Initiatives for Customers
(Responsibilities to Customers)

Policies and Basic Concept

The Nippon Rent-A-Car Service Group will fulfill its responsibilities to customers by providing vehicles to them and to partner companies in accordance with the Corporate Conduct Charter, which defines our corporate conduct, and the Action Guidelines, which lay out the principles all officers and employees are expected to observe.

Structure for Promoting the Initiatives

The Nippon Rent-A-Car Service Group daily compiles diverse data and customer opinions by conducting customer satisfaction (CS) surveys about our services. Issues and areas for improvement pointed out in the survey results are mainly discussed by the CS Promotion Division, while the Management Meeting and other organs make decisions on modifying or adding measures related to the provision of our services.
We strive to guarantee quality in three major areas: vehicles, rental locations, and customer service. Customer-friendly services and meeting their needs always come first when and wherever we operate, and we work in concert to increase the value of using vehicles and provide outstanding customer service.
