Initiative
Green Purchasing* Policy
Implementation of the Green Purchasing Guidelines
Ask all tier 1 suppliers, including new suppliers, to implement basic initiatives
based on the TOYOTA Green Purchasing Guidelines (the “guidelines”), and
also deploy and enlighten the guidelines to all tier 2 and subsequent suppliers
so that the guidelines will take root.
Ask through the guidelines that initiatives be taken toward reducing the
environmental footprint at each company’s production plants and throughout
the product life cycle, and that related legal compliance be ensured.
* Prioritizing the purchase of parts, materials, equipment and services with a low environmental footprint when
manufacturing products
Overseas Practices related to the Green Purchasing Policy
Ask the purchasing base in each region to implement the guidelines in line
with local conditions and make continuous efforts.
Cases
Toyota Motor North America (North America)

Consideration in Each Stage of the Vehicle Life Cycle
Toyota has been working, in cooperation with its stakeholders, to achieve
carbon neutrality by 2050 by employing the Life Cycle Assessment (LCA)
methods to measure CO
2
emissions.
Carbon neutrality in LCA means to achieve carbon neutrality for not only
greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions during driving but all CO

generated
throughout the entire vehicle life cycle including materials, parts and vehicle
manufacturing, logistics, energy production, disposal and recycling.

CO
2
emissions during driving are considered in two stages.
Well to Tank (WtT): From fuel extraction/production to a tank, or from power
generation to lling a battery
Tank to Wheel (TtW): From start of an engine or motor to driving wheels
While gasoline vehicles emit CO
2
during fuel production (WtT) and driving
(TtW), battery electric vehicles (BEVs) do not emit CO
2
during driving (TtW)
but if fossil fuel is used, CO
2
is generated during production of electricity (WtT)
and production of batteries.
To reduce CO
2
emissions of BEVs, conversion to renewable energy is crucial.
But the progress in conversion varies among countries and regions, making
it difcult to achieve complete conversion. It is therefore not easy to achieve
carbon neutrality only with BEVs. So, reduction of CO
2
emissions from the
existing powertrains, such as gasoline vehicles and hybrid vehicles, many of
which are present in market, should also be promoted by introducing low-
carbon synthetic fuels, such as biofuel and e-fuel.

Considering from Energy Production Stage
Consideration to energy policies
In working toward achieving carbon neutrality, Toyota considers that various
elements affect energy policies of individual countries/regions as described
below:
Individual countries/regions are promoting various initiatives appropriate for
their energy situations, which vary among countries/regions depending on
their degree of development of social infrastructure and industry and the
presence of resources.
Meanwhile, recent tight power supply and soaring energy prices are
affecting energy policies of countries.
Consideration to characteristics of each power generation method
In working toward achieving carbon neutrality, Toyota considers distinctive
characteristics of each power generation method, including some examples
below:
Renewable power generation
No CO
2
emissions during power generation.
With costs reduced and policy support provided, increasingly introduced.
Although there are some factors that are making stable supply difcult,
such as differences in the amount of power generated depending on the
weather, solutions such as reinforcement of power systems and combined
use of stationary batteries are being considered.
Backup with other power generation methods is an issue.
Thermal power generation
Being used in many countries and regions as a stable power source.
To reduce CO
2
emissions, co-ring of hydrogen or ammonia is being
considered.
Combined application of CCS (CO
2
capture and storage), a process
of separating and recovering CO
2
in exhaust gas from plants or power
stations, is expected, though there are challenges in the selection of
proper locations, cost reduction and the development of laws.

Aiming at Carbon Neutrality through Product Development
Diverse solutions for diverse situations
A wide range of vehicles, from passenger cars to commercial vehicles
and from cars for people’s daily lives to luxury cars, are used in diverse
situations, including not only urban areas but also countries and regions with
underdeveloped infrastructure, especially in a severe environment, such as
deserts and coal mines.
Toyota has a variety of powertrain lineups of electried vehicles, vehicles
that convert electricity into power to move, such as HEVs, PHEVs, BEVs and
FCEVs.
In diversied markets of different countries and regions, there is no one-size-
ts-all solution. Toyota therefore endeavors to propose various solutions and
prepare as many options as possible for our customers.
BEV strategies
Expand the options for achieving carbon neutrality by offering a full lineup
of BEVs.
Announced in December 2021 the plan to roll out 30 BEV models by 2030,
globally offering a full lineup of BEVs in the passenger and commercial
segments.
Released the bZ4X, developed based on a dedicated platform for battery
EVs, on May 12, 2022.
Media Brieng on Battery EV Strategies
Development and supply of batteries
While promoting a full lineup of electried vehicles, we have also been
developing a full lineup of batteries.
In line with different types of electried vehicles, continuously evolving
different types of batteries by taking advantage of their respective
characteristics.
Commercialized the bipolar nickel-metal hydride battery as an onboard
battery for driving for the rst time in the world.
Used in the new Aqua announced in July 2021.
Output density: doubled compared to the batteries used in the previous
generation of the Aqua.
The benets of bipolar nickel-metal hydride batteries
Improved accelerator responsiveness and an exciting sensation of speed
when the accelerator pedal is pressed.
Being more compact, less space is required to be equipped.
More batteries can be installed in the same space (enabling drivers to enjoy
driving on battery power alone for a longer time).

Hydrogen engine technology development
Hydrogen-engine vehicles directly burn hydrogen as fuel in a modied
conventional gasoline engine setup.
Using 100-percent pure hydrogen, they emit nearly no CO
2
except for the
combustion of minute amounts of engine oil during driving.
Promoting agile development on the frontline of motorsports.
The hydrogen-powered Corolla participated in the Fuji Super TEC 24 Hours
Race held from May 21, 2021 for the rst time.
The GR86, which uses carbon neutral fuel, participated in the Super
Taikyu Series 2022 as an attempt to increase options of fuels using internal
combustion engines.
Since the rst race, more and more supporters have come together with the
same goal to achieve carbon neutrality. Companies and municipalities that
produce, transport, and use hydrogen and carbon-neutral fuel in the Series
have increased from the initial eight (as of May 22, 2021) to 24 (as of June
3, 2022).

