Violation

Machine-translated summary — verify against original

Nissan Motor Co., Ltd. was advised under the Subcontractor Payment Delay Prevention Law by the Ministry of Economy, Trade and Industry on March 7, 2024. The company was found to have reduced subcontractor payments by about 3 billion yen from January 2021 to April 2023 for 36 subcontractors involved in manufacturing automotive parts. The operation of 'rebates' in the context of subcontractor payments was considered a reduction of subcontractor payments (Article 4, Paragraph 1, Item 3 of the law), leading to the recommendation based on Article 7, Paragraph 2 of the law. This action was reported as a violation of fair trade practices.
