Strengthened Information Disclosure: Response in the event of disasters

The Fujifilm Group operates in a diversified range of business fields. Fujifilm products play vital roles in society, in particular, they represent critical elements of information infrastructures, such as medical products including: endoscopes and X-ray diagnostic imaging systems, graphic systems for printing, recording media, highly functional materials, like flat-panel display materials and electronic materials, and copy machines.
These products are essential for the recovery and restoration of disaster-stricken areas where the health needs of victims must be addressed and information networks reconstructed.
Therefore, the Fujifilm Group must fulfill its responsibility to supply products that are vital to public well-being and disclose related information during disasters in addition to securing the safety of its own employees, determining the impact on business operations, and taking prompt action to resume operations.
When a disaster occurs, Fujifilm sets up a disaster headquarters and convenes a risk response team comprised of ten subteams (listed below) and quickly and effectively implements countermeasures across a wide range of areas from confirming the safety of employees to resuming manufacturing. The company also ensures the uninterrupted provision of socially critical Fujifilm products centered on medical care and information infrastructures. Fuji Xerox maintains a similar system. FUJIFILM Holdings releases complete and fully integrated public reports on the status of the Fujifilm Group in time of disaster, including the resumption of production activities and the provision of socially critical products.
In the future, personnel from FUJIFILM Holdings, Fujifilm, and Fuji Xerox will regularly gather to review emergency preparation and response manuals to further reinforce systems for promptly and effectively managing risks if disaster strikes and improving the information disclosure.
