JEA - Japan EHS Audit Co., Ltd.

What is JEA?

Japan EHS Audit Co., Ltd. (JEA) is a specialized firm focusing on EHS (Environment, Health, and Safety) within the ESG (Environmental, Social, and Governance) framework, providing expert audits and consulting.

Experts well-versed in domestic and international regulations and global standards lead your company to solutions for challenges ranging from current status evaluation to correction, system construction, and continuous support.

By utilizing AI technology, we have evolved EHS audits, which previously relied on the subjective judgment of human auditors, into high-quality audits with objectivity and consistency. Also, through Japanese-English bilingual support, we realize seamless support for global companies. This enables us to provide EHS audit services faster, more efficiently, and at a lower price with excellent cost performance than ever before.

JEA goes beyond mere "defensive" risk management, positioning EHS as an "offensive" strategy for enhancing corporate value, and continues to be a partner strongly supporting your sustainable growth.

Bridge between Global EHS Standards and
Japanese Market

Are you struggling to implement EHS policies deployed from overseas parent companies or global headquarters because they do not match the actual situation or laws and regulations in Japan? Or are you feeling frustrated because you cannot accurately report the excellent initiatives and issues of your Japanese bases to the headquarters in English?

Japan EHS Audit Co., Ltd. (JEA) exists to be that "bridge". JEA experts are well-versed in Western safety and health standards such as US OSHA, EU directives, UK HSE, and international codes of conduct like RBA and SA8000, while deeply understanding the complex requirements of domestic laws such as Japan's Industrial Safety and Health Act, Chemical Substance Control Law, and Air Pollution Control Act.

JEA's support is not just language translation. We understand the local culture, practices, and the philosophy underlying the laws and regulations, and localize the headquarters' policies into a form that the Japanese site can accept and execute.

Consistent Audit Quality
Realized by Technology

"There were no problems in last year's audit, but this year I received a serious indication as soon as the person in charge changed." Such "variation" in audit quality is a serious concern for many companies.

To solve this fundamental issue, JEA has built a unique audit system that fuses people and technology. In JEA's audit process, on-site auditors focus on collecting objective facts and evidence (photos, documents, hearing records). All collected information is immediately aggregated into a cloud system, and the final judgment on conformity to laws and standards and risk level determination is made by a team of experienced experts at the headquarters with the support of AI.

This EHS-AI has learned a database of over 4,700 past indications that led to industrial accidents and legal violations, and strongly supports expert judgment by searching for similar cases and presenting relevant legal articles.

Strategic EHS Partner
Enhancing Corporate Value

EHS is no longer just a defensive activity to fulfill costs and obligations. It is an "offensive strategic investment" directly linked to enhancing corporate value.

JEA is a strategic partner that looks beyond legal compliance, redefines your EHS activities in the context of sustainability management, and contributes to enhancing corporate value. We support everything from materiality analysis to setting specific sustainability goals (KPIs) and information disclosure based on international standards such as GRI and SASB.

Also, JEA's "EHS Report Assurance Service" is a service that verifies and guarantees the reliability of EHS-related data and achievements described in your integrated reports and sustainability reports as a third party.

EHS consultants belonging to JEA have faced and solved EHS issues for many companies and organizations over many years. With specific proposals based on knowledge proven in the field and objective data, we strongly support your sustainable growth.

Our AI-assisted audit system ensures consistent and reproducible evaluations free from human subjectivity.

Supply Chain Audit

Corporate social responsibility extends beyond your company to the entire supply chain.

We plan and execute second-party audits for suppliers and contractors based on international norms like RBA and SA8000. Especially in waste management, we thoroughly identify compliance risks such as illegal dumping by evaluating local disposal sites.

We build robust management systems and BCPs to shift from ad-hoc responses to continuous performance improvement.

We support ISO 14001, ISO 45001, ISO 9001, and other certifications from current status analysis to documentation and audit response.
