Hitachi Group Code of Ethics and Business Conduct

Integrity, together with Safety and Quality, constitutes our license to operate. Integrity is the foundation of our business practices and interactions, and to build and strengthen the desired Integrity mindset we are focusing on introducing essential tools in the organization.

Working toward a common goal of maintaining Hitachi’s reputation for operating with honesty and fairness, the global Ethics and Compliance team, in conjunction with representatives from group companies, created this single, universal Hitachi Group Code of Ethics and Business Conduct. The Hitachi Group Code of Ethics and Business Conduct consists of rules and principles to assist leaders and employees in making decisions and acting ethically and in line with the Hitachi Identity.

Please note that as of October 1st 2026, there is a new Hitachi Code of Ethics and Business Conduct.

Hitachi Energy is committed to fostering a culture where integrity is woven into the fabric of everything we do. We want integrity embedded in our people, our businesses and processes. This means acting responsibly as individuals and as a company. We regularly evaluate our culture of integrity, and will continue raising the bar relentlessly.

Andrew Law, Chief Legal and Integrity Officer, member of the Executive Committee