Challenging hydrogen engine technology development through motorsports
Plant-derived ethanol as automobile fuel
Ethanol produced from sugarcane or corn, which has been increasingly used
for the purpose of mainly reducing oil consumption in Brazil and the U.S., is
attracting much attention as an option to achieve carbon neutrality.
Plant-based bioethanol emits CO
2
when it is burned. But since plants absorb
CO
2
to grow, it will not increase the overall amount of CO
2
in the air.
For gasoline vehicles in general, gasoline mixed with a maximum of around
10% ethanol can be used. In countries where ethanol is inexpensive, such as
Brazil, 100-percent pure ethanol fuel is sold, and in such areas, exible-fuel
vehicles (FFVs), for which high-concentration ethanol can be used, are being
distributed.
Toward achieving the carbon neutrality, Toyota provides vehicles that cater to
different local conditions for customers.

Expanding use of fuel cells from passenger cars to heavy-duty vehicles
A fuel cell generates electricity through a reaction between hydrogen as a
fuel and oxygen in the air. Similar to BEVs, FCEVs do not emit CO
2
on a TtW
basis. But the amount of CO
2
emissions during fuel production (WtT) varies
depending on the production method of hydrogen.
The amount of CO
2
emissions from production of hydrogen varies depending
on the production method. There are types of hydrogen with low environmental
impact, including hydrogen produced from natural gas by capturing or storing
CO
2
emitted in production processes (blue hydrogen) and hydrogen produced
through electrolysis of water using renewable energy (green hydrogen).
Use of hydrogen with few CO
2
emissions enables FCEVs to achieve substantial
CO
2
reduction equivalent to that achieved by BEVs using renewable energy.
Heavy-duty trucks are required to satisfy strict conditions, such as adequate
cruising range and load capacity, as well as the ability to refuel quickly. They
also account for around 70 percent of CO
2
emissions from commercial
vehicles in Japan. Therefore, it is highly meaningful to make them zero-
emission. Application of a fuel cell system based on the FCEV MIRAI for
passenger cars to heavy-duty vehicles is being considered.

Having directly visited and investigated dismantling companies around the
world since the launch of the Raum passenger car in 2003, Toyota actively
adopts vehicle structures that make it easy to dismantle and separate parts
for new vehicles in order to ensure safe and speedy dismantling operations.
Achieving Industry-leading Levels in Easy-to-dismantle Design for
Effective Resource Recycling
Vehicle models launched in FY2022 for which an easy-to-dismantle design
is adopted:
Aqua, Land Cruiser, Corolla Cross, Noah, Voxy, LexusNX, Lexus UX300e,
Lexus LX
Toyota vehicles achieve a recyclability rate of 85 percent or more by calculation
based on the vehicle design values.
In light of recent circumstances, where many of the vehicles manufactured in
the early stage of the introduction of easy-to-dismantle designs are reaching
their end of life, Toyota placed advertisements in Nikkan Kogyo Shimbun (The
Daily Industrial News) focusing on the ease of removing the wiring harness, a
representative example, in order to make Toyota’s easy-to-dismantle design
known to more dismantlers.

Toyota Policy on Harmony with Nature
We renewed the Biodiversity Guidelines formulated in 2008 as the Toyota Policy on Harmony with Nature in January 2021.
This policy is a guideline for promoting harmony with nature and will serve as the basis for future activities.
We will expand the reach of activities promoting harmony with nature, including the conservation of biodiversity, from
communities to the world in collaboration with various people throughout society.
Toyota Policy on Harmony with Nature
Humans enjoy prosperous and fullling lives by harmonizing various elements of nature such as water and air as well
as conserving biodiversity. However, as environmental issues such as climate change and water shortages interact
and become more severe, this harmony of natural elements is disrupted, and biodiversity is being lost. To improve
the current situation, Toyota seeks to realize a sustainable society in harmony with nature by fully utilizing the tech-
nology and know-how it has developed through various businesses.
1. Recognizing that nature underlies our life and economy through resource supply and climate stabilization, we will
promote activities that harmonize various elements of nature and conserve biodiversity.
2. We will expand the reach of activities among communities and connect them with the world by not only acting
spontaneously, but also collaborating strongly with society.
3. We will promote environmental education to change the awareness of employees and generations based on the
recognition that the biodiversity that forms the foundation of our prosperous life is facing a critical situation. At the
same time, we will offer related information to society through both in-house and outside activities.

