective implementation.
6. Dialogue and Consultation
We will hold dialogues and consult with stakeholders and external experts who may be impacted by our human rights initiatives. Additionally, we aim to enhance our responses through clear and transparent communication.
7. Disclosure
We will regularly disclose updates about our human rights initiatives and the progress of human rights due diligence through suitable communication channels.

Reporting Channels
TOYO Corporation Group has established dedicated channels for reporting human rights concerns. For employees, we provide an internal reporting channel, which is communicated through the intranet and other methods, along with measures to encourage proper usage. Additionally, we have a "Contact Point for Suppliers" that allows them to report specific human rights issues related to our corporate activities. Both internal and external reporting channels are managed by an independent third-party organization. We prioritize the privacy of whistleblowers and ensure that no whistleblower, consultant, or their employer will be treated unfairly for making a report.
In the fiscal year ending September 2024, there were no serious human rights violations reported.
