The Mazda 21st Century Labor-Management Joint Declaration
Mazda has a standing labor agreement with the Mazda Workers' Union. Through collective bargaining and the Labor-Management Council, we cooperate on issues including employment stability, the maintenance and improvement of working conditions, and health and safety. Additionally, while we have a shared outlook as regards the orientation of our business operations, our objective is to create a company that can contribute to all stakeholders in the company, including employees, customers, and shareholders. Thus, we are building a relationship of "thinking together, working as one."
On September 30, 2001, we adopted the Mazda 21st Century Labor-Management Joint Declaration, which states that within a climate of increasing global competition and faced with social demand for ever higher safety and environmental standards, Mazda is committed to achieving its corporate vision and fulfilling its role as a member of society, through respecting all people and understanding that each and every one of them is key to the changes required to become a "strong and vibrant group organization."