STEP 1
Set Future Storylines Assuming Climate Change Effects
Substantial changes brought by climate change and associated policies of
various countries to the automobile industry and the entire mobility society will
present both risks and opportunities to Toyota.
Based on risk and opportunity analysis, using scenarios
*1
such as those of
the IEA
*2
, we envisioned three future storylines of society: the stated policies
future storyline, 2°C future storyline, and 1.5°C or less future storyline in
around 2030 for external environment.
*1 Set using scenarios such as the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change(IPCC)’s Representative
Concentration Pathways (RCP) 4.5 equivalent, IEAs Stated Policies Scenario (STEPS), Sustainable
Development Scenario (SDS), and Net Zero Emissions by 2050 Scenario (NZE) as reference
*2 International Energy Agency
c) Resilience of the Organization’s Strategy, Taking into Consideration Different Climate-related Scenarios, including a 2°C or Lower Scenario
STEP 2
Consider the Impacts on Toyota
We considered impacts on Toyota in each future storyline of society envisioned
in STEP1.
In a society of the 2°C future storyline and the 1.5°C or less future storyline,
the role of electried vehicles (ZEVs in particular) will increase.
In case of a society of the 1.5°C or less future storyline in particular, the
percentage of ZEVs among new vehicle sales will increase greatly and the
use of carbon neutral fuels
*3
will also expand.
With regard to effects on production and purchasing, since the introduction
of carbon taxes and increased tax rates may lead to higher costs, expanding
the use of energy-saving technology, renewable energy and hydrogen will
mitigate the risks.
In the case of a society of the stated policies future storyline, if adequate
climate change measures are not implemented throughout society, the
following events are likely to increase:
Production suspensions due to increased frequency and severity of natural
disasters such as ooding.
Decreased production and production suspensions due to supply chain
disruptions.
*3. Carbon neutral fuels: Next-generation biofuels and synthetic fuels
STEP 3
Toyota’s Strategies
Fundamental approach
In April 2021, Toyota proclaimed that it would address global-scale
challenges to achieve carbon neutrality by 2050.
As an initiative to this end, we promote environmental technology development
for electried vehicles, such as hybrid electric vehicles (HEVs), plug-in hybrid
vehicles (PHEVs), battery EVs (BEVs) and fuel cell vehicles (FCEVs).
Environmental technologies can contribute to reduction of CO
2
emissions
when they are disseminated.
Electried vehicle strategy
Toyota conducts sales in over 170 countries and regions.
It is important to offer options of a variety of electried vehicles to satisfy
the different needs of the countries and regions with diverse economic
conditions, energy and industrial policies, and customer needs.
Toyota has sold a cumulative total of over 20 million electried vehicles
worldwide. As one of the rst companies to respond to climate change
risks, it has achieved a CO
2
emissions reduction of over 160 million tons (as
of February 28, 2022).
Future actions
With regards to BEVs, successively introduce models with dedicated
platforms starting in 2022 and promote practical vehicle supply through
battery development and production strategies.
Declared efforts to achieve the aim, as announced in December 2021, of
developing 30 types of BEVs and achieving a full lineup in the passenger
and commercial segments globally by 2030 to reach 3.5 million annual
global vehicle sales.
Advance the sales of electried vehicles to t different regional conditions
and customer preferences.
In addition to BEVs, promote electried vehicle strategy from all directions,
and exibly and strategically change total vehicle sales and other conditions
in response to changes in the market while leveraging the strengths that we
have gained through our experience so far, thereby encouraging customers
in each region to choose us and accelerating the increased use of electried
vehicles.

Achieving carbon neutrality in the 2°C future storyline and the 1.5°C or
less future storyline
Even if battery demand increases in accordance with altered customer
needs, exibly respond by enhancing collaboration with existing/new
partners, and swiftly establishing production structures at suppliers that
have capital ties with Toyota.
Challenges toward new technologies
In addition to increasing the number of electried vehicles, promote the
introduction of CO
2
-reducing off-cycle technology* (although not reected
in mode fuel efciency).
Expand options for technologies that will contribute to reducing CO
2
emissions of vehicles (including vehicles currently in use), such as hydrogen
fuel/hydrogen engine vehicles, and carbon neutral fuel technologies.
Cases of efforts toward new technology development
Participate in motorsport events, such as the Super Taikyu Series in
Japan, to accelerate the development of hydrogen fuels and hydrogen
engines and promote verication tests of carbon neutral fuels.
Implement initiatives to expand options to make, transport, and use
hydrogen in collaboration with various companies and local governments,
such as the supply of hydrogen produced from sewage biogas by Fukuoka
City for hydrogen engines, with the aim of establishing partnerships
toward realizing a hydrogen-based society.
Achieving carbon neutrality
In order for the automobile industry to achieve carbon neutrality, it is vital
to operate energy policies (renewable energy, charging infrastructure,
etc.) and industrial policies (purchasing grants, supplier support, battery
recycling systems, etc.) in a unied manner.
It is necessary to implement initiatives in coordination with various
stakeholders, such as national governments and industry organizations.
When undertaking its business activities globally, Toyota will coordinate with
national governments to establish infrastructure for promoting electrication
while implementing electried vehicle strategies that contribute to reducing
CO
2
emissions throughout the entire life cycle.
Initiatives in the production eld
We announced our aim to achieve carbon neutrality at global plants by
2035, and we also prepare to face risks such as carbon taxes.
We are promoting the reduction of CO
2
emissions through comprehensive
energy-saving technology and the introduction of renewable energy and
hydrogen at plants; Achieved 100 percent introduction rate for renewable
electricity at all plants in Europe .
Strengthening strategic resilience
Implement measures to respond to natural disasters such as formulating a
business continuity plan (BCP).
Strengthen the supply chain by enhancing information gathering, and
improve communication.
Toyota will work together not only with the automobile industry but with all
industries while continuing to engage in challenges to respond to a society of
the 1.5°C or less future storyline through initiatives that are practical as well
as sustainable.
To ensure stable fund procurement and lasting corporate value enhancement,
we check the progress and validity of Toyota’s strategies by:
Conducting appropriate information disclosures regarding various ESG
assessment indicators.
Enhancing dialogue with stakeholders including institutional investors.
* Off-cycle technology: Technologies such as high efciency lightings, waste heat recovery, active aerodynamic
improvement and solar radiation/temperature management that improve actual fuel consumption. The U.S. has
a system of offering credits equivalent to the amount of improvement achieved.

a) Organization’s Processes for Identifying and Assessing
Climate-related Risks
Toyota has a company-wide risk management system called the TGRS
that covers all risks related to its corporate activities and behavior, including
climate change.
All risks, including climate change, are identied and assessed based on the
TGRS.
Risk assessment is carried out based on the two perspectives of "magnitude
of impact” and “vulnerabilities” to clarify the substantive nancial or strategic
impact on the business.
The level of seriousness of risks is conclusively assessed on a four-point scale
by comprehensively examining the following assessments.
Magnitude of impact
Assessed comprehensively by the four elements of “nance”, “reputation”,
“violation of laws and regulations”, and “business continuation”.
”Finance” is assessed on a ve-point scale using the ratio to sales as an
indicator.
”Reputation”, “violation of laws and regulations”, and “business
continuation” are also assessed on a ve-point scale.
Vulnerabilities
Assessed by the two elements of “countermeasures” and “clarity of
responsible organizations.”

