Asbestos and PCBs  (Ricoh/Japan)
As for asbestos used at Ricoh's business sites and facilities, a survey was conducted on sprayed asbestos. Measures to prevent dispersal, such as containment and enclosure,
have been taken at all relevant sites and the substance has been confirmed at a level that will not negatively affect human beings, people in adjacent neighborhoods or employees.
We will continue our systematic efforts for improvement and removal of asbestos. In the meantime, Ricoh has surveyed all PCB-containing products held by Ricoh, and has managed them and completed notification in compliance with relevant laws and regulations.
In fiscal 2008, related measures were introduced at three business sites. Ricoh plans to introduce similar measures at other sites successively and complete their disposal by fiscal 2016.
