Customer visits to our office will be accepted. However, temperature checks of customers entering our office will be conducted until further notice.
We appreciate the understanding and cooperation of our customers and other concerned parties in this regard.
Meetings within the company are to be held using online tools as much as possible, and gatherings of many people in one place are to be avoided.
When meeting customers or conducting meetings within the company, our staff will be asked to wear masks, keep a minimum 1 meter distance from others, and endeavor to finish meetings as quickly as possible. Also, our staff will consider using online tools to hold video conferences as an alternative to face-to-face meetings with customers or staff within the company.
Staff will be asked to refrain from taking overseas business trips.
Domestic business trips are to be avoided unless they are urgent.