Risk
Policy and
Legal
Risks of current regulations, including fuel efciency
and greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions regulations,
in countries/regions have a signicant impact on
technology development and production/sales
planning
Future regulations have an impact on a wide scale on
our technology development, product planning, and
production planning
In tightening or introducing regulations, there is
a possibility that a lawsuit may be led due to a
difference in the interpretation between entities, such
as investors and companies
Technology
As a climate change policy, fuel efciency regulations
for automobiles are being tightened globally, and
customers’ need for low-carbon vehicles is also
increasing.
Development and cost reduction of low-carbon
technology focusing on electrication are important
management issues.
Market
Changes in the market lead to a decrease in sales,
affecting nancial conditions
Reputation
A concern that a decline in social image of the
corporation will affect Toyota’s sales and stock prices
Physical
Risks
Acute
A concern that extensive storms and oods caused by
climate change will damage Toyota’s 50 major plants
worldwide
Chronic
A concern that the expansion of drought associated
with climate change will have a signicant impact
on production plans and rising water costs at some
Toyota plants
b) Organization’s Processes for Managing Climate-
related Risks
After risks by region, function (manufacturing, sales, etc.), and product are
extracted by each division and assessed in view of magnitude of impact and
vulnerability according to the TGRS, each region and each Group mutually
cooperates and supports to implement a prompt response.
Chief Ofcers of each Group or Company Presidents of in-house companies
supervise the activities of the companies, and at the subordinate level, the
General Managers supervise the activities of divisions and implement and
monitor countermeasures.
Climate-related risks and opportunities are also identied and assessed by
the Environmental Product Design Assessment Committee and Production
Environment Committee. The following matters are discussed, and the
response status is monitored and reviewed by the divisions in charge and
relevant ofcers at the respective committees.
Environmental Product Design Assessment Committee: Fuel economy
regulations and procurement
Production Environment Committee: Direct operations, such as CO
2
emission regulations on plants and water risks
Meetings of these two committees are held when an important event arises with
the participation of Executive- or General Manager-level members of relevant
divisions, such as technology, environment, nance, purchasing, and sales.
Through examinations by these committees, the risks are assessed multiple
times a year.
Important risks and opportunities that require prompt response are reported
to the Board of Directors Meeting one by one, and the response measures
are determined.
c) How Processes for Identifying, Assessing, and
Managing Climate-related Risks are Integrated into
the Organization’s Overall Risk Management
As described above, the processes using the TGRS are a company-wide
risk management system that covers all risks and opportunities related to
corporate activities and behavior, including climate change.
At the meetings of the Environmental Product Design Assessment
Committee and Production Environment Committee, where members from
relevant divisions gather, climate-related risks and opportunities are identied/
assessed, and countermeasures are examined.

a) Metrics Used by the Organization to Assess Climate-
related Risks and Opportunities in Line with Its
Strategy and Risk Management Process
Toyota believes that setting multiple metrics to comprehensively manage
climate-related risks and opportunities is important as a measure for
adaptation to and mitigation of climate change.
The metrics include not only the amount of CO
2
emissions but also other
elements deeply related to climate change, such as energy, water, resource
recycling, and biodiversity.
These metrics are systematically incorporated in the following targets as the
six challenges.
Toyota Environmental Challenge 2050: A long-term target toward 2050
2030 Milestone: A medium-term target toward 2030
Seventh Toyota Environmental Action Plan: A short-term target toward 2025
Toyota aims to achieve carbon neutrality by 2050 with the following three zero
challenges:
Life Cycle Zero CO
2
Emissions Challenge: Scope 1, 2, and 3 along with
voluntary initiatives
New Vehicle Zero CO
2
Emissions Challenge: Focuses on TtW
*1
of Category
11 in Scope 3
Plant Zero CO
2
Emissions Challenge: Scope 1, 2 and production bases of
some nancially non-consolidated afliates (Scope 3)
Toyota announced in 2021 that it would aim to achieve carbon neutrality at
plants by 2035.
Internally, certain carbon prices are used as indicators to examine capital
investment and other activities.
Approaches to each target are presented in the table on the next page.

Against Targets
Structure of Environmental Strategies
Toyota is continuously monitoring trends as well as customer’s opinion,
which enables it to consider what issues should be focused on and work on
environmental issues with new ideas and technologies by quickly anticipating
future issues.
Global environmental issues such as climate change, water shortages,
resource depletion, and loss of biodiversity are continuing to grow and
increase in seriousness every day.
We formulated the Toyota Environmental Challenge 2050 in 2015 and the
2030 Milestone in 2018 so that each one of us can better understand these
issues and continue to tackle challenges from a long-term perspective of the
world 20 and 30 years ahead.
In 2020, we set the 2025 Target as the most recent target of the Toyota
Environmental Action Plan, a ve-year plan for achieving this.
We are pursuing the development of a sustainable society by implementing,
in collaboration with global consolidated subsidiaries and business partners
around the world, the specic activities determined through a process of back
casting from Toyota’s medium- and long-term vision.

Aim
Continuously identify and assess risks related to Human Rights impacts on
stakeholders, while at the same time ensuring mitigation and preventative
measures are implemented.
Initiative
Identication and
Assessment
The methodology, process and actions are developed in line
with various international standards and norms.
For issues related to the automotive industry, Toyota consults
Human Rights experts and other relevant stakeholders to
classify and analyze the risks from two viewpoints: the impact
on stakeholders and relevancy to Toyota’s business.*
*For raw materials, we consider the region, quantity and type of material.
Reporting and risks assessment are conducted within the
framework of the organization for sustainability management
(Sustainability Subcommittee).
Prevention
Continuous Risk Monitoring operations include:
Business partner collaboration, interaction with Human
Rights associations, affected stakeholder consultations, and
continuous Human Rights risk research.
Mitigation
For each of the prioritized risks, Toyota develops a risk
mitigation plan through an agreement with the affected
stakeholders and suppliers while also being guided by specialist
external bodies.
These plans are tracked on a monthly basis and reviewed
annually by the human-rights-related functions to evaluate the
progress and effectiveness, while the need for improvement is
also determined.
Remedy
Development and implementation of a Grievance Mechanism.

