Compliance
Compliance Program
In day-to-day corporate activities, it is necessary to ensure that decisions and conduct are carried out in a timely and appropriate manner. Eisai believes that compliance (with laws, regulations and ethical standards) is fundamental in the carrying out of such decisions and conduct and has articulated its concept of compliance in its corporate philosophy, which is incorporated within its Articles of Incorporation.
Promoting Compliance Awareness
Compliance Promotion System
At the Eisai Group, the Corporate Compliance and Risk Management Department has been promoting global compliance activities under the leadership of the Chief Compliance Officer, a corporate officer who is responsible for promoting and supervising compliance Group-wide, through cooperation with compliance contacts and compliance departments appointed and established at each Group company.
Compliance Handbook
To enable all officers and employees to carry out their activities with the same standard, Eisai has developed the “Compliance Handbook,” which includes the “Eisai Charter of Business Conduct”—the basis of the Eisai Group's corporate activities—and the “Code of Conduct,” which lays out the guidelines. In addition to Japanese, the handbook is available in English, Chinese and various other languages, which effectively promotes compliance awareness among Eisai’s officers and employees worldwide.

System for Answering Employee Compliance-Related Questions and Early Detection of Compliance Issues
Compliance Counter
The Compliance Counter serves as a compliance consulting service for all officers and employees to utilize whenever they have compliance concerns about their own conduct or that of their supervisors or colleagues, or are having trouble interpreting laws or making other compliance decisions. In addition, the External Compliance Counter is based at an outside law office, providing a comfortable and easy to access environment that aims to further improve compliance culture.
Distribution of Compliance Cards
Compliance Cards have been prepared and distributed to all officers and employees of the Eisai Group. These cards contain information on how to access the Compliance Counter as well as the Compliance Test service, a self-examination tool that employees may use whenever they feel uncertain as to whether or not their conduct complies with the Eisai Group's compliance policies.
COMPLIANCE TEST
If employees are in any doubt, they are encouraged to consult to their manager. If, for some reason, the employees cannot consult their manager, employees can contact Compliance Counter.
