[Reference] Abolition of resolutions at the General Meeting of Employees

When a director or an employee makes a proposal for a decision at the General Meeting of Employees, if all employees express their consent in writing or by electromagnetic records (email body, its attached file, CD-R, etc.), it is deemed that there has been a resolution at the General Meeting of Employees to approve the proposal. If even one person disagrees, you will not be able to vote, so be careful.