P.60 Collaboration with JP-MIRAI
Engagement with Business Partners (Supply Chain Due
Diligence)
Supplier Sustainability Guidelines includes a requirement for suppliers
to ensure thorough compliance with laws and regulations, and to respect
Human Rights.
Toyota works together with suppliers on risk monitoring, tracking and
remediation, which then also allows for guidance and support for potentially
affected stakeholders.
Methods for working with suppliers include:
Direct collaboration with Tier 1 suppliers and group companies.
Collaboration with other stakeholders for Tier 2 suppliers and deeper.
Engagement with stakeholders
Toyota partners with external stakeholders to fully understand and align with
societal expectations, while also maintaining legal compliance in all operations
including the supply chain.
2022 Priority Salient Risks
As a result of identifying and assessing our salient risks, Toyota has decided to
prioritize the following risks for 2022: migrant labor, child labor, harassment
and discrimination (diversity & inclusion).
if there are any other sudden or unforeseen salient risks that emerge in our
business, we may review our priorities and conduct ad hoc due diligence
activities.
Human Rights Due DiligencePolicy development and dissemination
Aim
Toyota’s Human Rights Policy applies to all executives and employees in
Toyota and its subsidiaries. We also expect our business partners, including
our suppliers, to understand and agree with this policy, and to work with us to
ensure that their business operations respect this policy. This policy includes:
Respect for internationally recognized Human Rights in line with the UNGP
and the Universal Declaration of Human Rights.
Compliance with international Human Rights obligations together with the
laws and regulations of the countries in which we operate.
Initiative
Development of Human Rights policies
The Human Rights policy development was supported by the top
management, and the policy was further developed utilizing feedback from
internal divisions, the supply chain, and overseas afliates. It was completed
with advice from 3rd party specialist Human Rights organizations.
Dissemination within the company
The policy was disseminated to all employees through the internal Human
Rights training contents.
P.62 Education Related to Human Rights
Support and training were provided to specic divisions like Purchasing,
Sales and Business Planning in order to integrate Human Rights within
policies and processes.
Example
This has so far led to the incorporation of specic Human Rights
statements within Toyota’s Supplier Sustainability Guidelines,
Dealer Basic Contracts, and into the new business planning
guidelines.

[Survey 2]
Through dialogue with external stakeholders, we recognized that a survey was
needed which focuses on foreign technical internship trainees,
*3
who are at high
risk of debt bonded labor, due to the following points.
The number of migrant workers had increased signicantly in Japan as a
whole and in Toyota’s domestic afliates as well
There was a risk that migrant workers hired by both the employment
agencies in the sending countries and the supervisory organizations in Japan
could result in forced labor due to exorbitant fees being charged, which
subsequently traps them in serious debt.
*3 Foreign Technical Internship Trainees are foreign workers sent to Japan for the purpose of technical skills
training. There are 158 operations in 86 job categories, and trainees are dispatched to various industries in the
hopes of acquiring much needed technical skills to be used in operations in their home countries upon return.
Survey scope
Group companies and their major Tier-1 suppliers
Toyota’s own major Tier-1 suppliers.
(The top 276 suppliers accounting for 90% of the total
procurement value.)
Survey description

Aim
Ensure decent and acceptable working conditions, which include
freedom of movement, fair treatment, and proper employment contracts
for migrant workers in our business operations and supply chain.
Initiative
Migrant labor has been identied as one of the salient issues since 2019.
As part of our due diligence activities, we have been working with non-
governmental organizations to ensure fair working conditions for migrant
workers within our afliates and suppliers both inside and outside Japan.
Guidelines and declaration development
Guidelines have been developed to help eliminate possible exploitation by
unscrupulous employment agencies charging high recruitment fees, as well
as ensuring freedom of movement, fair treatment, and proper employment
contracts for migrant workers.
Participation in the formulation of ASSC Tokyo Declaration 2020.
*1
*1 Set of 13 declarations created to enhance and respect the rights of migrant workers from the moment of
recruitment, during overseas employment, and until their safe return to their home countries. The “ASSC Tokyo
Declaration 2020” was developed with reference to the “Dhaka Principles,” regarded as the international norm
advocated by the International Organization for Migration and the International Labor Organization
ASSC Tokyo Declaration 2020
Risk Assessment
A task force was assembled to conduct comprehensive surveys to grasp
the current situation at Toyota subsidiaries both in Japan and overseas,
specically to determine the number of migrant workers. The following
surveys were conducted in 2020.

Initiatives for Flexible Work Styles
Aim
Promote exible workstyles without restrictions of time and location,
with a view to improving productivity and supporting employees in balancing
work with childcare/family care.
Initiative
Use of an FTL (Free Time & Location) system, which enables teleworking.
At workplaces where teleworking is difcult, the system for reduced working
hours has been enhanced to support balancing work with childcare/nursing care.
If an employee wants permission to conduct a side business, decide whether
or not it is acceptable according to criteria based on safety consideration,
condentiality, non-competition, duty of good faith, etc.
Initiatives for Anti-harassment
Aim
Toyota does not tolerate any form of harassment, such as sexual
harassment, power harassment, or any act that harms the dignity of
any individual.
Aim to create a workplace where all employees can work happily.
Initiative
Employment rules specify clearly the prohibition of harassment and disciplinary
provisions in the case of harassment.
The Toyota Code of Conduct clearly states that Toyota should not tolerate any
form of harassment.
Internal anti-harassment training programs for all employees, from executives
to regular employees, to ensure compliance with the code of conduct.
Toyota’s external and internal hotlines have been integrated into the “Speak
up” Hotline as a system that enables early detection and resolution of
employees’ problems and workplace issues.
Have training conducted by psychology experts to look deeply into the mental
side of individuals, with the aim of not only preventing harassment but also
helping the creation of workplaces where members can work happily.
P.109 "Speak Up" Hotline
Initiatives for Wage
Aim
To secure necessary human resources and build a sense of security for
employees, pay appropriate level of wages.
Initiative
If the minimum wage increases, revise employee compensation as necessary.
To improve the compensation for temporary workers, Toyota provides family
allowance, subsidizes meal costs, grants special leave, and established
channels allow for the conversion of variable workforce employees to
permanent employees, making their conditions equivalent to those of
permanent employees.
Initiatives for Working Hours
Aim
Secure, manage and efciently allocate work hours based on laws/
regulations and labor practices so that employees can have a sense of
security and exibly respond to uctuations in production.
Initiative
Based on thorough labor-management communication, set exible working
hours appropriate for actual conditions, such as the situation of each
workplace and the characteristics of individual work. In the case of excess
working hours above legal limits, Toyota follows due process relating to legal
procedures.
[Response based on the survey]
In order to mitigate any possible Human Rights infringements associated with
the migration of technical internship trainees, we decided to promote the
following activities
Corrective actions for unreasonable fees borne by migrant workers that
induced the possibility of forced labor.
Working closely with suppliers to share best practices to avoid Human
Rights infringements of migrant workers.
Supporting supplier due diligence for agencies acquiring migrant workers
in coordination with NGOs.
Collaboration with JP-MIRAI
In 2020, Toyota was part of the initial body that led to the establishment
of the “Japan Platform for Migrant Workers toward a Responsible
and Inclusive Society (JP-MIRAI),”* which has now grown to be a multi-
stakeholder framework for resolving issues faced by migrant workers in
Japan.
In May 2022, JP-MIRAI launched a grievance mechanism trial for migrant
workers.
This mechanism aims to resolve issues in an appropriate and timely manner,
and has the support and cooperation of Toyota.
Contents of the services provided:
a multilingual web portal and application that provide relevant information
on living and working in Japan
a grievance mechanism for making complaints
support for cases that are likely to develop into serious problems
an Alternative Dispute Resolution (ADR) mechanism
* Over 400 members, consisting of various stakeholders such as private companies, local governments, NPOs,
academics, and lawyers.

Initiatives for Precarious Work
Aim
Our businesses require personnel equipped with both advanced skills and
with a deep understanding of Toyota’s values. In order to achieve this, a
long period of time is required to cultivate such personnel. Therefore, Toyota
strives to provide stable employment even when the external environment
is harsh.
Due to demand uctuations in the automotive industry, Toyota hires temporary
personnel for xed periods, based on the customs and labor laws of each
region, while also ensuring fair working conditions.
Initiative
Based on the customs and labor laws of each region, Toyota practices the
following:
Conrms the composition of employees at afliates in various countries,
and for non-permanent employment relationships, we identify afliates
requiring prioritized examination.
Dispatches associates to identied afliate sites, where they implement
improvements such as reallocations and reviews of employment rules
related to contract terms where necessary. (2019–2021: 3 cases)
Initiatives for Freedom of Association
Aim
Toyota’s “Respect for People” management-philosophy aims to respect
individual capabilities, ways of thinking, and creativity, and harness them fully.
Based on the Universal Declaration of Human Rights, we respect our
employees’ right to freely associate while also respecting their right not
to be compelled to belong to an association in compliance with the laws
of the countries in which we operate.
We take every opportunity to engage in thorough dialogue with employees
and build healthy labor relations regardless of whether or not there is a union.
Initiative
Along with the collective agreements in place with our unionized afliate
companies both in Japan and overseas, we also have Labor-Management
Joint Declarations established in Japan (1962), Thailand (1993), Indonesia
(2004) and Brazil (2015) as a global framework, in order to agree on a universal
philosophy of labor relations.
Cooperation with subsidiaries:
In order to determine the level of communication with employees and other
issues related to freedom of association, we periodically send out and
collect questionnaires from our subsidiaries and request that improvement
be made to policies and activities based on the responses.
For subsidiaries that required concentrated initiatives, associates from
Toyota Motor Corporation were dispatched to review policies and activities,
and worked with the subsidiary in question to enhance communication with
and training for employees regarding Toyota’s policies concerning freedom
of association and legal compliance.
Cooperation with suppliers:
As a part of its global due diligence activities, Toyota investigated some
cases of possible infringement on Freedom of Association within the supply
chain, and recommended corrective actions. (2019–2021: 3 cases)
Unionization situation:
Countries with Unionized Operations (only countries/regions with
manufacturing): 91% (20/22 countries)
Initiatives for Child Labor
Aim
Toyota does not accept any forms of child labor, which deprives children
of educational opportunities and inhibits their growth and development.
In line with international norms, we adhere to the following conditions:
The minimum age for employment shall be 15 years of age, the legal
minimum age for employment, or the age of completing compulsory
education, whichever is the highest under the local applicable laws and
regulations.
Do not use employees below 18 years of age for hazardous work.
Bona de job training or apprenticeship programs permitted under
applicable local laws and regulations.
Initiative
Enhance due diligence activity in the high-risk sector of child labor in our
supply chain.

Initiative
Investigation and disclosure on the use of Conict
Minerals (Compliance with the U.S. Dodd-Frank Act)
Since 2013 Toyota has been conducting a reasonable country-of-origin
inquiry every year with due diligence throughout its global supply chain in
accordance with the OECD Due Diligence Guidance for Responsible Supply
Chains of Minerals from Conict-affected and High-risk Areas.
We request that the suppliers make corrections if there are any errors and/
or omissions in their responses, in order to improve the effectiveness of our
efforts.
In cooperation with the Responsible Minerals Initiative (RMI), Toyota Motor
North America (U.S.) has been engaging in the activities of the Conict-free
Sourcing Working Group and the working group of the Automotive Industry
Action Group (AIAG) on conict minerals originating from the Democratic
Republic of the Congo.
Example
Background surveys of smelters/reners, prodding smelters/
reners to participate in the Responsible Minerals Assurance
Process (RMAP).
Conict Minerals Report
Responsible Cobalt Procurement
Toyota has been advancing activities to clarify the supply chain related to
batteries, a major component using cobalt, using the Cobalt Reporting
Template, or CRT, provided by RMI, and has identied several smelters (as
of March 31, 2020). We will continue conducting investigation.
If any risk is identied as a result of the survey, we will implement appropriate
measures to mitigate the risk.
By participating in activities of the RMI Cobalt Working Group, TMNA (U.S.)
has been encouraging smelters/reners to acquire certicates.
Responsible Mineral Procurement
Aim
Toyota has formulated its Policies and Approaches to Responsible Mineral Sourcing based on the OECD Due Diligence Guidance for Responsible Supply Chains of
Minerals from Conict-affected and High-risk Areas. Based on these policies, Toyota has been implementing measures to avoid human rights issues, such as child
labor and forced labor.

consideration of both the regional and global environmental issues.
Toyota’s Basic Purchasing Policies
1. Fair Competition Based on an Open-door Policy
Toyota is open and fair to any and all suppliers, regardless of nationality, size, or whether they have done
business with us before. We evaluate suppliers by quality, technological capabilities, and reliability in
delivering the required quantities on time, and their efforts in addressing social responsibilities, such as
environmental issues.
2. Mutual Benet Based on Mutual Trust
We develop mutual benet in long-term relationships. To foster trust, we engage in close communication
with suppliers.
3. Localization with Good Corporate Citizenship

P. 6 Promoting Sustainability
Sharing Toyota Supplier Sustainability Guidelines
Importance of sustainability initiatives is communicated towards
suppliers with a request that suppliers carry out their business activities in
line with the Sustainability Guidelines (established in 2009, last revision in
November 2021).
Revisions in 2021: Sections related to the environment and human rights
were expanded to reect the increasing importance of environmental and
human rights issues.
Over 90% of Toyota’s suppliers in Japan have added their legal
representative sign to the list of suppliers that support the purpose of
the Guidelines (as of July 2022).
The Guidelines clearly indicate that suppliers in Tier-1 must expand the
implementation of the Guidelines to suppliers in Tier-2 and beyond in order
to disseminate these principles throughout the supply chain.
The Guidelines have also been implemented globally to overseas suppliers
through regional purchasing divisions.
Toyota Supplier Sustainability Guidelines
Compliance and Implementation of the Guidelines
Checks using self-inspection sheets
All Toyota suppliers are requested to periodically check the status of their
implementation using a self-inspection sheet.
Major Tier-1 suppliers (approx. 350 companies as of October 2020), which
account for over 90% of our purchasing volume in Japan, are asked to
submit the results of their self-inspections so that Toyota can conrm the
progress of their initiatives.
Self-inspections based on the latest Guidelines (revised in November 2021)
are scheduled for implementation in the near future.
Responses when problems are identied
The facts related to the issue are investigated and, if an issue is identied,
we will communicate with the suppliers concerned and ask them to make
improvements.
If no improvements are made, business relationship may be reconsidered.
To prevent issue reoccurrence at other suppliers, notices explaining the
issue are sent and suppliers are asked to implement preventative measures.
In 2020, our company asked suppliers to provide better assistance to
foreign technical internship trainees who were unable to return to their
home countries during the COVID-19 pandemic.
Preventing Bribery
In order to eliminate all forms of bribery, Anti-Bribery Guidelines have been
adopted and shared with suppliers.
Anti-Bribery Guidelines
Supplier Hotline
An anonymous hotline has been established for suppliers to report any actions
that could potentially violate laws, regulations, and/or business norms.

Development of Automated Driving Technology
Began implementing research and development into automated driving
technology in the 1990s.
Toyota’s unique approach to automated driving, known as the “Mobility
Teammate Concept”, seeks to create a friendly relationship between people
and vehicles that allows them to communicate and assist each other.
Automated driving technology is not intended to take driving away from
humans or replace human drivers. Instead, it is designed to achieve true
safety, peace-of-mind, and freedom of mobility by establishing people and
cars as trusted partners that can share the joy of driving, and take over
driving duties as necessary.
Toyota is advancing R&D into automated driving technologies not only for
personally owned vehicles (POVs), but also in the eld of mobility as a service
(MaaS).
One of the rst companies to launch advanced automated driving
technology into the market for vehicles sold to corporate customers.
Data collected from these vehicles will then be collected, analyzed, and fed
back into development to further evolve automated driving technologies
for POVs.

*1 Security by design: Design approach that denes the security requirements needed for safe system operations,
beginning from the planning and design phases of an information system, and which aims to reliably incorporate
these requirements into the information system through the development processes, moving away from the
approach of implementing security countermeasures only after a problem has been discovered.
*2 Layered defense: Security practice of combining multiple defense “layers” to enhance security so that an attack
is not successful even if one layer is penetrated.
*3 UN R155: Regulations concerning cybersecurity, which were adopted at the World Forum for the Harmonization
of Vehicle Regulations (WP29) in June 2020

employees of in-house contract companies, and employees of suppliers
related to plant construction work, under the Occupational Safety and Health
Rules.
Initiative
Initiatives for The Three Pillars of Safety
The Three Pillars of Safety
Safe People
Promoting the development of human resources who
are capable of predicting risks and thinking and acting in
compliance with rules
Workplace leaders demonstrate a safety- rst attitude on a
daily basis. Safety education focuses on the experiences
and past actions of former employees, and is designed to
encourage current employees to look at their awareness and
behavior on a daily basis to ensure that all employees are
“safe people ”
Safe Work (Risk
Management)
Reducing and managing high-risk tasks to eliminate all serious
accidents
Employees implement the 4S methodology: seiri (sorting),
seiton (straightening), seiso (cleaning), and seiketsu (clean).
They also evaluate safety risks in the workplace before
implementing standardization based on the workability of
each task
Safe Place/
Environments
Aiming to build positive and worker-friendly processes,  nd
troubles and take quick decisions and actions
The work environment, which is managed by statutory
environmental measurement, is signi cantly affected by the
production equipment, season and other factors. Therefore,
measures for equipment are implemented according to the
predetermined priority order

Global Safety Meeting
Managers in charge of health and safety in each region attend a meeting
(six times a year).
Attendees discuss responses to common issues and share examples of
effective responses.
When a new ofce is established, the company works together with suppliers
to advance safety measures in terms of premises, buildings, and equipment
installation while ensuring compliance with both legal requirements in the
relevant country and construction work safety rules and equipment safety
standards, both of which are common to global Toyota.

Initiatives to Create a More Worker-friendly Workplace
Environment (Preventing Musculoskeletal Disorders)
Enhancing initiatives to create workplace environments that are more
friendly to workers in every region with consideration for all those
involved in production activities, regardless of age, gender, or physical
characteristics
Measures to prevent lower back and hand pain from repetitive tasks include
easy-to-assemble components and worker-friendly production equipment
and work methods. We also visualize the condition of employees by offering
physical care to employees on-site and a system to provide support when
pain occurs.

Executive Compensation
Aim
An important means to encourage executives to contribute to decision-
making aimed at sustainable growth into the future, to transforming Toyota
into a “mobility company”, and to resolving social challenges including the
SDGs through various initiatives.
Initiative
Toyota’s executive compensation system is determined based on the following policy.
It should be a system that encourages Members of the Board of Directors
to work to improve the medium- to long-term corporate value of Toyota.
It should be a system that can maintain compensation levels that will allow
Toyota to secure and retain talented personnel.
It should be a system that motivates Members of the Board of Directors to
promote management from the same viewpoint as our shareholders with a
stronger sense of responsibility as corporate managers.
Remuneration system
The Board of Directors decides by resolution the policy for
determining remuneration for and other payments to each member
of the Board of Directors
Remuneration is effectively linked to corporate performance
while reecting individual job responsibilities and performance
Remuneration standards in each member’s home country are also
taken into account when determining remuneration levels and
payment methods
Remuneration for Outside Members of the Board of Directors and
Audit & Supervisory Board Members consists only of xed payments.
As a result, this remuneration is not readily impacted by business
performance, helping to ensure independence from management
Remuneration
for Members
of the Board
of Directors
Maximum cash
compensation
3.0 billion yen per year (of which, the maximum amount payable to Outside
Members of the Board of Directors is 0.3 billion yen per year)
Maximum share
compensation
4.0 billion yen per year
Remuneration for Audit &
Supervisory Board Members
30 million yen or less per month
Method of determining remuneration
Directors with
Japanese Citizenship
(excluding Outside
Members of the
Board of Directors)
The total amount of remuneration (total amount of xed remuneration
and performance-based remuneration) received by each member of
the board of directors in a year is determined based on consolidated
operating income, the uctuation of the market capitalization of
Toyota, and individual performance evaluation
Directors with Foreign
Citizenship (excluding
Outside Members
of the Board of
Directors)
Fixed remuneration and performance-based remuneration are set
based on the remuneration levels and structures that allow Toyota to
secure and retain talented personnel
Performance-based remuneration is set based on consolidated
operating income, the uctuation of the market capitalization of
Toyota, and individual performance
There are cases where Toyota provides income tax compensation for
certain members of the Board of Directors in light of the difference in
income tax rates with those of his or her home country
Securities Report “Executive Compensation, etc.”
Internal Control
Aim
Establish a system for ensuring the appropriateness of business
operations as a corporate group and the proper implementation of that
system in accordance with the “Basic Policies on Establishing Internal
Controls.”
Initiative
Integrate the principles of problem identication and continuous
improvement into the business operation process and train employees
who will put these principles into practice.
Inspect the establishment and implementation of internal controls, each
business year.
Conrm that the organizational units responsible for implementing internal
controls are functioning autonomously and are enhancing internal controls
as necessary.

Initiatives to Mitigate the Impact of Disasters on
Buildings and Equipment
We work to mitigate the impact of disasters on buildings and equipment
in order to reduce any human injury and property damage in the event of a
disaster and resume production immediately after shifting to the business
restoration phase.
Buildings:
Our new buildings in Japan suf ciently meet the latest earthquake-resistance
standards. Furthermore, each of our buildings built according to former
earthquake-resistance standards has received earthquake-resistance testing
and been retro tted as needed.
Production equipment and the like:
We constantly identify hazards, such as collapse,  re and a loss of power
in the event of a disaster, and risks that may affect manufacturing quality
while taking work processes and the characteristics of the machinery
into consideration. To eliminate the identi ed hazards and risks, we make
continuous efforts to incorporate reasonable measures into equipment
speci cations and operational procedures.
The know-how regarding the mitigation of the impact of disasters on buildings
and equipment is being put to use in assessing risks and devising measures
at af liates in each country and region.
Humanitarian Aid and Early Recovery for Disaster-
affected Regions
Toyota has concluded comprehensive disaster support agreements
with local governments (Toyota City, Miyoshi City, Tahara City, Hekinan City,
and Susono City).
Humanitarian support and regional recovery assistance are to be provided
under mutual cooperation with local governments. Toyota is preparing
relevant structures by incorporating necessary provisions in its BCP and
conducting joint training with the local governments.
Details of the major support items
Rescue and relief in a disaster
Provide temporary evacuation facilities to local residents
Provide food, drinking water, and daily necessities for distribution through
local governments (local residents)
Support cargo handling at municipal relief supply facilities
Provide space necessary for restoration of local infrastructure (water
